3. The origin of the term Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants (by Marc Prensky From On the Horizon (MCB University Press, Vol. 9 No. 5, October 2001) Marc Prensky is an internationally acclaimed thought leader, speaker, writer, consultant, and game designer in the critical areas of education and learning.

4. DIGITAL NATIVES by Marc Prensky ‘singularity’ …have grown up with the technology; K-college grads have spent 5000 hours/10 000 hours/20 0000 doing what? Match the numbers with the pictures Computer games, email, the Internet, cell phones and instant messaging are integral parts of their lives.

5. How would you comment on the following statements/phrases/terms in the context of digital natives : Different kinds of experiences lead to different brain structures; N-[for Net]-gen or D-[for digital]-gen “digital immigrant accent’’ to the Digital Natives – school often feels pretty much as if we ‟ ve brought in a population of heavily accented, unintelligible foreigners to lecture them.’’ “Www.hungry.com” said a kindergarten student recently at lunchtime. “Every time I go to school I have to power down,”

6. Digital Natives characteristics by MP a) Digital Natives are used to receiving information really fast. b) They like to parallel process and multi-task. c) They prefer their graphics before their text rather than the opposite. d) They prefer random access (like hypertext). e) They function best when networked. f) They thrive on instant gratification and frequent rewards. g) They prefer games to “serious” work. (Does any of this sound familiar?) Task: Think about these issues in the context of teaching English in a primary school. Give specific examples of teaching practices you would incorporate.

7. Digital Immigrants who themselves learned – and so choose to teach – slowly, step-by-step, one thing at a time, individually, and above all, seriously; Digital Immigrants don ‟ t believe their students can learn successfully while watching TV or listening to music, because they (the Immigrants) can ‟ t. So what should happen? Should the Digital Native students learn the old ways, or should their Digital Immigrant educators learn the new?

8. Methodology and Content METHODOLOGY o communicate in the language and style of their students. o doesn’t mean changing the meaning of what is important, or of good thinking skills o going faster, less step-by step, more in parallel, with more random access, among other things CONTENT o Legacy content and Future content o “Legacy” content includes reading, writing, arithmetic, logical thinking, understanding the writings and ideas of the past, etc – all of our “traditional” curriculum. o “Future” content is to a large extent, not surprisingly, digital and technological. But while it includes software, hardware, robotics, nanotechnology, genomics, etc. it also includes the ethics, politics, sociology, languages and other things that go with them.

9. It ‟ s not actually clear to me which is harder – “learning new stuff” or “learning new ways to do old stuff.” I suspect it ‟ s the latter. Marc Prensky

10. Homework Make a short video using your phone with young children from your family or neughbourhood that can show us what they know to say, sing, write, understand, do… in English. With the video you should attach a document in which you write down your observations in the context of digital natives. And of course post it to Trello.
