Digital Native or Immigrant?
Digital Native:Used to receiving information really fast. They like to parallel process and multi-task. They prefer their graphics before their text rather
than the opposite. They prefer random access (like hypertext). They function best when networked. They thrive on instant gratification and frequent
rewards. They prefer games to "serious" work. Prensky, Marc. “Digital Native, Digital Immigrants.” 2001. http://www.marcprensky.com/writing/Prensky%20-%20Digital%20Natives,%20Digital%20Immigrants%20-
