‘ 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 become fascinated by and adopted many…
… or most aspects of the new technology are, and always will be compared to them,  Digital Immigrants’ .
‘ Our students have changed radically.’
‘ Today’s students are no longer the people our educational system was designed to teach.’
‘ Computer games, email, the Internet, cell phones and instant messaging are  integral  parts of their lives.’
‘ Today’s students  think and process information fundamentally differently from their predecessors.’
‘ A really big  discontinuity has taken place…’
‘… there is absolutely no going back.’
How do you FEEL about these changes?
How can we  ADJUST   to this reality?
