Abstract

Students are able to use and are using many digital devices in their everyday life. The term “Net Generation” is used to describe these young people who have been using digital devices such as computers, cell phones and digital music players all their lives. Can we then assume that the Net Generation would welcome the use of technology in learning just because they are digital natives? Our study focused on the eLearning perceptions, needs and requests of students at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. We found that students were generally positive (though not overly enthusiastic) towards various forms of eLearning strategies.
