ICT - achieving more than just learning outcomes

Today my four year old downloaded and installed an educational game from the intenet without any assistance.

This once again supports the theory that ICT natives do not have a fear of ICT. They do not hesitate to use ICT to satisfy their curiosity. It is almost as if ICT and the acceptance thereof is not an option for natives. They have a built-in urge to use ICT in obtaining knowledge and life skills.

I learnt once again today that exposure to ICT is the only way digital immigrants would be able to understand the need that exists in digital natives to use ICT instead of traditional teaching methods to reach learning outcomes.
