Week 3 EOC: My Demographics



-“One thing that all of the Millennials have in common is their utter fluency and comfort with digital technology. They don’t just embrace technology, it’s a way of life. The Millennials were the first generation to grow up in a world filled with computers, cellphones, satellite TV, iPods, and online social networks”



My demographic is millennial born 1986. After reading a few articles during my research I would have to agree for the most part of what exactly the millennial generation is all about. Reason being is when I read about technology is suppose to change everything and the world is going to be a bit more convenient than the past, I do agree with that part but not the part where we as millennials were meant to go to school and make great of yourself. In my opinion school nowadays comes second for the most part. From the 80’s and 90’s it was all school and then came the 20th century. Things got a little more difficult as the economy went south and education became more as a choice such as the the 70’s. Similar to when kids had to grow up fast and become a working individual. I believe it is important going forward with the millennial generation because we are the leader of the new school. We are came from the more important transition from the when technology had finally showed its face to the public with the iphones and computers and so forth. As we got older with these types of gadgets we are now teaching the boomers how to handle them. It’s funny how time has reversed itself.
