Week 9 - c) A person known to you who most threatens the notion of native/immigrant in digital culture
Well i could stick to my Uncle who is 45 and is finds computers natural. Supposedely anyone who's born before 1980 aren't capable of using computers and are considered a 'digital immigrant'. However im a 'digital native' and i'm forever asking him to fix my computer, as i've managed to get a virus, or i ask if he can sort out my internet because i've lost my connection. I've been to him for computer advice more than i've been to Mcdonalds. I'm even able to talk to him on IM and he uses the same language as what i do, he doesn't have an 'accent' like Prensky explains. He is more like a digital native than i'll ever be. I'm still learning about computers and i should be fluent in technology according to Prensky.
