This blog has previously expressed some scepticism about the claims for digital natives, millenials, gen y, the i-gen.

In this podcast and slideshow from the Engaging Students series, LTC’s Margot McNeill gives a run-down on the differences between baby boomers, gen x and gen y and their experiences of learning and teaching.

Note Margot’s words of caution at the end!  She stresses the importance of evidence-based research, evaluating situations as unique, and remaining open-minded and reflective.
