- 3. THE DIGITreAL WORLD Natives Immigrants Digital Natives. Our students today are all “native speakers” of the digital language of computers, video games and the Internet. Those of us who were not born into the digital world but have, at some later point in our lives, become fascinated by and adopted many or most aspects of the new technology are, and always will be compared to them, Digital Immigrants. Prensky, 2001.
- 4. THE DIGITreAL WORLD Residents Visitors We propose that Visitors understand the Web as akin to an untidy garden tool shed. Significantly, Visitors are unlikely to have any form of persistent profile online which projects their identity into the digital space. They are anonymous, their activity invisible to all but the databases running the Web sites they use. White and Le Cornu, 2011
- 5. THE DIGITreAL WORLD Residents Visitors Residents, on the other hand, see the Web as a place, perhaps like a park or a building in which there are clusters of friends and colleagues whom they can approach and with whom they can share information about their life and work. A proportion of their lives is actually lived out online where the distinction between online and off–line is increasingly blurred. White and Le Cornu, 2011

Editor's Notes
- Plan: tell you about the module, and the model, and show you an online tool I used for assessment. WHISTLESTOP tour—hopefully lots of Q&A after.
- Research led; very concept-heavy…bordering on philosophy; popular, but intellectually demanding. THEREFORE keen to get them seeing the concepts in practice and testing against their everyday experience—1) because it helps grasp theory and 2) because that’s what makes a difference! SO THOUGHT ABOUT THIS THROUGH THE MODEL OF THE DIGITreAL WORLD
