My initial reaction to the “did you
know” video was that I noticed how fast the times are changing. The top ten
jobs in 2010 did not exist in 2008. That means that our schools are preparing
us for jobs that do not exist, and to solve problems that we have not thought
of yet. To me, it is frightening in a way to maybe have a job that I have no
idea that it exists yet. But in another way, it is exciting. I could be piloting
a whole new field of studies, and pioneering our knowledge of that field. More
texts are sent out a day then the global population. Technology has replaced
our human interaction. Just 10 years ago, cell phones were not very common and
you had to wait to talk to people. Now you can instantaneously send a message
to a whole group of people. But this technology has addicted the vast majority
of its users. There are more honors
students in India then there are kids in the United States. This means that
India will soon become the largest populated country and will have improvements
in education, science, technology, and math.
