Get Your Students Hired
Some of generalizations regarding generation X I do not agree with. Yes, some students due need constant reminding that they are doing well. While the majority of students from this generation I have found to be very independent and sophisticated.
I feel the same way regarding the generalizations involving Generation X. I believe that although the baby boomers might struggle a bit with advanced technology, there is always a will to learn and advance. Our generation X not only has the experience of manual documentation, learning habits, but now also have the ability of incorporating new and advanced technology.
I'm not sure what you read, but it is my understanding of this course that Gen X DOES work independantly and DOES NOT need constant reinforcement. You are describing GEN Y, not X.
Agree. These generalizations are dangerous and can create a false sense of the identities of these students for the instructor.
