“网络一代”一词表明,1983年以后出生的这一代年轻人与前一代人不同,因为他们在日常生活中接触到了数字技术,这对他们的学习态度和方法产生了深远的影响。本文研究了“网络一代”和“数字原生者”等术语的使用情况,报告了对英国一年级本科生的调查。本文基于2008年春季进行的研究,探讨英国大学一年级学生中是否存在明显的净一代,以及是否存在归因于年龄、性别或学科差异的显著差异。它的结论是,虽然有显着的变化发生在一年级的本科生在英国,他们远比一个单一的新一代的想法会建议更复杂。
The term Net generation suggests that the generation of young people born after 1983 are different from any preceding generation because they have been exposed to digital technology in their day-to-day existence, and that this is has a profound impact on their attitudes and approach to learning. Examining the use of the terms Net generation and Digital Natives this paper reports a survey of first year undergraduate students in the UK. This paper, based on research conducted in the spring of 2008 examines whether there is a distinct Net generation amongst first year UK university students and if there are significant differences attributable to age, gender or disciplinary differences. It concludes that whilst there are significant changes taking place amongst first year undergraduate students in the UK they are far more complex than the idea of a single new generation would suggest.
