International
A short video summarizing some of the most important characteristics of students today - how they learn, what they need to learn, their goals, hopes, dreams, what their lives will be like, and what kinds of changes they will experience in their lifetime. Created by Michael Wesch in collaboration with 200 students at Kansas State University.

By St0n3r1234 [Affiliate User] 1208822012 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI think it should be compulsory for kids before college /uni to spend a few months or so in a third world country doing some sort of service/charity work.
Not for the poor in those countries , but for themselves.After seeing, living feeling tasting etc what many of the world lives day by day , you can never truely feel that sorry for yourself again.And that is one of the greatest blessings there is.How do i know ?
Seeing the change in myself.You come back feeling sooooo lucky and motivated.
Why the sad, poignant music? Most of those stats just show how lazy these students are! If you're paying a fortune for your education, read your books and do some work - Don't be idle and then hold up a pathetic card saying 'I buy $100 textbooks I never open' with a long face, as if it's not your fault! Don't sit there in lectures playing on facebook and then behave as if there's some deep flaw in the education system. The flaw is YOU.

By ajromisz [Affiliate User] 1208683633 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI really don't get the American Uni/College/IT's
In Ireland if you leave secondary school (highscool) and attend college in the following two years, the entire course is paid for - even a doctorate. Most students are also applicable for scholarships.
I don't understand how one of the major Superpower countries charges their future doctors to eventually save lives.
Im not out to diss your scheme I'm just making my opinion heard.
ummmm.... i dont get it
By michaelgwii [Affiliate User] 1208626479 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveMade me cry...
I've noticed this problem in myself, my friends, and most of my classmates. Thanks for putting it out their for us!!!
This is a sad commentary on Gen Y. They don't seem to care about anyhing but themselves. I weep for the future.
By kll510 [Affiliate User] 1208588984 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removesorry for my comments, it was rude of me.
your right i did assume, that was also very wrong.
I wish you the very best in a new life for your self after you have finished school.
You're making a lot of assumptions about me, bikersrule07. I didn't say only university students can think that way; I just said uni is good for teaching kids that. It isn't ALL bullshit. And no I don't go to a good school, have a good job or rich parents! I tried to put myself thru uni but had to quit cos I couldn't afford it. I'm now 39 & have a lot of regrets. My life is no picnic, mate, but I don't blame anyone else. And btw I admire self-starters (like my dad) a LOT. Is that pompous of me?!
By bluebellrock [Affiliate User] 1208541083 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeyour telling me someone who goes to school can only think indipendently ?
Your proberly going to goto school to get a good job, work for somone else...
try telling that to the 1000s of people who built a company from nothing, because they had nothing, no rich mom and dad to send them to school,your 1 pompous F**k bluebellrock
spoilt little wankers the lot of you, crying over a little bit of work, that will set you up for the rest of your life,many people including my self cant afford to goto school,not everyone has a rich mom and dad, who pays your way, stop whining and get on with your school,your regret it if you dont.
By bikersrule07 [Affiliate User] 1208538872 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI have difficulty connecting with this message. I see students saying they spend 8 - 10 hours/day playing rather than working/learning. The concern that the work isn't 'relevant' might be typical of a generation who have had their lives, their trinkets & beads and their self-esteem handed to them on silver platters. I wonder what form of work would seem relevant to this age-group? Or have we as parents/teachers so completely abdicated our responsibilities that this is the unavoidable outcome?
By rsjemmett [Affiliate User] 1208532102 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveNice job. I as a student myself relate to the things said in the video... I see that problems here where I come from are the same problems you can encounter everywhere... as well as in the US.
