Raymond,
We do have a generation where entitlement is a concern, however, it is our role to develop the whole person.
Ron Hansen, Ed. D.
Yes the changes in generation are presenting a need in changing how we present our education and school enviroment.
I find that many of the younger generation are actually better students, they seem to bring less life baggage with them and they are pretty open minded. It helps to find common themes between student and teacher.
Terry,
Students "with baggage" need to see the relevance of the course to their life. They can be engaged.
