Understanding Today's Students EDU 909 Understanding Today's Students

Eduspire’s courses are offered by Wilson College as individual 3-credit graduate-level courses, and most courses can also be taken as part of the Master of Educational Technology (MET) degree program.

This course delves into the powerful societal and technological influences contributing to the development and perspectives of today's students. Culture and technology are contributing to changing worldviews, expectations, and practices in families, schools, and communities today.  Students are learning in a world that is very different from what it was just a few decades ago.

Understanding Today's Students examines the attitudes, behaviors, and the emotional and mental health of students. It explores the opportunities and challenges inherent in current parenting, education and technology trends. Strategies are discussed for effectively engaging, equipping, and empowering Generation Z (b. 1996-2009) and Gen Alpha (b. 2010-2024) learners.

*Participants in this course will have a mandatory, synchronous, video conference session. The date and time are listed on each course registration page.
