Integrating experiential and problem-based learning for generation Z and alpha: A comparative study

Abstract

This article explores the evolution of educational strategies, focusing on experiential and problem-based learning (PBL) in the context of Generation Z and Generation Alpha. Drawing from recent literature, it highlights technological advancements, learner preferences and pedagogical innovations. The discussion also reflects the influence of this literature on the author's own teaching practice at Lancaster University Management School, illustrating how experiential and problem-based approaches have been adapted to meet the expectations of Generation Z and Alpha learners.
