Shalini Shankar

4.9/5 (10343 ratings)

Description:An anthropologist uses spelling bees as a lens to examine the unique and diverse traits of Generation Z-and why they are destined for successOn first glance, Generation Z (youth born after 1997) seems to be made up of anxious overachievers, hounded by Tiger Moms and constantly tracked on social media. One would think that competitors in the National Spelling Bee-the most popular brain sport in America-would be the worst off. Counterintuitively, anthropologist Shalini Shankar argues that far from being simply overstressed and overscheduled, Gen Z kids are learning crucial twenty-first-century skills from their high-powered lives, displaying a sophisticated understanding of self-promotion, self-direction, and social mobility. Drawing on original ethnographic research, including interviews with participants, judges, and parents, Shankar examines the outsized impact of immigrant parents and explains why Gen Z kids are on a path to success.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
