Young people know about international pop and movie stars, but know less about

famous historical people. Reasons and solutions.

Cinema celebrities and international pop performers acquire a significant concern of the young
generation’s attention, neglecting important historical personalities. This essay will analyse the
reasons behind this development and propose viable solutions to tackle this phenomenon.
Arguably, there seem to be two main causes that led to the increasing trend of gathering knowledge
about commercial contemporary stars instead of notable historical eminences. Educational scheme
throughout the formative years plays the most vital part in shaping one’s interests, as frequently
scholars are inclined to acknowledge only the information required in passing the exams. In
addition, the majority of media streaming channels distribute their attention to the sensational and
scandal, exploiting remarkable celebrities’ personal events to keep the visual consumer in a constant
thirst for drama, thus making history related topics uninteresting and vague.
Turning to solutions, reversing this phenomenon would necessitate implementing a few measures;
the most important would be adjusting the educational scheme to increase pupils’ interest for history
and relevant historical events. For example, ”Abbey College” in Birmingham has signed a
collaboration with a few museums, thus encouraging teachers to hold their classes there, for
practical purposes. Another solution concerns the entertainment sectors. Instead of prowling for the
sensational and exclusivity, media networks could also shape their programmes to challenge their
guests’ intellect, organising common knowledge games, thus encouraging the viewers in the
respective topic.
To sum up, education received in formative years seems to be the main reason for neglecting
important historical figures, but implementing certain projects could re-equilibrate this trend.
The figure present information regading the average temperature, measured in Fahrenheit degrees,
registered in every month, in three African Countries.
Kenya’s recorded temperatures start at 80 degrees in January and February, highest average monthly
temperature registers in March, peaking at slightly above 80 degrees, then it starts declining in the
next months, to the lowest value of 75 degrees, registered in July. Next months know a constantly
increasing trend to the incipital value. Egypt starts the year with a temperature of 55 degrees, that
increases steadily in the following months, culminating in July and August, at roughly above 80
degrees. By the end of the year, the climate becomes increasingly colder to a bit under 60 degrees in
December. The first 2 months bring 70 degrees for the South African population, then the
temperature decreases at a constant rate, registering it’s down-low in July, at 55 degrees. Then an
upward trend follows until the end of the year, when it stops slightly under 70 degrees.
Overall, it seems that Kenian population faces the least temperature differences throughout the year,
whereas in the other two countries are present significant gaps.
