 * Digital Natives Digital Immigrants**

Download an electronic copy of Marc Prensky's article "[|Digital Natives Digital Immigrants] ".

This article has been pigeonholed for staff to read. It is my intention that as the year progresses, that staff will no longer rely on receiving photocopied versions of the articles, but receive electronic copies instead.

The focus questions set for discussion on this article are: * How would you like your classroom to be after reading this document? * How can we cater for a multi-tasking world which allows students to learn how, when and what they want? * How can we present current curriculum learning for a digital native environment? * What attributes contribute towards a digital native learning environment? * What strategies can be used to enhance a digital native learner? * Where does education fit into the would our digital natives live in? * Strategies to merge "Legacy" content and "Future" content include... *Other comments you would like to make or questions you would like to ask...

Thanks to Jill Fitz for helping to write the focus questions for this reading.

You can respond to these questions in two ways. Either click on the **Discussion** tab at the top of the screen and discuss them there. They are named Q1 - Q7; or you can discuss directly using the wiki by clicking on the question and answering it on its new page. Either method is fine. Please note, that it is not necessary to write your name at the end of your contribution, however if you wish to do that, you are more than welcome!
