Great Information

The breakdown of what instructional style each generation typically responds to best is very helpful. It is interesting to me to use a blend and see which students respond to best, when the class is a generation blend as well. Do generations welcome the techniques of others?

I agree that different generational cohorts respond differently to instructional approach. It can be chalenging to meet the desires of each of these differeing groups. However, using a varied approach to instruction seems to push each of these cohorts into and out of comfort zones and they are finding they can learn through differing styles effectively.

I find Baby Boomers and Gen X'ers welcome technology pretty easily. However Gen Y'ers tend to lose interest in older teaching methods like hand outs and such
