- Abstract: The Generation Z (Gen Z), or the digital natives have never experienced a
life without the internet. In addition, the advancement of digital technologies
such as social media, smart mobile technologies, cloud computing, and the
Internet-of-things has transformed how individuals perform their day-to-day
activities. Especially for Gen Z, the use of digital technology has become an
essential part of their daily routine, as a result, challenging the norm. As
such, Gen Z displays unique learning characteristics which are different from
previous generations. This change opens new avenues for exploring the impact of
digital technology on the learning characteristics of Gen Z and possible
applications to the higher education environment. By conducting a literature
review of 80 studies, this paper presents a comprehensive framework for
understanding the influence of digital technologies on the learning
characteristics of Gen Z in higher education.
