Week 9. b) The youngest digital immigrant you know.

I don't think i know any people my age who DON'T use computers, phones ect, only people who use them a little less. So i think the youngest digital immigrant i know is one of my mums friends who is in her early 30's because she has only recently switched to DVD from VHS because a few of her favourite videos broke! And my mum is always complaining about texting her because 'she always calls back straight afterwards because she doesnt know how to text back' (ha!) This seems almost impossible to hear from a person these days but apparently she simply doesn't text because she doesn't like it!

  1. This is entertaining Issy but do try and keep a critical distance - we need to avoid making value judgements about others. The issues here are about need, opportunity, comfort, access, habit, time, etc etc - not about being askance. Even some of your tutors don't text, you know!
