Digital natives are students who have grown up with technology and formed digital identities from a young age. They are more adept with technology than digital immigrants and have spent thousands of hours using devices for games, phones and TV. To effectively teach digital natives, teachers must increase their own technology use in the classroom as students' brains are stimulated differently by technology compared to traditional methods like books and lectures.
