Technological progress has influenced the way we acquire knowledge and learn. On the other hand, the Internet provides fast access to information technology in different fields and thus, improves efficiency and saves time. The importance of online technology is especially emphasized in new methods for learning and education. This is particularly important among Generation Z (“Gen Z″), which derives knowledge from the Internet and is focused on a quick search of information. The aim of this paper is to determine how technology and the Internet affect the acquisition of knowledge by Generation Z, and which forms of knowledge acquisition this generation prefers. In our paper, the problem concerns various forms of learning and acquiring knowledge. Research was conducted among 498 young people actively using an online peer-to-peer knowledge-sharing community. The results of ANOVA analysis showed the respondents being more partial towards learning via mobile applications and video content over the traditional form. It also discovered that the students tended to emulate their teachers who integrated modern technologies into their curriculum and used it outside classroom hours for learning. The results of this research make several important theoretical contributions to the gap in knowledge acquisition by Gen Z, and provide several important practical recommendations for educators.

技术进步影响了我们获取知识和学习方式。另一方面，因特网提供了在不同领域中对信息技术的快速访问，从而提高了效率并节省了时间。在线技术的重要性在学习和教育的新方法中得到了特别强调。这在Z世代（“ Z世代”）中尤为重要，Z世代从互联网获取知识，并专注于信息的快速搜索。本文的目的是确定技术和互联网如何影响Z世代的知识获取，以及该世代更喜欢哪种形式的知识获取。在我们的论文中，问题涉及学习和获取知识的各种形式。使用在线对等知识共享社区积极地对498名年轻人进行了研究。方差分析的结果表明，与传统形式相比，受访者更倾向于通过移动应用程序和视频内容进行学习。研究还发现，学生倾向于效仿他们的老师，他们将现代技术集成到他们的课程中，并在课堂时间以外的时间用于学习。这项研究的结果为Z世代在知识获取方面的差距做出了重要的理论贡献，并为教育工作者提供了一些重要的实践建议。研究还发现，学生倾向于效仿他们的老师，他们将现代技术集成到他们的课程中，并在课堂时间以外的时间用于学习。这项研究的结果为Z世代在知识获取方面的差距做出了重要的理论贡献，并为教育工作者提供了一些重要的实践建议。研究还发现，学生倾向于效仿他们的老师，他们将现代技术集成到他们的课程中，并在课堂时间以外的时间用于学习。这项研究的结果为Z世代在知识获取方面的差距做出了重要的理论贡献，并为教育工作者提供了一些重要的实践建议。
