PEW Millennial Test

A Millennial is the up and coming generation.  Born in 1981, I am a Millennial.  The average score for a Millennial is a 73, I scored a 94 on the test.  I took it twice cause I thought I messed something up.  This is a really interesting site.  It goes over the entire demographic of Millennials and breaks down their characteristics in terms of their connections through multimedia outlets and social networking sites.  The site also provides info on social trends, values, and political views.  There is also a full report with much more detailed information available as a PDF.  This is a site that I'll be sharing with my friends.  Until this website I hadn't seen such comprehensive data on my generation.



This assignment fits the ISTE NETS T standard 3 because it is a very relevant site with applicable information for modeling digital age work that can serve colleagues, students, and parents.  One could adapt many engaging lesson plans using this website if they were to take some time with it and read over the information available to them.
