数字土著 数字移民

Digital Natives Digital Immigrants

不同的经历产生不同的大脑认知结构。当今的学生,由于其生活环境和生活方式(数字化世界)的不同,他们的思维模式已经发生根本的改变,他们是"数字土著"的一代,他们的教育者则是"数字移民"。当今教育面临的一个最大的问题是:我们的这些作为"数字移民"的教育者,说着过时的语言(前数字化时代语言),正在吃力地教育一种全新语言的人群。为此,应改革教育方法与内容,教师必须学会用他们学生的语言和方式与之交流,并加强"未来"内容的教学,而"教育游戏"则是方法与内容最佳的结合体。

Different kinds of experiences lead to different brain structures. For the different living environment and living ways, today＇s students＇ brains have physically changed, they＇re Digital Natives, and their instructors are Digital Immigrants. The single biggest problem facing education today is that our Digital Immigrant instructors, who speak an outdated language （that of the pre-digital age）, are struggling to teach a population that speaks an entirely new language. Therefore, we need to reconsider both our methodology and our content, today＇s teachers have to learn to communicate in the language and style of their students, and emphasize teaching ＂future＂ content, edutainment is the very optimal combination.
