Expectation of Education and Popular Culture

            In the present day, education is regarded as one of the most important tools of life. As a result I believe that with education, I am able to fight ignorance and thus become more knowledgeable, enhance my level of critical thinking and also enhance my understanding of the world around us. Through reading broadly and researching I believe that I am able to gain numerous knowledge that is important for the survival in the present day world. That is the reason I prefer to further my education up to this point. If it were not for the greater expectations that I have in education, I do not believe that I would be where I am today.

            One of our greatest motivation for educations, is that we are motivated by the fruits that come along with becoming educated. Some of these motivations are a good job, good house and to be able to earn a living. These may be perceived as secondary expectations but it is important to highlight that these goals are the very reason as to why most individuals have embraced education in the present day, especially the young population. In the present day, sites such as YouTube one of the common sites across the United States. Most individuals are able to gain from it in one way or another. The website has everything that one would require and thus on can get videos that relate to a certain subjects or even videos that motivate one to continue working hard in education. In the present day most students my age, perceive the YouTube one of the best site and easy to use site. An individual is able to subscribe to the channels that he or she believes that are of interest to him or her. For example if we had a lecture in the morning that discussed about recession, it would be very easy for me to be able to get other videos that discuss about recession in America in depth. Such channels in YouTube also embrace the use of humor in teaching and thus most us (students) are able to relate to the learning with ease. YouTube has become one of the best pop cultures for many students across the United States and most of the students are able to relate to the videos since no one knows them and also it is better due to the fact that one is able to rewind, forward or even play over and over so as to be able to enhance understanding. There are also numerous posts on real one on one interviews of individuals that have been able to succeed in education, regardless of their background and thus becoming a constant source of motivation.
