The Digital Literacy Workshop – The Social Networks
  The past decade has seen the growth of a brand new language and channel of communication. The Social Network. Platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, etc. have become the de facto channels of communication amongst the Generation Y and even more so amongst generation Z.
The problem is that in so doing they have left behind vast segments of the older generation, those who were not born into the internet age and feel bewildered and tossed aside by this wind of change. Many if not most are ashamed by this reverse of roles and seniority, whereby the children teach their mother the Mother Tongue (from an old quip by the satirist Ephraim Kishon).
