Have you heard the terms digital native and digital immigrant, and placed yourself in one space or the other? Have you seen a generation divide in learning and teaching? The article ‘The Fallacy of Digital Natives’ explores these issues. One source quoted is the Berkman Center for Internet and Society (Harvard University) “Those who were not ‘born digital’ can be just as connected , if not more so, than their younger counterparts.”
A follow-up to this article is ‘Introducing the Digital Learning Quadrants’ where Dan Pontefract introduces “a classification that encompasses all ages and takes into account the realities of access and participation levels…”  (at http://www.danpontefract.com/?p=1309)

Both articles are worth checking out.
