Today’s learners appear smarter, yet they can’t read
as their parents do and they are addicted to the
internet.
This lesson involves on how to understand the digital
learners and what are their benefits in engaging this
kind of learners in technology based instructional
media.
Teachers/Educators
Generally use the traditional education
program which is applicable to the learners
in the past.
They fail to realize that the new learners
are information technology or digital
learners.
New Learners
Spend more time talking to friends over
the phone, sending text messages,
interacting through the social Internet
media e.g. Facebook, playing video games
and surfing the World Wide Web.
Scientists said that, there are positive benefits derived
from the use of information technology or digital
resources and these counterbalance possible negative
effects of technology on children. In addition, daily
exposure to high technology-personal computers, video
game gadgets, cellphones, and internet search sites-
stimulates the brain by strengthening and creating neural
circuits.
Furthermore, this current technological revolution is
creating an intellectual revolution, faster and better than
ever before. Knowledge is constructed uniquely and
individually in multiple ways and it is constructed through a
variety of tools, resources, experiences, and contexts.
19th century psychologist Jean Piaget presented a chart from childhood to
adulthood inclusive of the skills/learning pattern. Given the digital age, the
chart needs to be modified. Early stages includes computer-aided programs
nowadays. With the use of modern information technology, multitasking can
be developed by the learners. However, multitasking is needed in the
Professional field, dominated by the use of information technology.
Learning is internally controlled and mediated by the
learners and they bring unique prior knowledge,
experience, and beliefs to a learning situation.
Today’s generations of students are very dependent on
technology. Most of the activities in school require
computer skills. Assignments must be encoded, passing
of requirements through an email. Make a presentation
through PowerPoint, edit a video, make an account for
school purposes, and etc.
Most students are a visual
learner that’s why teachers
must use pictures, videos in
presenting a lesson to catch the
attention of the students.
Concerns of Today’s Learners
• Underdevelopment of new
learners along social face-to
face interaction skills.
• Multi tasking – performing
tasks simultaneously.
• Research shows multitasking
can be detrimental since this
prevents concentration and
the completion of specific
tasks .
Concerns of Today’s Learners
• Multitasking, however, characterizes
professional work in the new world of
information technology.
• Balancing of the good and detrimental
changes observed among new learners
of the information technology age.
