40Thursday November 3 2011
Basic online entertainment (online videos playing games)
E-commerce (online shopping banking and travel reservations)
Research and information gathering (product research news health and religious information searches)
Email and search
Active engagement with social media(visit SNS create SNS profile create blogs)
More advanced online entertainment (download videos music and podcasts)
More advanced communication and passive social media use (instant messaging visit SNS read blogs)
From State of the Internet 2009 Pew Internet Project Findings and Implications for Libraries
The vast majority of online adults from all generations uses email and search engines
While there are always exceptions older generations typically do not engage with the internet past e-commerce
The majority of teens and Gen Y use SNS but fewer maintain blogs Online adults older than Gen X are less likely to use SNS

Project Tomorrow Recommendations
bull Un-tether learning and leverage mobile devices to extend learning beyond the school day and meet all learners in their own world
bull Create new interactive participatory learning spaces using tools such as online classes gaming and simulations online tutors and virtual reality environments
bull Incorporate Web 20 tools into daily instruction especially those that develop collaborative or social-based learning and provide unique opportunities for students to be content developers
bull Expand digital resources in the classroom to add context and relevancy to learning experiences through new media tools
bull Get beyond the classroom walls and make learning truly experiential such as using high tech science instrumentation and creating podcasts with content experts
