Computer science Generation Z has never known the world without being connected, without being digital, without the mobile phone, without superfast internet.

Prominent features for generation Z learning behaviour in digital society environment
description Generation Z has never known the world without being connected, without being digital, without the mobile phone, without superfast internet. There are some myths stated that generation Z has a shorter attention span than a goldfish. An example of recently digital environment is Instagram, they have specialized to decreasing attention span of this generation. Each of young minds will progress from their brief 8 second frame of mind into 4 second filters. In other words, because of their increasing use of digital media, generation Z will soon process or filter out content within 4 second window, since time is so valuable to them.

Old school teachers are not prepared to teach the “future content” that Gen Z love. Future content includes software, hardware, digital, technological and social media.
