1、TED演讲集educationTED演讲集：Sir Ken Robinson 谈推动学习革命 Bring on the learning revolution! education, in a way, dislocates very many people from their natural talents. And human resources are like natural resources; theyre often buried deep. You have to go looking for them. Theyre not just lying around on the
2、 surface. You have to create the circumstances where they show themselves. Every education system in the world is being reformed at the moment. And its not enough. Reform is no use anymore, because thats simply improving a broken model. What we need - and the words been used many times during the co
3、urse of the past few days - is not evolution, but a revolution in education. This has to be transformed into something else. One of the real challenges is to innovate fundamentally in education. Innovation is hard because it means doing something that people dont find very easy for the most part. It
4、 means challenging what we take for granted, things that we think are obvious. The great problem for reform or transformation is the tyranny of common sense - things that people think, Well, it cant be done any other way because thats the way its done. The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to
5、the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves and then we shall save our country. That there are ideas that all of us are enthralled to, which we simply take fo
6、r granted as the natural order of things, the way things are. And many of our ideas have been formed, not to meet the circumstances of this century, but to cope with the circumstances of previous centuries. But our minds are still hypnotized by them. And we have to disenthrall ourselves of some of t
7、hem. Everybody whos spoken at TED has told us implicitly, or sometimes explicitly, a different story, that life is not linear, its organic. We create our lives symbiotically as we explore our talents in relation to the circumstances they help to create for us. human communities depend upon a diversi
8、ty of talent, not a singular conception of ability. And at the heart of the challenge is to reconstitute our sense of ability and of intelligence. This linearity thing is a problem.The other big issue is conformity. We have built our education systems on the model of fast food. And we have sold ours
9、elves into a fast food model of education. And its impoverishing our spirit and our energies as much as fast food is depleting our physical bodies. I think we have to recognize a couple of things here. One is that human talent is tremendously diverse. People have very different aptitudes. But its no
10、t only about that. Its about passion. Often, people are good at things they dont really care for. Its about passion, and what excites our spirit and our energy. And if youre doing the thing that you love to do, that youre good at, time takes a different course entirely.You know this, if youre doing
11、something you love, an hour feels like five minutes. If youre doing something that doesnt resonate with your spirit, five minutes feels like an hour. And the reason so many people are opting out of education is because it doesnt feed their spirit, it doesnt feed their energy or their passion. So I t
12、hink we have to change metaphors. We have to go from what is essentially an industrial model of education, a manufacturing model, which is based on linearity and conformity and batching people. We have to move to a model that is based more on principles of agriculture. We have to recognize that huma
13、n flourishing is not a mechanical process, its an organic process. And you cannot predict the outcome of human development; all you can do, like a farmer, is create the conditions under which they will begin to flourish.So when we look at reforming education and transforming it, it isnt like cloning
14、 a system. There are great ones like KIPPs, its a great system. There are many great models. Its about customizing to your circumstances, and personalizing education to the people youre actually teaching. And doing that, I think is the answer to the future because its not about scaling a new solution; its about creating a movement in education in which people develop their own solutions, but with external support based on a personalized curriculum.
