Sorry I couldn’t attend the eluminate session today. Classes all day on Tuesday. So I have listened to the session and written comments at various points- Comments… Uni students are not the real tech savvy age students. Get ready for the 21st centurians born late 1990’s. In grade 2 with iPods for birthday presents. These are the real digital kids. Uni students aren’t as tech savvy as these 21st centurians. They watch TV, play the PS2, listen to some music, have something going on a webiste and could be drawing or writing and eating oh and occasionally talking to others all at the same time.
