The Millennial babies


Gone are the good old days when students visit libraries to clear their doubt. In an era where everything is ruled by internet, the students of this era demand more than just an ordinary classroom and a bag of text books.

The expectations of the students are very high. They read daily news in tabloids rather in a newspaper. They have huge desire to learn but they don’t want to do it in the old fashioned way. They want to use modern means of education tools to learn. At a time, where people search even for a restaurant on social media, students too want to learn in a much socialized way rather a small class room.

They want to utilize the latest technology to get the best out of education. They want to learn at their own pace from the comforts of their home. They want to network with people across the globe and learn from their experiences. They want real time experience rather than reading text books.

The students of this generation are more interested in typing than talking. Whether it is games or studies they want everything online. They don’t want to spend hours of precious time travelling to schools or colleges in heavy traffic. They want to study online, earn a degree and invent new technology and make the world a better place to live.
