This week in Miller’s Multimodal Composing in Classrooms, they set out to debunk myths that are common in the talked about field.  My favorite myth, myth number 2: All students are “digital natives,” and teachers as “digital immigrants” are strangers who live by very different “mindsets,” made myself reflect on my own experience in this class over the semester.  While I do believe that being a “digital native” does have something to do with the time period in which that person is born. I personally believe however that a person’s socioeconomic background and location in which they call home has more of an effect.   Using myself as an example, I was born in the correct time frame to be labeled as a digital native, but I know many people that are much older and more computer savvy than myself.  Many of these older people that I know grew up in heavy populated cities such as Pittsburgh and Cleveland.  I believe that since these people live in cities where technology is forced upon them every day, that they eventually adapt so well with its use, that it  becomes second nature to them just as easily as a young person who choices to surf on the internet daily.
