1. A Brief History of Education by Peter Gray (2008)
"The teacher says, "you must do your work and then you can play." Clearly, according to this message, work, which encompasses all of school learning, is something that one does not want to do but must; and play, which is everything that one wants to do, has relatively little value. That, perhaps, is the leading lesson of our method of schooling. If children learn nothing else in school, they learn the difference between work and play and that learning is work, not play."

2. The "Opportunity Gap" in US Public Education- And How To Fix It by Anindya Kundu (2019)
"Cultivating as much talent as possible, getting as many girls as we can from all over into science and engineering, as many boys as we can into teaching -- those are investments for our future. Our students are like our most valuable resource, and when you put it that way, our teachers are like our modern-day diamond and gold miners, hoping to help make them shine. Let's contribute our voices, our votes and our support to giving them the resources that they will need not just to survive but hopefully thrive, allowing all of us to do so as well."

1. Is There A Real You? by Julian Baggini (2011)
"But if you think of yourself as being, in a way, not a thing as such, but a kind of a process, something that is changing, then I think that's quite liberating. Because unlike the the waterfalls, we actually have the capacity to channel the direction of our development for ourselves to a certain degree."

2.  Is There A Real You? by Julian Baggini (2011)
"So I want to get that message over, that what we need to do is think about ourselves as things that we can shape, and channel and change. This is the Buddha, again: "Well-makers lead the water, fletchers bend the arrow, carpenters bend a log of wood, wise people fashion themselves." And that's the idea I want to leave you with, that your true self is not something that you will have to go searching for, as a mystery, and maybe never ever find. To the extent you have a true self, it's something that you in part discover, but in part create. and that, I think, is a liberating and exciting prospect."

1. Pop Culture is Dead! by Phil Miller (2015)
"So, back to the original question, is pop culture dead? Has it been hijacked by mass media? Are we being told what we should think now rather than developing it ourselves? Or, are we actually creating popular culture, now, ourselves, through social media every single second of every single day?"

2. Pop Culture is Dead! by Phil Miller (2015)
"When certain ideas, interests or choices reach a critical mass within a society, they become widespread and proliferate through that society, a definition of popular culture. But what happens when the mechanism for the spread of popular culture becomes  part of popular culture itself? Take Google, it’s a proper noun. It’s also a verb, and an intrinsic part of our popular culture."

If there is one takeaway from this assignment, it's that schooling, identity, and pop culture are strongly connected. I believe identity is at the foreground of every aspect of our lives. Who we are, and why we are that way, is extremely important and is something that many things, including schooling and pop culture, have an influence on. The experiences we go through during schooling, and the things we involve ourselves with in pop culture continuously help shape and influence our identities.
A similarity shared between identity, schooling, and pop culture is that they are always changing. Our identities are constantly evolving, and Julian Baggini"s TED Talk "Is There a Real You?" does a good job at illustrating this. Baggini illustrates how we are in control of our identities, and how we have the capability to always change them. Similar to identity, pop culture is another thing that is always changing. Ever since the term "popular culture" was coined, it's always been evolving. In Phil Miller's TED Talk, "Pop Culture Is Dead!" he elaborates on the changes pop culture has gone through over the years, and that now pop culture is dominated by mass media and smartphones. Social media and recent technology have greatly impacted pop culture, and pop culture today is not the same as it used to be due to these technological changes. Schooling is also always changing and evolving. As noted in Peter Gray's "A Brief History of Education," school has drastically changed from what it used to be. Schooling, identity, and pop culture are all constantly changing and evolving. What we experience in school and enjoy in pop culture are always shaping our identities. These three things are always working continuously to help us become who we are.
