- Traditional teachers focus on in-person instruction and filling students' "knowledge holes" while digital learners are comfortable with multitasking and accessing information online. - While students may not extensively use new technologies like blogs for study, they are able to use technologies introduced in their courses. - Google provides free educational tools and trainings to help bridge the gap between traditional and digital education by offering organized, secure services like Classroom, YouTube for education, and drawing/slideshow tools.

educational use.

study purposes of many of the most discussed
new technologies such as Blogs, Wikis and 3D Virtual
Worlds.
