A digital immigrant vs. A digital native
I am a half of a digital immigrant and a digital native, because I was born when a time wasn't have much technology, and I live a time have a lot of new technology. I am a slow learning about new thing, so a new technology is my challenge. I think the old people is a digital immigrant because they need to learn how to use a cellphone, DVD players, camera records and so on. The young people is a digital native because they know to use it faster and more than that they know how to use smart phones, the internet, and so on. The kids today know to use a lot of technology. A new technology comes out that is good because we save a lot of time to do our works. On the other hand, a technology makes people are been lazy because they depend on a technology such as students like to use a calculator rather than work by hand. People are less communicated with others because they like to communicate with cellphones or the internet all the time they have.

It is my challenge too. I have learned things from this new era with my kids. I agree with you when you said that technology is good because it makes our jobs easier. It is true that people depend too much on technology and in many occasions, especially young people do not want to think or communicate. That is why teachers need to help students use technology in an intelligent way.
