Building on Marc Prensky's writings


Not sure if anyone has heard of Diana Oblinger, VP of Educause. She has written some good stuff about the Net Generation and builds on what Prensky observes about the games generation.
You can access her e-book or sections of it at this URL:

Educating the Net Generation
It's an interesting read.

She was scheduled to speak in February this year in SU but flight delays prevented her and we did a videoconferencing of her presentation. You can access the Real Media file here:

I knew Diana Oblinger when she was at Microsoft and found her very hard working, professional, and dedicated. Anyone who can tap into her perspectives, I strongly suggest that they do so!
