  20. Generation Gap Baby Boomers and Generation Xers may have different Expectations than Millennials This is how “Generation Gaps” Arise

  21. Generation Gap Let’s explore a couple of examples of how this “Generation Gap” due to “Different Expectations”may cause “Generations to Clash”

  22. Clash of Generations Millennials: Expect a reward based on how hard they worked, and not necessarily on what they have accomplished, hence Millennials may expect grade inflation

  23. Clash of Generations Millennials: Like working on projects and activities in teams,and Like team based rewards/grades/recognition, hence Millennials may expect to be rewarded for the team’s accomplishments, even if your work on the team is sub-par

  24. Clash of Generations Millennials: Expect “teamwork” & “organized activities”, and do not consider “helping each other” as wrong, hence Millennials may not understand “My Generation’s” definition of scholastic dishonesty (cheating!) Millennials may Google and cut-and-paste and plagiarize, without proper citation. Millennials may help each other on take home exams, lab reports, etc. that are supposed to be completed alone.

  25. Clash of Generations Millennials: Expect to rise to the top quickly, hence Millennials may expect a high beginning salary. Millennials may expect to move up the ladder quickly, maybe without paying your dues.

  26. Clash of Generations Millennials: Do not expect job to control their life and other activities, hence Millennials may not be willing to put in the time some jobs require, i.e. “pay your dues”.

  27. Millennials Let’s not end on negatives about the “Millennials”

  28. Millennials - Positives Positives about these “Millennials” violent crime, tobacco and alcohol use, and teen pregnancy are down aptitude test scores, optimism about the future, and trust of mom & dad, authority and government are up you are the most respectful students I have ever taught your teamwork skills may be synergistic and allow you to accomplish more you are the best well educated, technologically advanced, and technologically comfortable generation in the history of the universe (as we know it)! Some feel you Millennials become the Next Great Generation

  29. What Should BeYour “Realistic” Expectations Millennials must realize:”My Generation” will assign their grades, hire them, promote them, and fire them. They must learn how to live and function in“My Generation’s System” Until of course Millennials Become the “Established Generation” and then they start setting the “Rules”
