Web Seminars Contributed by EDUCAUSE, Net Generation Learner, and Teaching and Learning

Student Life is evolving exponentially and technology is driving the demands of the next generation of students. The prudent planning, financing, and operating of the Student Life facilities of the future will require accurate data, insight, and a peek into the crystal ball. The presenters will illustrate the impact of emerging trends on student lifestyle, media consumption, entertainment, personal communications, fitness, and computing needs found in the campus facilities that support Student Life.

The rise of the millenials has spawned new conversations about engagement and learning on today's college campuses. But what do these Net Gen learners really want? From the mouth of a confessed Net junkie, learn what makes these students tick, what ticks them off, and what faculty and administrators need to know to bridge the generational divide. Using anecdotes from her own life and the lives of her peers, Carie Windham will provide an overview of Net Gen characteristics and how those characteristics translate to the classroom, including the "Ten Commandments of Net Gen Teaching and Engagement."
