The biggest millennial learning myth
Many regard millennials as vastly different from the previous generation. This modern tech-savvy Internet generation, or Gen Y, is often portrayed by various experts as collaborative, open-minded, job-hoppers, expressive, liberal, and receptive to new ideas.

These notions about generational differences often form the basis for developing a learning strategy for any generation. However, this itself is the biggest myth. Despite the prevalent L&D belief in generation-specific learning preferences, the truth is that the basic expectations across generations are similar—variations are much less dramatic than we’ve been led to believe.

It is important to keep in mind that everyone is unique in his or her own way, so cultural norms should be viewed as guidelines, not as absolutes. This awareness will serve to enhance Extension's services and communications with audiences, rather than to stereotype individuals or communities.
