I would consider myself a digital native.  I have early memories playing on our family’s Macintosh computer playing games like Oregon Trail or Tetris.  Even so, I prefer to read an actual book I can hold and touch.

My students are definitely digital natives, as many of them did not know life before Facebook.

My colleagues are split 50/50.  While some are comfortable in using technology  and use it regularly, others shutter at the thought.  I even have some teachers that would prefer to use transparencies over a digital version.

Students: digital natives, but not all for good

Teachers: Digital Immigrants with a few digital natives that still required assistance

Self: trying to keep up with it all…more digital immigrant than native

I would say that I am a digital native as well as my students.  Most of my colleagues are digital immigrants.

Me: I believe I am a digital native although born before the iPod - definitely consider myself an early adapter since childhood

My colleagues - we skew pretty young in age and are all open to new technology and are quick to adapt - I would say they lean closer to natives (except for the nun we had on staff - she was an immigrant for obvious reasons)

my students who are natives

I was born before the iPod, but I watched and participated as new technologies came (was there for the first NES..what?????!!!!). So maybe I'm a digital native because I'm able to adapt to all that? The categories seem artificial. I'm not even sure how to answer this.

Students seem to be digital natives; however, with stuff like file organization and ethical/responsible use, awareness of digital footprint issues, etc....not sure.
Colleagues--so we run the gamut. I have now hired teachers I once taught, so not sure. Age doesn't seem to be an issue, though, because some of our early adopters are also pre-iPod types and the converse is also true that some of the ones who are resistant are new teachers. Seems like we (teachers, students, and I) are all digital immigrants--how we use technologies continues to change in terms of introduction of new tools; however, we seem to behave all of us like consumers of tech, not creators with tech.

I am a digital native and nearly all of my students are digital natives too. My faculty are digital natives but we have a few immigrants.

Me: I feel like I should be a digital native but feel more like a digital immigrant. I feel like I should be a digital native because I kind of "grew up with technology" seeing the transition from gargantuan desktops to microscopic phones, and paper thin laptops. But I never really cared much about technology growing up so I did not really spend time with it.
Colleagues: About 50/50
Students: Mostly digital natives

I loathe to categorize my colleagues into these two categories.  I believe there are those who are born Digital Natives but don't necessarily incorporate tech into their courses often.  There are also immigrants who are more successful than the natives because technology is valued and therefore pursued intentionally.
Most faculty are immigrants who refuse digital citizenship.  I am an immigrant.  My students are natives who don't know how to maximize tech to learn.  They're video game natives.

Students:  Many are Natives, but will exhibit some Immigrant characteristics like a lack in typing skill/speed (home-row concerns especially). Very familiar in applications use or how to hide their stuff from parents.
Colleagues:  Unsure as to all teachers, but I think most are competent in being able to learn. I lean Native, with some Immigrant "accents."
ME:  half & half - fine with learning new computer applications, even remember the days of bringing in Netscape article for (I guess better than AOL right) I do not always using media aspects (too busy to care about Pop culture besides my nerdy stuff, or posting about my life)
