4 Myths of Digital Learning
“I am a technophile. I believe strongly in the effective application of a variety of technologies to learning, and in the benefits they can provide. I have designed many online- and blended-learning courses at my university. However, every technology has both strengths and weaknesses.”
- Myth 1: Digital natives are automatically digital learners.
- Myth 2: Students prefer using technology to learn.
- Myth 3: Cyberspace is the new classroom.
- Myth 4: Today’s students are multitaskers.
