Have you viewed the
YouTube Video, Did You Know? It was
updated for 2012 and can be watched at :
In this video it asks questions beginning with, “Did you know”. Here are some of the questions:
- China will soon be the number one English speaking country in the world?
- 25% of India’s brightest and best youth is a number larger than all the youth in the United States?
- ½ of what is learned in college by Freshman will be outdated by the time the young adult is a Junior?
- We are preparing youth for jobs that don’t exist which will solve problems we don’t even know about with technologies that haven’t yet been invented?
- There were 31,000,000,000 searches on Google last year?
- There are 5 times the number of words in English today than there were when Shakespeare was writing?
- In one newspaper issue today the reader gets more information that he/she would have had in a lifetime in the 1800’s?
The video ends with
the question—So, what does it all mean?
