CEM Students: The Real Digital Natives

A total of 88 students responded to an online questionnaire related to technology. Statistics show that it is in fact the students at the CEM (Longueuil) campus that are the real Digital Natives and not us ÉNA students. More than half the students in Longueuil said they love technology, compared to only 46.8 % of ÉNA students. The study also shows that in general, Longueuil students use computers more often that ÉNA students. For example, three quarters of CEM students use computers to share information on sites such as Facebook whereas only half of ENA students answered the same. Furthermore, the ratio of students using the computer for the creation of websites or blogs between CEM and ENA stands at a strong 12 to 1. These statistics clearly show that the CEM students are the uncontested Digital Natives.
