Abstract

This study was conducted to construct a model on ubiquitous hub for digital natives. Respondents were 250 digital native generation students, from a higher learning institution in Malaysia. The result of the regression, structural equation model and path analysis revealed that multitask as well as gratification and reward nurture digital natives to learn in ubiquitous computing environment. Digital natives characteristics of reliant on graphic for communication, and attitude toward technology are rejected from the model based on the statistical evidence. Test of the relationship between multitask toward gratification and reward via structural equation model shows that both influence each other. Conclusion on the set-up of ubiquitous hub for digital natives based on the model derived are discussed.

  • The observed digital generational gap reinforces the notion that the "Digital Native" (born after 1980) has been immersed in technology from an early age, naturally exhibiting higher adoption rates.

    “The observed digital generational gap reinforces the notion that the “Digital Native” (born after 1980) has been immersed in technology from an early age, naturally exhibiting higher adoption rates, reflecting the greater tech-savviness of younger demographics (Rosli et al., 2016).”

    The Digital Natives Attributes section (page unavailable) says that students born after the 1980s grew up surrounded by technology and describes digital natives as having a positive attitude toward it. It does not establish that they naturally have higher technology-adoption rates than older generations; the paper's study concerns readiness to learn through ubiquitous computing among students born in 1990–1994.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
