Department of Student Affairs Organises Quiz Series: World of Computers
GenZ and technology are inseparable. Computers are just one small example of that. While GenX played a pioneering role in introducing computers in day-to-day life, GenZ has undoubtedly mastered that and evolved into becoming the digital shepherd of a new era in the arena of technology adoption and reliance. Most members of Generation Z have used digital technology since a young age and are comfortable with computers and internets. GenZers, children of GenX, are the first digital natives, born between 1997 and 2012, into a world of vast technological advances and innovations. They are unlike other generations, who either grew up without or came into adulthood during the rise of social media, smartphones and instant accessibility of information. The Department of Student Affairs of SRM University-AP has organised a quiz content to encourage technology fondness among the students. The quiz is on the computer sciences with particular emphasis on the ‘World of computers’. All students of SRM University-AP are encouraged to participate in the contest and face the fun-filled challenges to test their knowledge. The event is scheduled today at 5 p.m.
