DIGITAL NATIVES: THE NEXT STEP IN BRAIN EVOLUTION Technology is dividing us into digital natives and digital immigrants - and changing the way we think, says Richard Woods. Emily Feld is a native of a new planet. While the 20-year-old university student may appear to live in London, she actually spends much of her time in another galaxy - out there, in the digital universe of websites, e-mails, text messages and mobile phone calls. The behaviour of Feld and her generation, say experts, is being shaped by digital technology as never before, taking her boldly where no generation has gone before. It may even be the next step in evolution, transforming brains and the way we think. |PPF|
