This Changes Everything



The COVID-19 crisis has really screwed up a lot of teenaged lives. In this episode, six students from Talawanda High School, in Oxford, Ohio, talk about how the pandemic has affected them—academically, socially, mentally—and what the experience might mean for Generation Z as a whole. The group also looks at how local, state, and federal officials have responded to the crisis and asks, "What can we learn from all this?" Episode producer and host Eliot Berberich is a freshman at Talawanda High School, but already an experienced student journalist and podcaster. Interview recorded May 8, 2020, with everyone calling into Eliot Berberich's home studio via Google Meet.

2) What would you change? Why?

3) What are you 'nostalgic' for (do you miss) from the way school was before? Explain.

4) Given the choice would you rather keep learning this way or go back to school in the Fall? Why?

5)  Decades down the line will do you think you will look back on this as a defining moment in your lives? Why?

6) What predictions do you make for how this will affect 'Generation Z' as a whole?
