As a future principal, what do I take away from these "generational differences" readings?

Embrace the world of technology we live in!

After reading all three articles it was evident to me that we cannot make any assumptions about individuals based on their generation, whether they be "digital natives" or "digital immigrants". There are too many variances amongst generations. Another take-away was that there is not enough differentiated research showing that educators need to change their practice for today's learners.

Although we cannot make these assumptions or say that we must change our practice for our students, I personally believe that we should embrace this world of opportunity and technological resources. We have the opportunity to do things we could have only dreamed of 30 years ago... so take advantage of it!
