Digital native

A digital native is a person who was born during or after the general introduction of digital technologies and through interacting with digital technology from an early age, has a greater understanding of its concepts. Alternatively, this term can describe people born during or after 1960s, as the Digital Age began at that time; but in most cases, the term focuses on people who grew up with the technology that became prevalent in the latter part of the 20th century and continues to evolve today. Other discourse identifies a digital native as a person who understands the value of digital technology and uses this to seek out opportunities for implementing it with a view to make an impact. This term has been used in several different contexts, such as education ( Bennett, Maton & Kervin 2008 ), higher education ( Jones & Shao 2011 ) and in association with the term New Millennium Learners ( OECD 2008 ). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_native
