Digital Generation Post.

From the article, Understanding the Digital Generation, one thing that I found interesting was the "Learning Styles" section. It states that "Digital learners prefer receiving information quickly from multiple multimedia sources." This made me think about any time a breaking news story occurs or something big happens in a sporting event. First I hear about it from Facebook, as 10-12 friends will make it their status. Then If I log on my Twitter again, there will be 10-12 people tweeting about the event that has occurred, and it will show up in "Trending Topics." Then if I am really lucky I will recieve a text message or two asking did you hear about this, did you see that, ect. So I would have to completely agree with the statement made in this article.
