Based on the information in Digital Natives as Preservice Teachers: What Technology Preparation Is Needed? (Lei, 2009), write an evaluation of the article in two sections:
Section 1
What is your perception of the quality of evidence gathered based on how constructs were explained, the manner in which the study samples were selected, and how well the survey was constructed?
What changes or additions to the study could strengthen the credibility of the data and inferences made from the data?
Section 2
Does this article validate the idea that Digital Natives, who are pre-service teachers, are unprepared to use technology as an educational resource? Moreover, is the generality of this idea common enough across all education institutions that it should be considered an “educational issue”?
What evidence is presented in the article to justify your response?
Provide at least 3 examples that support your claim and address whether you think the author’s conclusion is appropriate given the evidence presented in the article.
