that may happen in the future.
To begin
with, there are two possible reasons that cause
this
change.
Firstly
, the younger generation tends to think
science
subjects
are useless than liberal arts,
such
as English.
Hence
the most popular subject among teenagers is English in Japan.
Furthermore
, despite
science
and related modules are less valued, students assume that STEM
subjects
are more difficult and complicated. As a matter of fact, around 75 per cent of the youngsters in Japan said yes to that the Japanese class is easier than math and
science
. On top of that, the national power will decline since the younger generation inclines to liberal arts.
This
is because the greatest invention is always made by scientists.
For instance
, Thomas Edison who contributed around 1300 electric inventions was good at math and
science
. He was
also
an entrepreneur and expanded America's economy largely.

today. In general, the Internet is based on math. Despite the gravity of the technology, if people value STEM
subjects
less, they will no longer able to out-compete
this
competitive society. To conclude, there are two main causes of
this
problem which are that people value
science
subjects
less, and they think
science
subjects
are difficult. As a consequence, the national power will drop since
science
is the foundation of
this
technology-based society.
