It is stated that the experience of former generations is no longer relevant for Generation Z, therefore we need to seek new ways of education and upbringing, to renovate the educational process, taking into account the features of modern youth: to "facilitate" educational material, modify the presentation format, create video clips with illustrative examples and experiments, plan students' learning activities step by step, and etc. It is concluded that in order to provide practicing teachers with recommendations, thorough Generation Z research studies are necessary.
