The document discusses digital immigrants and natives, and the implications of technology for learning and teaching. A digital immigrant is someone who grew up without digital technology and had to learn how to use it later in life. While digital natives are native to the digital world. The document questions whether digital immigrants can truly become digital natives or if one must be born into the digital world. It also explores how technology impacts education and whether traditional paper-based learning can produce digital natives.

Editor's Notes
- #2: Thank Futurekids. Relationship with school, Robotics, staff and students attend Futurekids courses. Delighted to speak this morning. Slides in Spanish, I shall speak in English so that you can understand me via the translation, since my accent may prevent me from communicating effectively.
