A post by someone else who might be in your class asked a question and said she would copy our responses into a workbook. I have taught students from other cultures where the knowledge is just given to them, and they are not encouraged to do independent work. That must be the way they do it in Saudi, but it isn't what is done here. We do not just give out answers, because in our system, students are supposed to do some work to learn them on their own, too. This is to prepare them to be life-long learners when there is not a teacher looking at them all the time.
At AllNurses we expect that any student who wants an answer to a homework question MUST tell us what she has learned about the question already. We tried to explain this after her post. Here we are again.
What do you already know about working with an intergenerational staff? What do you see as the problems and advantages? Tell us, open the discussion, before we just give you the answers.
thanks Dear

My idea about multigenerational staff you have Four categories each one in a different class advantages and problems
What are they? Other than copying out the list (without citation), how do you think you should manage each one, and how to deal with them as a group?
