Millennials and learning preferences

It is often cited that the median age of Filipinos is 23. This means that for the foreseeable future, most of the new hires and young professionals will be in this growing age group. This fact presents new challenges and opportunities, among them ensuring the proper training and development of these so-called “millennials.” But choosing the most effective way to teach them has been more complicated than anticipated. What most educators have assumed would be the most natural fit for millennials, that is, online learning, has not always proven to be a hit with this age group. The more traditional “face to face” interaction is still popular, and even preferred. (I should also explain that this pertains only to the millennials’ preferred mode of learning; the best way to “sell” such courses is still through social media and online sites.)
