We wanted to talk about 21st century 
education. We are living through an 
educational revolution. The pace of change 
is staggering. Schools, regions, entire 
countries are turning education on its head 
and rede�ning the experiences of students 
and of teachers. The impact is felt by 
millions of children and their families around 
the world. Let’s consider for a moment the 
world in which they live: a world with so 
much knowledge that is hard to grasp. 
People are creating 2000 new websites 
every hour. They are uploading 35 hours of 
video every minute, and watching 2 billion 
YouTube videos every day. […]
In response, education leaders are making 
big changes, building 21st century 
skills, using enabling technologies, 
and personalizing learning to engage 
students in diverse and creative ways. 
In South Korea, schools are switching to 
digital textbooks, so students can study 
anytime and anywhere, with online hours 
recognized as school attendance. In 
Denmark, students are using the internet 
while taking exams. They can access any 
site they like, even Facebook, as long as 
they don’t message each other or use 
e-mail. In the USA, ultrapersonalized 
learning approaches allow students to 
create their own individual schedules. [...]
Learning can happen anywhere and 
everywhere.

But here’s a thing Sanjay, I’m not saying 
that you can’t post these things, I’m just 
saying that you need to understand how 
social media works. You want to put 
yourself at risk? Go ahead! Because there 
are already features built into these social 
media platforms to protect you. How about 
you change the privacy settings on your 
posts? If you are going to post something 
that has sensitive information, limit it to 
your friends only, or to a certain amount of 
people. Is there somebody you want to get 
to, then limit the post to that. Don’t just 
make everything public and then anybody 
from anywhere, someone in Bangalore, in 
India, can say “uh, I hate that girl!”. Just 
be careful about how you do the thing. […]

So let’s get started. I think one of the main 
things that draws people into this lifestyle 
is this idea or notion that happiness is 
increased or the quality of life is improved. 
Now, advertisements keep telling us that 
stuff will make us happy, but it is only by 
having them we will feel ful�lled. Having 
that perfect man or woman, the body of 
your dreams, the most luxurious car or 
house. But happiness is a state of being 
and not having. […]
So, on that note, minimalism means just 
buying those things that you need and 
then on occasion buying those things that 
you want, but not buying those things that 
you want in excess. And in doing so, you 
save money. [...]
Less consumption means less waste, and 
by recycling and donating those things that 
you no longer need, that means someone 
else can bene�t from it, which means 
they’re going to be buying less of the new 
stuff and less waste yet again. […]

Hi, friends! Welcome back to my channel. 
You are probably watching this video 
because English is not your �rst language, 
and you are debating of like whether 
you should use English or your �rst 
language in your Youtube channel. I 
really understand that struggle, because 
although I may sound very �uent and like 
very con�dent on YouTube right now, I 
actually struggled with this before. […] 
So, the main reason that most of us want 
to use English for our YouTube channel is 
because we want to reach out to a wider 
range of people, which makes sense 
because most people understand English 
better. […] 
So, if you are not so con�dent in speaking in 
English because, like, you’re worried of your 
accent or you’re worried that your English is 
not perfect, don’t worry about it. […] 
So, you see, whatever language that you 
choose, as long as you’re providing like 
valuable content and you come across as 
a con�dent person, you’re comfortable on 
screen, that’s all that matters. […]

Victims of the transatlantic slave trade and 
their descendants have shaped Brazil’s 
economy, politics, spirituality, art, culture 
and sports. An African soul permeates the 
very essence of contemporary Brazil. 
Ao todo, cerca de 10 milhões de pessoas 
foram raptadas da África durante toda a 
escravidão colonial.
