Technology encourages students and teachers to expand their knowledge and curiosity. Technology allows access to any information in seconds. The easy access to information also sets high standards for teachers and students and pushes them to do better.
A standard that is meaningful to me is knowledge constructor and making a meaningful learning experience. A standard that seems outside my skill level is computational thinker and being able to solve technological problems.
I agree that today's youth is considered a digital native, youth today can't imagine a world without technology and having access to anything in a matter of seconds. Some of my older teachers would be considered digital immigrant, and have trouble doing easy applications. Due to this, some of my classes didn't use any technology in classrooms and was more inefficient because of it. My future students will most likely be much more advanced with new technology.
