Digital Natives in Tomorrow's Classrooms

After reading the article featured in the University of Pennsylvania's Gazette http://www.upenn.edu/gazette/1107/feature3.html please consider the following questions and post your answers as comments:

Are you one of the digital natives described in the article? If you are, which technology tools do you regularly use? Do you think your professors can relate to you and teach you meaningful content? Would it be helpful if your professors developed content for the digital tools that most "natives use regularly? How will you develop meaningful learning experiences for your students?
