Defining Digital Natives

“I've coined the term digital native to refer to today's students (2001). They are native speakers of technology, fluent in the digital language of computers, video games, and the Internet.”

Marc Prensky (2005/06). Listen to the Natives. Educational Leadership, v.63:4, p.8-13. http://www.ascd.org/authors/ed_lead/el200512_prensky.html

Who are Digital Natives?

IBM has never made typewriters. Caller ID has always been available on phones. Windows made IBM PCs user-friendly the year they were born. High definition television has always been available. GPS systems have always been available. What’s a fax? "Google" has always been a verb. Text messaging is their email. Computers have always suffered from viruses.They have done most of their search for the right college online.Cher hasn't aged a day.

Mashup ExampleNPR’s Day to Day program interviewed a musician this morning about creating content.

Mash-up artist Girl Talk has over 300 samples on his new album, Feed the Animals.

Its sole creator, Greg Gillis, says that he only has 100 MP3s on his laptop.

Gillis never pays for the use of his samples.

He doesn't ask permission.

He says he's covered by fair use laws.

Is he risking legal trouble with the labels and bands that he samples? LISTEN: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=95596414
