"The Digital Ages of Man". Richard Naish.

• Technologies nowdays have made a big impact in our lives these days. With the upcoming generation nowdays, almost all teenagers are used to using technologies such as computers, notebook and ipods.

• These seems to be a problem for the lecturers and teachers because they are from the past generation and they have to adapt to the new method of teaching and adapt fast. There’s a ton of difference between the DNs (DIGITAL NATIVE LEARNERS) which are the upcoming generations and Dls (DIGITAL IMMIGRANTS TEACHERS) which are from the past generation of doing things, such as, the DNs prefer to multitask where as the Dls prefer to limited tasking.

• Whenever new technologies are invented, teachers and lectures have to adapt to the new method fast so that their student don’t get left behind in the new world of technologies. Its a problem to the Dls because they are used to their old habits of doing things. It’s a proven fact that as the days goes by, new technologies will be invented and the generation from the past will have to adapt to the new technologies or they will be left behind.

• So, it’s fair to say that every generation have their own way of doing things and the past generation will always have to play catch up with the upcoming generation or face being left behind in the new world of never ending technologies.
