The aptitudes, attitudes, expectations, and learning styles of Net Gen students reflect the environment in which they were raised–one that is decidedly different from that which existed when faculty and administrators were growing up. This collection explores the Net Gen and the implications for institutions in areas such as teaching, service, learning space design, faculty development, and curriculum. Contributions by educators and students are included. http://www.educause.edu/educatingthenetgen

They rush to prevent any harm from befalling them or letting them learn from their own mistakes, sometimes even contrary to the children’s wishes. They are so named because, like a helicopter, they hover closely overhead, rarely out of reach whether their children need them or not. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_parent

A panel representing the viewpoints of various roles and types of institutions will respond to the issues raised by the student panel. The panelists will address concerns regarding the appropriate role of the faculty, changes in student cognition, student behavior in the classroom, learning outcomes, and ambient learning. If the net generation is re-defining the learning environment what are the implications for the campus and for the roles represented by the panelists? http://www.educause.edu/LibraryDetailPage/666?ID=NLI0518
