The document discusses generational differences in learning styles with a focus on millennials or Generation Y. It notes that Gen Y learns differently than previous generations due to growing up with technology and are accustomed to immediate access to information. The document recommends that companies provide learning opportunities that leverage new technologies, social networking, collaboration, and immediate feedback in order to effectively engage and retain Gen Y employees.
The document discusses learning in the 21st century and presents statistics showing that the US is falling behind other countries in areas like higher education attainment and early childhood education enrollment. It notes Americans spend more time in teaching but have wider achievement gaps. Fewer young Americans surpass their parents' education levels. The number of older students is rising. Students face increased emotional challenges, debt, and the need to work while studying. Effective learning relies on factors like engagement, relevance and reinforcement rather than just grades. New technologies enable more flexible and customized learning approaches. Different generations have distinct learning preferences related to their experiences with technology.
This document discusses 21st century education and the skills needed for students in the modern world. It outlines three main points:
1) 21st century education focuses on developing skills like critical thinking, collaboration, communication and adapting to change, rather than memorization of facts. It emphasizes project-based and active learning.
2) Today's students, called digital natives, have grown up with technology and need education to incorporate their skills and interests. They want voice, transparency, creativity and connections through technology.
3) The modern classroom shifts from teacher-centered learning to student-centered models that are outcome-based, integrated, and allow for diversity, multiple literacies and relevance to students' lives outside of
Coding bootcamps, online learning, and various non-accredited alternative learning programs pose a threat to higher education. Let's look at where this evolution is going.

Cengage Webinar: Teaching American Government to the digital generationCengage Learning
Who are 'digital natives'? How do they learn? In this webinar, Dr. Robert Starken of the University of Texas explores these questions and more as they relate to getting students to engage with the study of American Government.
I propose an option for facilitating STEM programming differently to bring out innovation and creativity, but still meet rigorous science and math academic standards, as STEM programs were intended to accomplish.
The document discusses challenges in education and strategies for helping all students succeed, especially average students. It proposes implementing career-focused education centered around developing competencies for life roles like learner, worker, citizen. This approach would replace unfocused general education and help more students see meaning and purpose in their education. The document also advocates for stronger collaboration between high schools and community colleges to better support student transitions after high school.

This document discusses factors that contribute to academic dishonesty. It explores how personal values and goals can come into conflict with educational expectations and norms. Additionally, it examines how the availability of cheating services online and pressures from college subcultures can increase dishonest behavior. While technologies and policies aim to deter cheating, the document argues educational tools that improve self-efficacy may be the best defense by properly equipping students for academic success.
Adult learners face many misconceptions about accessibility, technology skills, and their age. In reality, more adults are comfortable with online learning and digital tools. Younger generations also help older adults with technology. While stereotypes persist about classrooms being for younger students, the number of adult students in post-secondary education has risen significantly in recent years. Addressing these misconceptions through research and information can help remove barriers to adult education.

Addicted to Reform: A 12-STEP PROGRAM TO RESCUE PUBLIC EDUCATION by John MerrowMilena Smolinskaya
There is a need for a radical reform of a system that has become
obsessed with data and metrics, with graduation and dropout rates that
can be easily manipulated, and with schools that would rather their
students be obedient and easily controlled, regurgitating the facts they
have been fed, than to have their creativity and intellectual curiosity
unleashed. Standardized testing encourages teachers to teach to the
test rather than engage young minds, particularly when those test
results will be used to evaluate those teachers.
Using Student cell phones in classroom learning
Liz Kolb discusses using student-owned cell phones in K-12 classrooms for learning activities like flashcard reviews, help lines, and local scavenger hunts. She argues that cell phones should be utilized because most students already own them, they support skills needed for 21st century jobs, and research shows positive impacts on learning. However, teachers may be reluctant due to a history of unsuccessful educational technology initiatives and concerns about cheating.
The document discusses the need for universities to reimagine campus spaces and learning environments for the 21st century. It notes that current university models were designed for 19th century needs and that today's students require more flexible, collaborative spaces that incorporate new technologies and support lifelong learning. The Saltire Centre at Glasgow Caledonian University is presented as an example of a new type of learning space for the future with its flexible design, technology integration, and focus on student needs.
The cost of higher education and its implications have been discussed, challenged, and criticized repeatedly over the past several years. Rightfully so. As the price of attending college has increased, it has left many wondering what higher education actually provides.
What does studying technology tell us about Higher Education?Martin Oliver
From email to word processors to web sites, technology has become an integral part of Higher Education. It has been a mainstay of government educational policy for decades, and has featured in HE policy since at least 1965. Yet strangely, studies of technology often remain detached from wider educational research. In this session, I will explore some of the reasons for this, outlining the kinds of work on learning and technology that are being undertaken. I will also introduce some less common perspectives and approaches, which show how technology can act as an important site for understanding wider educational concerns.
Schools need to reform to better prepare students for the 21st century. Traditional school models are outdated and do not adequately develop skills like critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration. Successful schools of the future will personalize learning, integrate technology, focus on real-world problem solving, and foster learning communities. The role of teachers will be to guide students as they work together on authentic projects.
The document discusses the role of information and communication technology (ICT) in education and lifelong learning. It argues that ICT has drastically changed how people access information, communicate, work and learn. While technology has transformed many aspects of modern life, its introduction into education often fails to create meaningful change unless accompanied by changes in mindsets and ideas about teaching and learning. The document outlines four roles that ICT can play in education: as a knowledge source, delivery support, transformative enabler, and to develop agent capabilities among stakeholders.
The document discusses various topics related to education, including:
- Differences between formative and summative assessment.
- Types of educational assessment and their purposes.
- Differences between EFL and ESL programs.
- Benefits of encouraging children's interest in STEM fields.
- Articles cover a wide range of education-related topics such as the importance of education, effects of competition in schools, role of technology, and challenges facing the American education system.

The document discusses goals for improving education in America, including preparing students for the real world and global competitiveness. It notes that technology is advancing rapidly and changing the skills students need, such as problem solving, teamwork and communication. The document advocates making curriculum more interdisciplinary, project-based and connected to real world applications to better prepare students for the 21st century.
Wikis are collaborative websites that allow users to easily add, edit, and change content, sometimes without needing to register. They represent consensus rather than authority, with the knowledge of many considered more valuable than any one expert. Studies have found Wikipedia to be as accurate as the Encyclopedia Britannica for science articles. Popular wiki platforms include Wikispaces for tools and private pages, and PBWiki for limited free tools without logins. Wikis are effective for collaborative authoring in research and scholarship.
The document discusses information literacy education programs at two university libraries. At the University at Buffalo, the library provides instruction to over 2,600 students per semester in a required world civilizations course, facing challenges with class sizes, facilities, and limited staff. At the University of Oklahoma-Tulsa, the graduate research library offers workshops and one-on-one tutoring to its nearly 2,000 graduate students across various programs, and is working to develop online information literacy tutorials to supplement in-person instruction. Both libraries aim to better integrate information literacy into their university curriculums but face obstacles around faculty and administrative support, as well as limited resources.
The document discusses RSS (Really Simple Syndication) and how it can be used to aggregate content from various sources on the web. It defines key aspects of RSS like syndication and how RSS feeds can be found and added to an RSS reader. It provides examples of how RSS can be used to receive automatic updates from PubMed searches and other sources like library blogs and databases. The document also mentions that RSS feeds can be exported and imported between different RSS readers using the OPML format.
This document discusses the characteristics of Millennial students and how their learning styles differ from previous generations. It notes that while Millennials are comfortable with technology, research shows they still struggle with core information literacy skills. The document suggests ways for libraries and educators to better connect with Millennial learners, such as incorporating visuals, customization, group activities, and trial-and-error learning approaches.
This document discusses mentoring Millennial employees. It defines Millennials as those born between the early 1980s and early 2000s who have high expectations for career development support from employers. The document outlines differences between Millennials and older generations in terms of communication preferences, views on work-life balance, and expectations for mentoring relationships. It provides tips for mentoring Millennials, such as meeting them where they are, communicating in their preferred styles, and focusing on immediate career development needs rather than formal schedules or programs. The goal of mentoring Millennials is to help them develop skills for long-term career success through a flexible, educational approach.
PubDrug was launched in 2006 to provide a freely accessible, copyright-free source of drug information as an alternative to vendor databases. It was developed through a collaboration between the University at Buffalo pharmacy school and health sciences library. Students on pharmacoinformatics rotations helped create drug monographs for the wiki-based site, gaining experience with drug information resources, literature searching, and information technologies. The goals were to create an extensive knowledge base of accurate drug information that could be easily updated and integrated into other informatics applications to benefit health professionals and patients.
This document provides a quick introduction to evidence-based health care. It defines evidence-based health care as using the best available external clinical evidence from research to make decisions about patient care along with a practitioner's expertise and patient values. Evidence-based health care is important because it leads to the best patient care outcomes when integrating these three factors. The PICO metric is introduced as a way to structure a research question around the patient population, intervention, comparison, and outcome. An example PICO question is also given to illustrate how to apply this framework.
The document discusses Pubdrug.org, a drug information database created by William J. Loeffler IV and Amy Jo Michnik. It provides feedback on the concept and advice for progression. The main points of focus are target users (healthcare professionals), editors/monograph creators, depth of information, database navigability, editability, security, and longevity. Suggestions are made to use students to train new editors and have an editorial board to review additions and updates. The future goals include incorporating formulary links, PDA versions, expanding involvement, and applying for grants.

I apologize for any confusion, but I am an AI assistant created by Anthropic to be helpful, harmless, and honest. I don't actually have social media accounts or personal relationships.
The document discusses different terms used to describe today's students, born between 1982-2002, who grew up with technology. They are called "Digital Natives" and the "Net Generation" and have high digital fluency. They are used to multi-tasking, random access to information, and social networking. They expect technology to be integrated into learning and for services to be available 24/7. Research has found these students learn better through interactive methods using multimedia and collaboration.
This document discusses preparing for challenges in college admissions due to changing student demographics and economic conditions. It notes declining numbers of traditional college-aged students and increasing financial pressures on families. To weather these changes, the document recommends overthrowing outdated recruitment practices, embracing authenticity in marketing, and ensuring the student experience itself promotes the institution.
This document discusses how colleges can weather the "perfect storm" of challenges facing college admissions. It outlines demographic trends showing declining numbers of traditional college-aged students and increased economic pressures. It argues colleges must overthrow dead recruitment cultures, embrace authenticity in their branding and marketing, and ensure the campus visit experience is engaging. Specific tactics include engaging students earlier in their college search, emphasizing authentic stories over statistics, and training tour guides to provide memorable experiences that feel "right" to prospective students.
This document discusses generational differences and characteristics of Millennial students. It provides background on different generations including birth years and names. It then presents a "Millennial IQ" quiz to test knowledge about traits, behaviors, and preferences of Millennial students. Key points are that Millennials highly value technology, diversity, teamwork and experiential learning. They also seek structure and challenge but want respect, fun and flexibility from teachers. The recession has significantly impacted Millennials through high debt and lack of entry-level jobs. However, most Millennials remain optimistic and are adapting to the economic challenges.
This document discusses how colleges can weather the "perfect storm" of challenges facing higher education admissions. It notes demographic shifts with fewer 18-year-olds and more financially and academically diverse students. The economy adds pressures as students and families carefully consider costs. Traditional recruitment methods need updating for students who begin their search earlier online. Colleges must embrace authenticity by being true to their identity and focusing on the campus visit experience, which prospects trust most. Authentic engagement of students and parents through two-way conversations can help colleges thrive during this challenging period.
An overview of the generational personality of the Millenials, also known as Generation Y. Although there is danger in stereotypes, this presentation summarizes some of the tendencies of this group who are now playing a significant role in the U.S. workforce. Something for managers and supervisors to think more about.
A look at how college/grad school "Millennial Generation" students are changing the way we teach. 1. Describing the Millennials 2. Teaching Millennials 3. Millennials as Law Students
This document discusses the characteristics of Millennial students and how to meet their expectations. Millennials were born between 1977-2000, and were shaped by events like terrorism and a focus on children. They are confident, team-oriented, achieving, and pressured. Millennials expect tailored, portable information and dynamic content. The document recommends engaging Millennial students through technology, ensuring websites are mobile, unique and interactive to meet their preferences.

This document discusses the challenges that teachers face in educating 21st century students. It describes Millennial students as being highly connected digitally, preferring choice and collaboration over traditional structures. Teachers are challenged to embrace new technologies and facilitate more student-centered learning, despite often having less training and support. Key challenges include resisting new technologies due to lack of skills, insufficient professional development, and needing more planning time to develop new lesson plans that engage digital learners.
This document discusses generational giving and different generations. It outlines the core values and experiences of Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials, and Generation Z. Each generation is defined by a 20-year span and had unique life experiences that shaped their values. The document provides information on how each generation learns, their educational and work experiences, and what motivates them. It aims to help understand generational differences in philanthropic attitudes and behaviors.
The document discusses generational differences, focusing on Generation Y. It outlines some key characteristics of Gen Y including that they value flexibility, lifestyle, feedback and mentoring at work. They are constantly connected through technology and prioritize work-life balance. The document also discusses implications for career development, suggesting tailoring approaches for Gen Y through branding, marketing, technology, interactions and content that meet their needs and expectations.
Learning to live in interesting times – what are educational institutions for? Keri Facer (Manchester Metropolitan University) Facilitated by Helen Beetham
Jisc conference 2010
This document discusses teaching strategies and assessment in a learning college. It begins by introducing the presenters and examining how generational differences impact teaching and learning. It then profiles the characteristics and core values of the Veterans/Silent, Baby Boomer, Generation X, and Millennial generations. Key points about how each generation views parenting, technology, gaming, customer service and communication are provided. The document concludes with implications for teaching different generations and principles of brain-based learning.
This document summarizes research on millennials' use of social media and their awareness of how it could impact future careers or education. The research found that most millennials were aware employers and schools may check their social media, and they carefully managed privacy settings and content. While initially assuming risqué content would be common, the researcher found most profiles were innocuous, with millennials learning social norms from both online and real-world communities. The study concluded millennials understand how to present themselves appropriately online for professional purposes.
Understanding Millennials and Neo-MillennialsED MAP
The Imagine America Foundation is proud to announce it is collaborating with ED MAP to present a new webinar research series designed to help career colleges better understand Millennials, Neo-Millennials and virtual high school students. This series will be presented in four progressive sessions exploring this new generation of learner, their needs and expectations, how to get their attention and how to prepare your school for these students. Each session will last an hour with at least 15 minutes devoted to a question-answer period.
Understanding Millennials & Neo-Millennials – January 15th 2009
• Who are Millennials & Neo-Millennials?
• Are Millennials who attended virtual high school different from the rest?
• What are their expectations of post-secondary education?
• How do they learn?
• Why a new approach to learning technology, course materials, faculty preparation and recruiting is required.
This document discusses tensions between universities and Millennial students and proposes solutions. It summarizes research finding differences between how Millennials see themselves and how teachers see them. For example, Millennials prefer empathetic role models, guided supervision, and positive feedback. However, lectures have been the dominant teaching method for centuries. The document argues for collaborative learning and transforming universities into entrepreneurial ecosystems to attract investors and venture capital. Rather than seeing Millennials as the problem, they could be part of the solution to modernizing universities.
Reaching across and between generations at workBernie McCann
The global workforce is evolving rapidly – driven by trends in both worker demographics and perhaps to a lesser extent by employer preferences. Millennials, defined as (those born between 1981-1995), now make up the largest generation in the workforce, already outnumbering both Baby Boomers and Generation Xers. And another generational wave – Generation Z - is now on the cusp of joining the workforce, and we are just beginning to learn about what that might mean for the world of work. To address these trends, my first objective is to provide an information update about contemporary and future demographic shifts in the workforce to better understand the generational context in employee values, expectations, communication styles, and mental health issues. Secondly, I will link this knowledge to improved EA practice by exploring potential challenges and opportunities to develop more nuanced services and communications to target and reach out to these various generations and their workforce cohorts. And thirdly, drawing from Positive Psychology and a strengths-based approach, we hope to help workplace professionals to become better positioned to promote and deliver services successfully across multiple generations currently at work, and those preparing to enter the workplace. One caution we must insert here is that generational differences are only one aspect of our diverse work environment. We should also consider: race, ethnicity, social class, gender, religion and culture – to name a few.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
