The academic world is buzzing with a new scientific revelation and in typical [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/youtube-summarizer) fashion, the 'Sonnet on a Higgs' gives a talented observer's two cents on the matter.

A short 40-second [video animation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/symvol) accompanies the 14-line poem. Using rhyming prose, it educates those who are not quite familiar with what a Higgs particle is or what its discovery means in the simplest of terms. The cute picture tutorial that frames the poem makes the otherwise dry and boring scientific lecture a pleasant experience to be enjoyed by all ages.

The poem and animation-fused educational video concept could be a breakthrough in how the future of learning is going to go. Similar to the video style of the massively popular [Khan Academy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/financial-literacy-course), the 'Sonnet on a Higgs' spot represents a change in the way we synthesize content.
