SubgroupsSubgroup (not subculture) according to
Jandt (2007): psychologists label this as a membership group based on vocation, hobby, or special skills, that, like cultures, provide patterns of behavior and values: these can be generational, occupational, expatriate, etc. These may pose communication problems with other subgroups just as the dominant culture they exist within and depend on may clash with other cultures.

Examples of SubgroupsExamples include: Generation X’ers, college
freshmen, prostitutes, vegetarians, doctors, teachers, Disney Corp. employees, punks, bikers and lesbian culture. Sometimes they are also know as deviant culture, which has no negative connotation, but simply reflects divergence from the greater culture they exist within. Membership can be longlasting or temporary but it is not exclusive. Like the larger cultures they exist within, members behave and think according to norms the subgroup endorses or espouses.

Argot (jargon, cant, slang)They can also be identified by argot, which is
the vocabulary of a subgroup, and is an important aspect of a subgroup’s identity and establishes the boundary of the subgroup. Indeed, terms applied pejoratively to a subgroup can help establish that culture. In some cases, the subgroups adopt such terms and give them new meanings and establish pride based on the identity whereas the word might have been a source of shame before.

ActivityFor your date range, in your group, in the next
2-3 minutes, think of as many events, products, or other important items you can think of for that ‘era’, and record it on the paper.
Can you identify any tendencies of that ‘generation’ from your own experiences or interaction with them?

Demographers have not reached a consensus on dates
Date ranges are guidelines and are not clearly defined.
Virtually every article read had different date ranges. At times, terms were used for radically different date ranges.

Generation XThe generation X (1961-1984)
Generation X is consistently characterized by being the first American generation to grow up as ‘latchkey kids’ having a set of parents working outside of the home.
Generation X grew up with:
cold war a high divorce rateMTV the first wave of computers and modern technology socially acceptable and media-driven casual sex.

Generation X in the workplace Gen X requires flexible schedules, democratic
leadership, variety in work duties, the ability to grow skill sets and recognition.. It has come of age in the information age, an era of constant activity, change and ever developing global marketplace. After growing up with absent parents, they understand the importance of being available to their families. X-ers are also innovative thinkers who crave variety of projects in their positions and they like different experiences.

retirement, and retirement benefits are very importantEmployee and employer loyalty have disappeared.Are less likely to be obsessed with work; They are more interested in preserving their quality of
life, even if it means staying at the same position in the labor hierarchy.
Dress more casuallyMembers of Generation Y are characterized as being more
racially and culturally tolerant than past generations.Gay rights and non-traditional gender roles have also
become more widely accepted.

Changes to Post-Secondary EducationHigher enrollmentMore students attend college part-time than
in previous yearsMore women are attendingMore students are over the age of twenty-fiveSeveral ‘generations’ in one class at a time;
professors are still mostly Baby Boomers (50+), some older Gen-Xers (40+)

Attitudes of MillennialsComputers aren't technology Typing is preferred to handwriting. Staying connected is essential. There is zero tolerance for delays. Consumer and creator are blurring. Reality is no longer real. (Perspectives) Doing is more important than knowing. Learning more closely resembles games than
logic. Multitasking is a way of life.

Millennial Generation Learning Preference TendenciesTeamworkExperiential activitiesStructureUse of technology (students believe they are

Implications for Educators and School CulturesSchools, colleges and universities are providing a
various options to meet students' expectations for service, immediacy, interactivity.
There is no one ‘correct’ formula’.Students often range in ages/generations, learning
styles, and preferences in communication.Administrators and educators must adapt their
facility, curriculum, classes, etc. to meet the needs of such a varied range of students, taking into consideration the tendencies of certain generations, their preferences and learning styles.

Cultural Borders and Mental Barriers: The Relationship Between Living Abroad and CreativityWilliam W. Maddux and Adam D. Galinsky
Abstract: Despite abundant anecdotal evidence that creativity is associated with living in foreign countries, there is currently little empirical evidence for this relationship.Five studies employinga multimethodapproach systematically explored the link between living abroad and creativity. Using both individual and dyadic creativity tasks, Studies 1 and 2 provided initial demonstrations that time spent living abroad (but not time spent traveling abroad) showed a positive relationship with creativity. Study 3 demonstrated that priming foreign living experiences temporarily enhanced creative tendencies for participants who had previously lived abroad. In Study 4, the degree to which individuals had adapted to different cultures while living abroad mediated the link between foreign living experience and creativity. Study 5 found that priming the experience of adapting to a foreign culture temporarily enhanced creativity for participants who had previously lived abroad. The relationship between living abroad and creativity was consistent across a number of creativity measures (including those measuring insight, association, and generation), as well as with masters of business administration and undergraduate samples, both in the United States and Europe, demonstrating the robustness of this phenomenon.
