When we go to unfamiliar places we encounter people from different people who have different customs, different words, and different values. Technology has changed the world and sometimes I experience "culture shock" trying to understand young people who have been raised with the internet and smartphones. In Young Life, I constantly get opportunities to learn more about the culture of Gen Z and I often come across resources that I like to pass on. Here is a brief video that helps explain how young people use social media. When you watch it, note specifically what they say in regard to creating identity in a digital world. This 2-minute video helps you better understand the emerging new culture and how their time spent in digital spaces affects their face-to-face interactions. It is the 3rd video in a series of 4 that is very informative and helpful in relating to Gen Z. Thanks for partnering with Sitka Young Life and for caring about young people!
