    Also, the 'right brain' and 'left brain' thing is completely inaccurate. The vast majority of the tasks he lists off actually involve *both* hemispheres. Most of what our two hemispheres does is roughly equivalent, and complex tasks frequently involve multiple brain areas working together simultaneously. Also, a lot of so-called 'left brain' tasks are extremely difficult for computers - what is easy or hard for a computer bears no resemblance to any pattern of human abilities.

    'Digital' is not a language. Most digital interaction is either non-linguistic or uses languages that predate digital technology (eg English). The only digital languages are programming languages, and most 'digital natives' will never master any programming languages.

    This guy has made some valid points regardless of where his sources come from. Unless you have kids you cannot begin to understand how quickly and in what direction their world is going in. I don't need a PhD to figure that out. Kids now are being born in a digital that didn't when I was a kid and it is affecting the way think and do things. It's great food for thought for all not just those in education.

    He's so desperately emphatic, I was afraid he was going to have a cardiac arrest before he finished his lecture! The poor guy reminds me of one of those naive tourists who attempt to make themselves understood among non-English speakers by speaking louder and louder while gesticulating frantically; this method never works of course. The locals are not deaf, they simply do not speak the same language.

    Same old Prensky stuff - some valid points, but a lot of over-generalization. Of course digital media change our brains, but not just in "digital natives". The fact is that the digital revolution was started by "digital immigrants", grounded in the old print & TV culture; the Internet was started in 1969 and the PC revolution of the late '70s & '80s initiated the digital revolution. As an online instructor, I've come to recognize considerable digital incompetence among "digital natives".

    who also uses bad sources and is biased because prensky is trying to sell something the entire time and once again prensky has no medical sources backing him up. I'm about to go to Harvard Medical school and I remember when I had to do a project on these guys for college. Whoever believes this is just plain stupid and you should really question and challenge more things in life instead of just accepting it

    Are you retarded. This guy is lying. I read his works and had to write a college essay on it. His sources are completely illegitimate. None one of the studies he cites in his works are conducted by a doctor. Never mind an M.D but none of them even had a Ph.D. His sources are media sources and that is not trustworthy. Also you think he would have medical publishings for his "journal; article Sources" and no he does not the only journal article sources he cites are texts written by Mark Prensky
