Team Topic

My team and I are going to talk about two topics. Our two topics are Integrity and Augmented Reality. In our group we have one person that is out of the country. He is in Australia. It will be interesting working with someone that is out of the country because our time is not the same. So we  might get all of our work done while it might be night time for him. It will be hard working like that but that is one of the reasons why we are doing this project. To work with others without being able to see and talk face to face with them. One good way to discribe Integrity in the Don Tapscott's Grown Up is being able to get true information off the web and being able to share that truthful information. One way to discribe Augmented Reality is being able to get information off of your phone, computers, ipods, and other electrical devices. It will be interesting to be able to work with others that arent in my school and I have never seen or talked to. As of right now I am happy with the group and the topics that I have.

Teachers changing the way they teach

I believe that the teachers are teaching the way that they learned. The new generation has changed. The way that the teachers went though school is not the way that the new generation should go though school. The new generation is now using computers a lot more. We also want to participate instead of just sitting in the classroom all day. The kids going though school today will find a way to use a computer on their work. Since the kids will still find a way they should teach better ways that we can use the computers. They should still be teaching how to get up and give a speech first because we will still have to do that in the future, but they will need to know how to use the computers in the future. The way the teachers were taught was going in the classroom and doing paper work all day. That is not the way that the new generation want to be taught. They don't school to be so stressful. When students get paperwork and it takes them all night, that's when it gets really stressful. Teachers need to change to the way that the students are not just the way that they are.

Net Gen Norms

There are eight characteristics in the Net Gen Norms. The eight are freedom, customization, security, integrity, collaboration, entertainment, speed, and innovation. Freedom is about being able to do what you want when you want without having someone tell you how to do it. Customization is about being able to change whatever you want on anything. Even if you don't change it you still are able to. Security is saying that the information on it might not be true and people should know what is fact and fiction. Integrity says that Net Gen cares about honesty and they can use social networks such and facebook to find the truth. Collaboration says that it helps companies by letting people help them make better things. Entertainment lets Net Geners play online games while at work to lower their stress levels. Speed is saying that it Net Geners expect to get a fast response. They want a flow of information, so that people can get information. Innovation is saying that they are are always making bigger and better things. This chapter is tell us all about the Net Gen. Almost everything about Net Gen can be labeled in one of these characteristics. It is good that they show how they are working on Net Gen all the time.
