In this episode of Learning Unboxed, I’m joined by Jeff Utecht, co-host of the Shifting Schools podcast and a consultant focused on generational change and AI in education. We explore how different generations—Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, Gen Z, and even Gen Alpha—bring unique values and expectations to both learning and work, and why understanding these differences is crucial for educators navigating today’s evolving classroom and workforce.Jeff shares practical insights on adapting to digitally native students who expect gamified, collaborative experiences and discusses how tools like generative AI can help educators meet these changing needs.To learn more, visit: pastfoundation.orgWe unbox:How generational experiences shape learning styles and valuesNavigating the challenges of four generations in the workplace and classroomWhy Gen Z and Alpha learners expect gamification and collaborationThe importance of authenticity and embracing failure in educationLeveraging AI to bridge generational gaps and support new approaches to teachingResources:Listen to the Shifting Schools Podcast – Weekly conversations on modern schooling, leadership, and educational innovation.Connect with Jeff Utecht for consulting or speaking via his website or on LinkedInRead: Generations by William Strauss and Neil HoweProduced by NOVA
