give them a exercise to where they can see what can happen in a couple of different senerios and compare it in a classroom discussion.

I Learned that "Teaching across generations can be facilitated if instructors allow for self-discovery and fulfillment. "
I always try in incorporate my life experiences when I teach. The students always remember when I tell them specfic story that happened about what was in the lecture.
It is important to remember that while we are the instructor at a point we have to be more of a guide to our students. Once they grasp the basic premise of the information we must guide them to practice and apply their new found knowledge. While doing this they may come up with a method themselves!
One of the best method of teaching is sharing life experiences in the career the learner is interested in. This is very important to implement in classroom to help students of generations succeed.
Stratigic teaching based on generational characteristics is key to student retention..
I got a better understanding of Gen Y and Gen Z and how they prefer to learn. I learned what is required to better engage these younger gerneration students. I intend to apply this to better engage students and facilitate theri learning. I will keep in mind that the younger students tend to disconnect after a short time in lectures.
I use my real life experiences to facilitate the learning experience. It really helps students understand how it applies in the real world.
I become a vessel of information for the student. Any information the student need I facilitate.
I like to use job story experiences in classroom lectures related to the lesson for better understanding.
I liked the part where it talked about using personal experinece as examples. We all have diferent life experiences, and incorporating that in the classroom would be great. It also engages the students.
