digital native
personwho has grown up with digital technologies and is comfortable using them
The term 'digital native' falsely suggests that young people intuitively know how to use digital technologies. But evidence shows that a substantial percentage of young people in Europe lack basic ICT skills (ECDL Foundation 2015).
ECDL Foundation, The Fallacy of the ‘Digital Native’: Why Young People Need to Develop their Digital Skills, 2014, p. 1, http://ecdl.org/media/thefallacyofthe'digitalnative'positionpaper1_1.pdf [9.10.2018]
The term suggests that young people intuitively know how to use technology and hence have no need for digital education or training.
