Time to Spill the Tea* on Generation Z By Erica Jacoby

I H I G H E R T H I N G S __ 20

f you were born in America somewhere between 1996 and 2013, you have been named “Generation Z” by sociologists. You may also be referred to as “iGen” because your generation is the first to grow up with a tablet or a smartphone in hand; you are the first generation of true digital natives. You probably could “speak” technology before you could properly speak English. It is unprecedented! Catching up with your technological prowess is totally new and very scary for those of us who are older. Just when we almost catch up with you and your virtual world, you’ve moved on to something new!
