How will you bridge the gap of the students in the future generation, the generation Y and Z?

Generation Y and Z both came from the different kinds of era. An era where different behaviors, attitude, opinions, social values and knowledge will emerge together with the unavoidable progress of time and of technologies where new ideas, beliefs and values will be introduced. Generation Y is more familiar with the technologies on how to manipulate and navigate than the Z generation. 

Bridging the gap is not that easy. It must be organized so it will address and cater the needs of two different generations.

·     Conference. Come up with a  and meet those students. Let them have a conversation that will establish a harmonious relationship with one another, to let them know how they differ and how they can help one another.

·     Technology. Let them manipulate and navigate technologies. They may learn to use it step by step but we can apply here John Dewey’s principle of learning by doing. This will boost up their eagerness to learn with this thing so called “Self-help”. 

 ·        Human interaction. I believe learning through interaction is important. Giving and receiving feedback is a vital in learning. There you can assess and evaluate how successful your strategies are.

    ·   Work Ethics.  Both generation has their different concept and ways on making some            tasks. Let them work together, collaboration of ideas and team work.
