Generation Y

         The generation I belong to would be "Generation Y."  That is being born between 1977 to 1998.  This generation understand a lot more about technology because they grew up in this environment.  Technology has always been part of their life, and the people in this generation probably would have a hard time without it.  They prefer to using online sources to learn, and taking online courses.  The primary source of communication is through technology, for example text messages. This generation is also more creative at solving problems.

         "Generation Y" people are individualistic, creative, and they like to write their own rules.  They work well in a team, and they strive for balance in their work and life.  They value in achievement and are confident in their ability to get things done within their time period.  

         This generation is most ethnically diverse generation ever.  More Hispanics and Asians along with other ethnics are growing.  The perceptions of other ethnics are changing also.  Generation Y is more open to accepting other diverse backgrounds and beliefs.  

         There has been lots of violence around the world that occurred.  The world is more concerned about violence now, and more cautious.  Since the attack on 9/11, and terrorism attacks, and school shootings people globally are taking violence more serious.
