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.
