having a deeper understanding of the different generations will help me become a better educator that will to teach to each of their needs and the way they understand things.
Understanding the challenges of multigeneration class composition is important
I've leant the basic differences in generational groups. It would help appreciate expectations from different age brackets oin my class
The most significant information about each generation is the explanation given as to why and how each generation perceives info
Good information. I would just suggest Gen Y, if we are generalizaing, is not self centered... massive activism, achieving real change (or seeking it) for others, etc. Interesting considerations, though, so long as we note these are truly broad generalizations. The most tech savy tech saturated people I know are late baby boomers.
Generation Z people are hyper-aware of their surroundings and have confidence that through technology they can access information when needed!
Planning and facilitating learning experiences that will "fit" the course is much more complicated when dealing with the reality of multigenerational students. While, we do not want to reduce any student to gerneralized "characteristics", the information provided is helpful in providing basic foundational constructs to support further discussion.
that no two people will learn the same. You have to be able to bridge the gap of that individual and explain to where they can see it to where its suppose to be learned.

I agree with statement tha "The instructional delivery models being used in today’s educational settings not only involve a greater use of technology but also require students to focus on self discovery, discipline and critical thinking skills."
I realize how all the generations learn differently and have a much better understanding why.
I have learned that a Generational focus to teaching may be necessary to reach all your students. It is easy to take for granted that everyone knows the latest technology. As educators we must be aware that there is a generational gap regarding technology and social interactions.
The material really highlights the differences among these groups and how those impact learning and assimilation of material.
I'm now better informed and equiped to teach multigenerational students by understanding their backgrounds, i.e. technology, work ethics, values, etc.
Classrooms today are filled with students from multiple generations with different learning needs and learning styles. Learning how to adapt to these needs in the classroom are key to our students success and our individual success as an Instructor.
Excellent information condensed into one area that has been unmatched in my normal studies.
Learning about these four generations helps to understand their dreams and goals. It helps to better understand how each generation grasps their perspective about life.
This information is very informative to help understand the different generations way of learning. When instructors can identify the student's type of generation it will be easier to teach at their level.
How we can adjust our teaching techniques and approaches based on our generational audience.
To properly deal with and manage diverse generations we must understand everyone as individuals. Ultimately, most of all people just wants to feel valued and appreciated.
I have learn ed that we, instructors, don't really know much of generations that have come after us. I have, however, realize that my teaching straytegy must adept to new learning abilities and use content appropreately..
