There’s no denying the impact that the digital age has had on the influence of pop culture. Whether it’s the newest hot pop record or the latest viral video, younger generations are becoming more and more consumed by the pop culture landscape.

 
To keep pace with these shifts in interest, the way foundational content is taught must evolve. One way to structure courses in an accessible and engaging way is to meet students where their interests lie by bringing pop culture into the classroom.
 
Learn how you can start using elements of pop culture to create an environment where students are more engaged, better prepared, and ultimately more enthusiastic about your course content.
