The document discusses generational characteristics of Millennials born between 1982-2000:
1) Millennials are the first generation to grow up with the internet and social media being integrated into daily life from a young age. They are more comfortable with technology and digital communication than older generations.
2) Research shows Millennials are confident, achievement-oriented, and open-minded but also feel pressured and rule-abiding. They seek structure, teamwork and fun in education.
3) Some critics argue Millennials are less knowledgeable about history but more engaged with popular culture and current events shared online with peers. Others note both benefits and distractions of new technologies.

Recruiting Millenials for Military Servicecolin_powell
A presentation put together by some Navy experts regarding the difficulty of recruiting "millennials," Americans aged 17 to 24, to the armed forces. In the words of the presentation, the kids are not alright: They're "coddled," "narcissistic praise junkies" who "demand respect" though they lack experience, and who are so comfortable with technology that talking to them is like "dealing with a somewhat alien life force."
This presentation was delivered by Dr. Michael Bridges on April 20, 2009 for the Pittsburgh Emerging Arts Leaders Network. It covers differences between Boomers, Xers and Millenials in the Arts Management workplace.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Read| The latest issue of The Challenger is here! We are thrilled to announce that our school paper has qualified for the NATIONAL SCHOOLS PRESS CONFERENCE (NSPC) 2024. Thank you for your unwavering support and trust. Dive into the stories that made us stand out!
6. Overview
The generation of Americans born between 1982 and 2000 does
not bowl alone as Putnam would predict; instead, they virtually
bowl on their Wii. They cannot identify five Supreme Court
justices (by name or picture), but they can easily tell you who
Stephen Colbert, Stewie Griffin, and Eric Cartman are. If you
ask them if they voted, many will believe you are referring to
voting for their favorite American Idol superstar. They
understand a sense of community and networks—at least if you
are referring to Facebook or MySpace. They have grown up in
the era where a Blackberry went from a business tool used
mainly by Washington staffers to a key possession of any high
school student. Gone are the days of trips to the library for
academic research and letters delivered through the USPS.
Arrived are days of YouTube videos being posted online before
the event has even concluded and any piece of information
required being available through a cell “phone”.
7. What We Know
• Special, sheltered, confident, team oriented,
conventional, pressured, achieving, rule
followers, well-educated, open-minded,
influential, achievement oriented, used to being
assessed
• Did not wait to college to get out from under
the wings of adults and experiment with matters
such as sex, alcohol, drugs, spending money, or
even different lifestyle options
8.
9.
10. Freshmen Political Lives
• Not alive for Desert Storm
• Experienced Columbine
– In pre-school
• 9/11
• Corruption
• Bitter Campaigns
12. Millennial Lives, In General
• Ushered into the 21st century on the wings of
reality television, unlimited text messaging plans,
Facebook, Twitter, Netbooks, and Attention Deficit
Disorder.
• They have witnessed success in a major military
offensive and an airline pilot successfully save a
plane full of passengers on the Hudson River.
• Many have watched their parents get divorced;
nearly as many have experienced a loved one with
cancer; a few have been arrested for sexting.
14. Teaching and Learning with Millennials
• Faculty need to remember these differences
• What worked for their cohort may not work anymore
• Millennials enter college differently
• Want teamwork, experiential activities, structure,
technology
• Want to be led, challenged, to work with friends, to have
fun, to be respected, to have flexibility
• Focused on grades and performance, busy with
extracurriculars, eager to be involved, technologically
talented, interested in math and science compared to
humanities, more politically conservative and socially
liberal
15. The Dumbest Generation?
• Millennials “care about what occurred last week in
the cafeteria, not what took place during the Great
Depression…they heed the words of Facebook,
not the Gettysburg Address.”
• The constant communication amongst their peer
groups has made it so that “equipped with a
Blackberry and laptop, sporting a flashy profile page
and a blog…teenagers pass words and images back
and forth 24/7”
• Can’t trust anyone under 30
16. Paradox
• “We have entered the Information Age,
traveled the Information Superhighway,
spawned a Knowledge Economy, undergone
the Digital Revolution, converted manual
workers into knowledge workers, and
promoted a Creative Class, and we anticipate
a Conceptual Age…yet young Americans
today are no more learned or skilled than
their predecessors.”
• Faculty, in Bauerlein’s opinion, are equally to
blame as he finds them to be too worried
about being labeled as old or reactionary to
challenge today’s students to move beyond
his negative opinions.
37. Debt-Ridden!
• Student loan debt, poverty, unemployment,
lower levels of wealth than their previous two
generations at same age
• BUT, 8/10 say they have enough money to lead
the lives they want
40. Not Trusters!
Generally speaking, would you say that most people can be
trusted or that you can’t be too careful in dealing with people?
MILLENNIALS: 19%
GEN XERS: 37%
BOOMERS: 40%
41. Conclusion
• Millennials are different
– Just like every generation that has come before us
• There are good and bad things to Millennial
technological capabilities
– Changing nature of community v. new skills
• Is the Millennial generation better/worse than
previous? Or are we trying to compare apples
to oranges?
