The authors describe the traits, typologies, and behaviors of Generation Z (those born after 1997) to set the stage for the changes needed to engage this generation of students in the classroom. Using this knowledge about Generation Z as a foundation, the authors call for innovative approaches to teaching that engage students actively in the classroom, improve motivation, and enhance their overall experience and knowledge gained from the college experience. This shift in how to deliver education aligns with Generation Z's expectations, but, the authors argue, it takes time and creativity on the part of instructors, who need to be fully supported by the university to be successful and impactful.
