Algorithm of Accountability: Reprogramming Conduct for the Gen Z Mindset Webinar

Description

Part of our Belonging on Campus Series! As Gen Z enters higher education, student conduct professionals must adapt leadership strategies to meet their needs. This session, led by Gen Z administrators, encourages dialogue on supporting students and staff. Participants will gain insights to enhance engagement, address biases, and create inclusive environments that strengthen conduct practices and effectiveness.

Learning Outcomes:

• Identify key generational traits and values of Gen Z students that influence their engagement with and perception of the student conduct process (digital comms, transparency, fairness).
• Examine how learned helplessness influences the effectiveness of student conduct outcomes and sanctions.
• Evaluate the impact of communication style, tone, and timing on Gen Z students’ willingness to engage with the conduct process.
• Integrate Gen Z perspectives into decision making to create more equitable restorative, and educational, conduct practices.
• Recognize common disconnects between Gen Z student expectations and and traditional conduct administration practices
