This site/ article is up to date as it was written in July 9, 2006, some of the points in the article are very relevant to todays situation, people always checking facebook, their mobiles and feeling lost without them and losing some sort of interaction if they dont have certain objects of technology.
It highlights the points in Prenskys article "digital immigrants" and "natives",that we multi task and are less interested in the slow pace of how education may come across.
It does challenge the whole element of it being about age.....
"it’s not simply a question of age — is the intuitive acceptance of rapid digital change."
This article does pull in many other researchers interested in this feild giving a varied, non biased approach to the idea of Prenskys idea.
It is a good idea to look at digital immigration and native immigration very open minded as it is down to each individual as to whether they are either one or the other. It is apparent that it is new media just developing over time and whether individuals are interested or not.
