Abstract
This paper provides a contextual overview of Net Generation students at a rural university in a tropical Australian location. It then provides a discussion based on the interview responses of eleven students studying either Education or Psychology in relation to their perceptions concerning the contribution that digital video makes to their engagement with subjects. It was concluded that the students perceive that digital video can make a substantial contribution to subject engagement if the videos are relevant, concise and interesting and are supplemented with effective pedagogy and classroom interaction and discussion.
