As Digital Immigrants, we have had to learn HOW TO USE technology and, sometimes quite slowly... There is a difference between knowing a few tools and being fully conversant in the new technologies.... for example, many two-years-olds are able to hold a mobile phone or a tabled and already know what to do, because they are Digital Natives.
To achieve goals quickly
To use focused resources in building things to scale
To revitalize or repurpose existing institutions
