This document discusses how today's students, known as digital natives, think and learn differently than previous generations due to their constant exposure to technology from a young age. It notes they are adept at tasks like social networking and accessing information online. The document also outlines several theories about how students learn best, including constructivism, project-based learning, and connectivism, all of which emphasize hands-on, collaborative activities supported by technology connections. It concludes that schools face the challenge of employing these types of deeper learning approaches while also meeting standardization requirements.

Paper presented at EDEN 2015 International Conference in Budapest 14-17 June 2016
The concept of virtual mobility can be defined as a set of ICT supported activities that realise or facilitate international, collaborative experiences in a context of teaching and/or learning it. Since 2008, the authors have offered TalkTech, an online collaboration enabling students from their universities to research technology trends, share their experiences, and create multimedia objects to present their findings (Frydenberg & Andone, 2010). As members of international teams, they must produce a viable digital media product created working with international partners located on another continent. Throughout the six-week project they must select appropriate digital tools to support with their communication and collaboration efforts, manage time zones and technologies, and track their progress. The purpose of this collaborative project is to create a controlled work environment which models the global enterprise, where the use of web-based collaboration and communication tools are commonplace. The analysis in this paper will show how this project supports Wheeler's characteristics of digital literacy (Wheeler, 2012).

4. 21st Century Learners Social networking Positives: ability to connect with others that share similar interests Negatives: untrue information (re. –personality belief that there are no consequences for lying on line Employers & universities often browse to evaluate candidates character
5. 21st Century Learners Business focusing on young people & how they use technology—Vtech Bottom line- young people use technology more often and in more ways than older generations (teachers)
6. How Children Get Information Social nature of students TV –passive Internet = interactive Social activities found in blogs, email, instant messaging & social networking Ability to belong to multiple social networks – at any time Information comes to students – RSS, aggregators, syndication, provide automated updates about user-specified info
7. How Children Get Information Hypertext– links to other information endless possibilities Students come to school with knowledge of new technologies expect to learn in school the way they do out of school
8. The Customization Generation E.g.-students change desk top pictures, changes menu setting, change curser, adjust seat heights New tools allow students to customize what and how they learn Goal: to help students use and enjoy technology in order to learn
9. Access to Online Tools & Services 1996– access = 5 students/ computer Today – one to one student s need access where & when they need it Schools with one-to-one access reported academic improvement, higher attendance, fewer discipline problems & improved student writing skills
10. Understanding Learning Blooms Taxonomy Six cognitive processes Revised Blooms Taxonomy Two dimensional to reflect relevance to 21st century work Knowledge Dimension Cognitive Dimension
11. Constructivism Learners actively construct and generate new ideas or concepts based upon current & past knowledge Students build on what they already know Web research, collaboration
12. Project Based Learning Promotes in-depth learning via inquiry-based methods to engage students in issues & questions that are rich, real, & relevant Web Communication, collaboration, creation of social networks, sharing
14. The Challenge To find ways to support in-depth learning & increased student achievement while also employing a variety of measures Standardization does not require higher order thinking skills
