=Project 6 - MIM for Generations=

Students will conduct research on the following four generations: Silent (Mature) Generation, Babyboomers, Generation X, and Generation Y. Student teams will use their research to create an interactive poster that included the following: *a minimum of 6 facts about each generation. In addition to the 6 facts, student teams must include each generation's, *needs, and *typical buying habits. Interactive posters should also include 2 pictures for each generation and at least one video for one of the four generations. Student teams will utilize Glogster to create their interactive posters.

Posters will be embedded on the team project page. In addition to the normal heading, the team project page must answer the following questions:
 * 1) How can companies utilize this type of research?
