week 8 task 5 Abstract

ARTICLE 2
The intetion of William Stewarts article is to put forward that teachers could leran a thing or two about technology from “the generation sitting in front of them in class.” The article addressed Jim Knight concept that challenges whether teachers should remain in charge of digital education because they are “digital natives,” who need to learn form children who are using all forms of media eg converged. Cary Bazalgette actually disputes Knight and brings into play that children don’t know everything. The debate of the article also suggests that future teachers face problems, with their whole life documented on the Internet students could “bully” them. Concerns even reach young children which the UK Council on Child Internet Safety hope to resolve issues by improving regulation and education around internet use eg online bullying, control violent games etc.
