The above podcast is a recording I did of a few adults working as students for this particular project. Based on the responses, I would say that all of my "students" are digital immigrants rather than digital natives. All were raised with some computer/techology access but not the amount that students are exposed to today. Of the three students, it seems as though student 2 uses technology the least of the three. If I were to really have these responses from students, it might impact how I teach. I think that I would continue to have students research on the internet since they all seem to know how to do it, but I will expand on that by having them blog and podcast. Given that student 2 does not seem to be as experienced with technology as the others, I would try to give him more detailed instruction and help when needed.
