Generation Z describes those born from ~1997–2009, and Generation Alpha refersto people born in or after 2010. The Gen Alpha student will be one who is truly a “digitalnative”—they will not have known a world without pervasive touchscreen devices. Colleges andUniversities must be ready for possible changes in the learning methodologies required to meetthis new generation. Use of computing devices in primary and secondary education has growntremendously through the use of one-to-one (1:1) device or technology programs.

Sometimes, when pressed for time, “Googling” seems like the best way toproceed. Overtime, this strategy can become a habit, and with it brings a number of caveats.Nichols, for example fears “…we are witnessing the death of the ideal of expertise itself, aGoogle-fueled, Wikipedia-based, blog-sodden collapse of any division between professionalsand laypeople, students and teachers, knowers and wonderers—in other words, between those ofany achievement in an area and those with none at all” [1, p. 3].Besides often eliminating the need to process new information and think critically
