Unexpected Ways Millennials Are Impacting Higher Education - Zach Cutler, Huffington Post
The flipped classroom can be a great way to get Millennials involved and collaborating toward their own education.

Allowing students to teach each other puts them in control of their own educational journey, getting students involved in the learning process with a hands-on perspective. Millennials are rapidly expanding the traditional college classroom, demanding more online learning solutions and a more collaborative atmosphere between students and teachers. If higher education institutions take note, they'll be ready not only for Gen Y, but also for the upcoming Gen Z.
