<P> The development of technology gave mobility and immediacy to Generation Z's consumption habits . The on - demand economy, defined as "the economic activity created by technology companies that fulfill consumer demand via the immediate provisioning of goods and service", has made changes in the way goods or services are delivered to consumers . Only the generation that grows up in the center of this transformation period will establish themselves as an immediacy demanding consumer . </P> <P> Research conducted in 2017 reports that the social media usage patterns of this generation may be associated with loneliness, anxiety, and fragility and that girls may be more affected than boys by social media . Cyberbullying is more common now than the previous generation, millennials . It's more common among girls because they tend to use social media more . This results in young girls feeling more vulnerable to being excluded and undermined; while boys take matters into their own hands resulting in something more physical . "More than twice as many girls as boys said they had been cyberbullied in the last year . (22% vs. 10%)" (Child Mind Institute, 2017) </P> <P> According to a Northeastern University Survey, 81% of Generation Z believes obtaining a college degree is necessary in achieving career goals . As Generation Z enters high school, and they start preparing for college, a primary concern is paying for a college education without acquiring debt . Students report working hard in high school in hopes of earning scholarships and the hope that parents will pay the college costs not covered by scholarships . Students also report interest in ROTC programs as a means of covering college costs . According to NeaToday, a publication by the National Education Association, two thirds of Gen Zers entering college are concerned about affording college . One third plan to rely on grants and scholarships and one quarter hope that their parents will cover the bulk of college costs . While the cost of attending college is incredibly high for most Gen Zers, according to NeaToday, 65% say the benefits of graduating college exceed the costs . </P> <P> "Generation Z" is revolutionizing the educational system in many aspects . Thanks in part to a rise in the popularity of entrepreneurship and advancements in technology, high schools and colleges across the globe are including entrepreneurship in their curriculum . Parents of Generation Z might have the image of their child's first business being a lemonade stand or car wash . While these are great first businesses, Generation Z now has access to social media platforms, website builders, 3D printers, and drop shipping platforms which provides them with additional opportunities to start a business at a young age . The internet has provided a store front for Generation Z to sell their ideas to people around the world without ever leaving their house . </P>
