Website Two (with URL)

http://www.marcprensky.com/writing/default.asp

The second website which I found intersting is the homepage of a key figure in the concept of Digital Natives and Digitial Immigration, Marc Prensky. The homepage introduces Marc, and gives hyperlinks to different areas and pages. I found the "writitngs" hyperlink to be the most interesting, as on this page a number of articles are published, all to do with Digitial immigration and Digital Natives. Obviously as this website is about Prenskys ideas, it is all very supportive and positive. The website talks about how there is a divide in digital technology, breaking it down into to categories which are age dependent. The website is really up to date, with the most recent publications dating March 2009. There is also an archive of older publications dating back to 2003, so there is a whole host of resourses and articles available. The hyperlinks which give you acess to the articles are shown in red, which makes them stand out on the page, and co-ordinates with the text box at the very top of the page. The layout is generally quite simple, which is effective and is ideal for regular updates to be made.
