Continued digital native or digital immigrant

We still have time in class to keep writing and everyone else is so I'm going to add on to my previous post...I know my teachers in elementary were digital immigrants for the most part, but they wanted the students to grow up learning the new material so all the students would be native. In junior high, the teachers seemed more like they thought we were wasting our time using the internet, playing videogames, and watching tv. In high school it was a little more of the same thing. The teachers always made us think the internet information was useless and incorrect. In college, however, we use the internet a lot more and the teachers encourage it a lot more.
