Are today's students really "digital natives?" Just what is a digital native? Are students' experiences with learning dramatically different from students we've taught in the past?
Join the Digital Union for "Future Students", a lively panel discussion with OSU undergrads and Columbus high school students, answering your questions about what it means to be a student in a world with ubiquitous information access.
The panelists include one high school student from Thomas Worthington, and four Ohio State undergraduate students.
