Editor's Notes
Marc Prensky is the author of Digital Game-Based Learning (McGraw-Hill 2001) and Founder and CEO of Games2Train.
First used the term digital native in a paper on the struggles teachers had in teaching the “new” students. They weren't paying attention, and didn´t seem to care much about studying the way the proffers where used to.
Even though we are not teachers, we have many similarities.
I say…
Last year (2014) was a tipping point, there are now more digital native Dr. than there are Dr. who are not digital native. Off cause many of our customers are the more experienced doctors who are not digital natives, but not for long.
Last year, one of our top TL was a 32 year old physician. He was not even a finished with his specialty training. But he was already the “digital media” editor for one of the most important scientific journals within this specific therapeutic area (Mikkel Fode, Urology, American journal of urology) Many of the more experienced Dr. looked at him (an some other young Dr.), because he (they) could find data and new knowledge in a fast pace that none of them had ever could before.
Digital natives are:
native speakers of the digital language
Grew up with videogames, internet, instant messaging, social medias, #, twitter handles
Their brains are effectively wired in a different manner
think and process information fundamentally different
Parallel process and multitask
prefer graphics before text
Prefer reading in print!
I will not go too much in depth with the three terms but briefly touch upon them in order to appreciate their differences
- To understand why digital plans are dead, we must understand the three terms “digital native”, “digital settler” and “digital immigrant”
The term digital native was coined and popularized by education consultant, Marc Prensky in his 2001 article entitled Digital Natives, Digital
- Different kinds of experiences lead to different brain structures
“digital native”, “digital generation”, “born digital” Born after 1980
The brains of Digital natives are wired differently than digital settlers or digital immigrants
Digiatl natives prefer reading in print! According to Michael S. Rosenwald, Washington post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/why-digital-natives-prefer-reading-in-print-yes-you-read-that-right/2015/02/22/8596ca86-b871-11e4-9423-f3d0a1ec335c_story.html)
… and who will invent tomorrows … ? Digital immigrants and digital natives could equally invent tomorrows business models, the question is who dares …
