Some Research • According to a survey of teachers in the UK conducted in 2008 by the Association of Teachers and Lecturers, young people most frequently chose sports stars as role models, followed by pop stars. • Many, however, simply aspired to be "famous for being famous", believing that fame and fortune could be easily accessed through reality television.
Have Role Models Changed? • The world of celebrity • Instagram, facebook, twitter mean the celebrity world is accessible to all • Reality TV stars also now play a big part on social culture • Role models not always positive
Final Thoughts • We all have role models. We should take time to think “why do I model myself on that person?” • Many of you will be role models for brothers/sisters, friends, people in clubs or classes you may not know very well. • Your teachers know they are role models for you. They consciously model politeness, enthusiasm and a positive approach to study. • Are you a role model to others? • If so what kind of role model are you?
