New Publication: It’s Time to Rethink How We Teach Gen Z
Project GenZ is excited to share our new Times Higher Education article, written collaboratively with our RISE Gen Z students for their instructors. A common misconception is that Gen Z students don’t want to learn. They do, but their motivation has been shaped by a more digital, uncertain, and fast-changing world.
In this piece, our students share what educators should understand about how they learn, what frustrates them in the classroom, and what can better support their success.
