The movie "Shift Happens" acquires information that when put together paints a picture of the future. It offers facts and statistics that tomorrow will advance much faster that previous generations are accustomed. It is an awakening compilation of information that shows me, a future educator, that not keeping up with advances in technology will result in a somewhat irrelevant pursuit.
The movie provided statistics on technology, such as the Internet, myspace, and text messaging. The Internet has become the fastest growing use of technology, surpassing television significantly. The number of Myspace members are equivalent to populations in countries. In fact, if a country consisted of the amount of the members it would be the eighth largest country in the world! The world is expected to change dramatically within the next ten years. In ten years China is predicted to be the most English speaking country in the world! Wow!
