Generation Gaps

Welcome to LIBE 477, my final course for the TL Diploma! I am more than a little excited, but loathe to give up my UPass. If it weren’t for worrying about grades and the cost of courses, I would just keep going. Anyway.

In the first two days, several things stood out for me. First, the digital native generation. This is interesting to me not just as a teacher, but as a parent also. My oldest is thirteen and we frequently have conversations, disagreements even, about the purchase, maintenance, and use of technology. She always wants the latest, greatest gadget that can do more, faster, and better.
