History of the phrase “digital native” First used my Marc Prensky in “Digital
Natives, Digital Immigrants” (2001)He has since updated this to “digital
wisdom” as of 2012 John Parry Barlow said in 1996, “You
are terrified of your own children, since they are natives in a world where you will always be immigrants.”

What is Cura Personalis? Help our students understand their inherent
human dignity Help our students reach their greatest human
potential Teach our students to share their experience and
knowledge with others To act in a way, ourselves, that reflects this growth Do we do these things in regards to technology? In regards to technology, do we have to write
statements that begin with “Help our students avoid…” or “Teach our students not to…”?

world, for all intents and purposes

What technology are they familiar with?
Modern students come in to the classroom fluent in:EntertainmentCommunicationSocial Media
Most have never been taught how to use technology for any other purpose
![Page 8: Concerning Digital Natives. History of the phrase “digital native” First used my Marc Prensky in “Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants” (2001) He has.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071716/56649e855503460f94b87dd8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
How is this going to look?
![Page 9: Concerning Digital Natives. History of the phrase “digital native” First used my Marc Prensky in “Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants” (2001) He has.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071716/56649e855503460f94b87dd8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What are our hesitations?
![Page 10: Concerning Digital Natives. History of the phrase “digital native” First used my Marc Prensky in “Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants” (2001) He has.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071716/56649e855503460f94b87dd8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What does this mean for us?
Where does the mission of being counter-cultural come into play?
What specific technology objectives should we write into our respective curricula?
![Page 11: Concerning Digital Natives. History of the phrase “digital native” First used my Marc Prensky in “Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants” (2001) He has.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071716/56649e855503460f94b87dd8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What should the focus be?
Danah Boyd, author of “It’s Complicated”“the rhetoric of 'digital natives'" is dangerous
because it distorts the realities of kids' virtual lives, the result being that they don't learn what they need to know about online living
Reuben Loewy, “Living Online Lab”Students have “a distorted view of the digital
world. It is a view that reflects the fears of adults rather than the aspirations of youth.”

From a study by Shiang-Kwei Wang
“Students were not tech savvy in the classroom. Most were not very familiar with information and communication technology…designed to make information production and sharing easier. Their teachers…depended much more on using technology to solve daily problems, to improve productivity, and as learning aids.”

What do we need to do?
Students must be given the opportunity to use technology to:Solve problemsEnhance ProductivityDevelop Creativity
Therefore teachers must be given training on how to do this
![Page 14: Concerning Digital Natives. History of the phrase “digital native” First used my Marc Prensky in “Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants” (2001) He has.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071716/56649e855503460f94b87dd8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
What are the basics?
Students are now used to having immediate access to all the information
Proper technology useStudents are going to use whatever
technology is available to themThe teacher is responsible for
demonstrating proper use and giving opportunity for proper use

What does my classroom look like?
![Page 16: Concerning Digital Natives. History of the phrase “digital native” First used my Marc Prensky in “Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants” (2001) He has.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071716/56649e855503460f94b87dd8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Rockhurst High School
We are 1-to-1 with iPads I put note outlines online every day I fill in the notes on the board using
Apple TV I post a PDF of the completed notes
every day I post a video of the class every day Once the students have access to a
digital document, I never take it away
![Page 17: Concerning Digital Natives. History of the phrase “digital native” First used my Marc Prensky in “Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants” (2001) He has.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071716/56649e855503460f94b87dd8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
What do I use? MyHomework (app and website)
Google Drive (app and website)
Explain Everything (iPad app and in the Microsoft Store for tablets)
Notability (iPad app, might be added to the Microsoft Store)
MatLab (Mathematical Programming Software)
![Page 18: Concerning Digital Natives. History of the phrase “digital native” First used my Marc Prensky in “Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants” (2001) He has.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071716/56649e855503460f94b87dd8/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What is the benefit?
Students always have something they should be doing with their iPad
Students have access to all the pertinent information for my class
MatLab will help familiarize them with a new language
I still struggled with showing them how to take advantage of all of these resources, though
