現今的學生成長在數位世界裡，這些「數位原住民」的學習方式與以往不同，所以面對這些學生，教學者需要新的方法，讓學習變得有實際意義又切身相關。發明「數位原住民」與「數位移民」這些名詞的馬克‧普倫斯基〈Marc Prensky〉提出一項非常創新但經過實地測驗的分工合作模式，此模式有助於21世紀的學生透過科技來學習。在「分工合作教學法」的框架下，熟稔數位工具的學生可以學會搜尋資訊、分析並利用多媒體工具報告，教師能夠學習如何指導學生、如何提出好的問題與提供學習情境、如何設計教學內容、如何評估學習品質，行政人員則能學習如何有效地支持、組織與促進全校的學習進度。在此教學法下，科技成為學生習得必備技能的工具，也是學生完成作業的最佳工具。

本書是本有遠見也很實用的書，書中許多的策略、基本指南、合作方法與範例，有助於培養學生習得在全球化暨數位化世界中的生活與工作能力。


Students today are growing up in a digital world. These 'digital natives' learn in new and different ways, so educators need new approaches to make learning both real and relevant for today's students. Marc Prensky, who first coined the terms 'digital natives' and 'digital immigrants', presents an intuitive yet highly innovative and field-tested partnership model that promotes 21st-century student learning through technology. Partnership pedagogy is a framework in which: digitally literate students specialize in content finding, analysis, and presentation via multiple media; teachers specialize in guiding student learning, providing questions and context, designing instruction, and assessing quality; administrators support, organize, and facilitate the process schoolwide; technology becomes a tool that students use for learning essential skills and 'getting things done'. With numerous strategies, how-to's, partnering tips, and examples, "Teaching Digital Natives" is a visionary yet practical book for preparing students to live and work in today's globalized and digitalized world
