What We Know of the Gen Z Profile

• prefer to learn independently at own pace

• 8-second attention span

• learn best with visuals/apps with simple interface

• (as digital natives) used to instant gratification / immediate feedback

What Else

• "Lecture-style learning is no longer relevant and will not drive engagement... Around 51% of Gen Z talent learn best through hands-on learning experiences, while only 12% learn by listening." - ^{https://www.weforum.org}
