2) What does the idea of ‘digital generation’ mean?

3) Cognitively speaking, how do your generation be different from web natives who were “born on the web”?

** Defining generations are for taking a lens through which to understand societal change, rather than a label with which to oversimplify differences between groups of unique individuals.
