Marc Prensky’s Digital Natives “Today’s students – K through college – represent the first generations to grow up with this new technology. They have spent their entire lives surrounded by and using computers, videogames, digital music players, video cams, cell phones, and all the other toys and tools of the digital age. Today’s average college grads have spent less than 5,000 hours of their lives reading, but over 10,000 hours playing video games (not to mention 20,000 hours watching TV). Computer games, , the Internet, cell phones and instant messaging are integral parts of their lives.” Games and Learning Marc Prensky “Digital Natives/Digital Immigrants” Bill and Peter Show 2007 – San Francisco, California
