digital immigrants

Post by dman5000 »

this is a clip of something i had to read for school about the modern youth growing up with all the digital stuff around from birth and everyone else who saw it happen. this particular paragraph made me laugh when i read it...

"As Digital Immigrants learn – like all immigrants, some better than others – to adapt to their environment, they always retain, to some degree, their "accent," that is, their foot in the past. The “digital immigrant accent” can be seen in such things as turning to the Internet for information second rather than first, or in reading the manual for a program rather than assuming that the program itself will teach us to use it"
