Reviewer Gopalco When I was 27 years old,
2
I left a very demanding job in management consulting for a job that was even more demanding, teaching.
3
I went to teach seventh graders math in the New York City public schools.
4
And like any teacher, I made quizzes and tests, I gave out homework assignments.
5
When the work came back, I calculated grades.
6
What struck me was that IQ was not the only difference between my best and my worst students.
7
Some of my strongest performers did not have stratospheric IQ scores.
8
Some of my smartest kids weren't doing so well.
9
And that got me thinking.
10
The kinds of things you need to learn in seventh grade math, sure, they're hard, ratios, decimals, the area of a parallelogram,
11
but these concepts are not impossible.
12
And I was firmly convinced that every one of my students could learn the material if they worked hard and long enough.
13
After several more years of teaching, I came to the conclusion that what we need in education
14
is a much better understanding of students and learning from a motivational perspective, from a psychological perspective.
15
In education, the one thing we know how to measure best is IQ.
16
But what if doing well in school and in life depends on much more than your ability to learn quickly and easily?
17
So I left the classroom, and I went to graduate school to become a psychologist.
18
I started studying kids and adults in all kinds of super challenging settings.
19
And in every study, my question was, who is successful here and why?
20
My research team and I went to West Point Military Academy.
21
We tried to predict which cadets would stay in military training and which would drop out.
22
We went to the National Spelling Bee and tried to predict which children would advance farthest in competition.
23
We studied rookie teachers working in really tough neighborhoods, asking which teachers are still going to be here in teaching by the end of the school year.
24
And of those, who will be the most effective at improving learning outcomes for their students?
25
We partnered with private companies, asking which of these salespeople is going to keep their jobs, and who's going to earn the most money.
26
In all those very different contexts, one characteristic emerged as a significant predictor of success.
27
And it wasn't social intelligence, it wasn't good looks, physical health, and it wasn't IQ.
28
It was grit.
29
Grit is passion and perseverance for very long-term goals.
30
Grit is having stamina.
31
Grit is sticking with your future, day in, day out, not just for the week, not just for the month,
32
but for years, and working really hard to make that future a reality.
33
Grit is living life like it's a marathon, not a sprint.
34
A few years ago, I started studying grit in the Chicago public schools.
35
I asked thousands of high school juniors to take grit questionnaires, and then waited around more than a year to see who would graduate.
36
It turns out that grittier kids were significantly more likely to graduate,
37
even when I matched them on every characteristic I could measure, things like family income, standardized achievement test scores,
38
even how safe kids felt when they were at school.
39
So it's not just at West Point or the National Spelling Bee that grit matters.
40
It's also in school, especially for kids at risk for dropping out.
41
To me, the most shocking thing about grit is how little we know, how little science knows about building it.
42
Every day, parents and teachers ask me, how do I build grit in kids?
43
What do I do to teach kids a solid work ethic?
44
How do I keep them motivated for the long run?
45
The honest answer is, I don't know.
46
What I do know is that talent doesn't make you gritty.
47
Our data show very clearly that there are many talented individuals who simply do not follow through on their commitments.
48
In fact, in our data, grit is usually unrelated or even inversely related to measures of talent.
49
So far, the best idea I've heard about building grit in kids is something called growth mindset.
50
This is an idea developed at Stanford University by Carol Dweck, and it is the belief that the ability to learn is not fixed,
51
that it can change with your effort.
52
Dr. Dweck has shown that when kids read and learn about the brain
53
and how it changes and grows in response to challenge,
54
they're much more likely to persevere when they fail because they don't believe that failure is a permanent condition.
55
So growth mindset is a great idea for building grit, but we need more.
56
And that's where I'm going to end my remarks because that's where we are.
57
That's the work that stands before us.
58
We need to take our best ideas, our strongest intuitions, and we need to test them.
59
We need to measure whether we've been successful and we have to be willing to fail, to be wrong, to start over again with lessons learned.
60
In other words, we need to be gritty about getting our kids grittier.
61
Thank you.

Por que praticar a fala com este vídeo?

A prática de falar usando vídeos, como o TED Talk de Angela Lee Duckworth, é uma excelente maneira de melhorar suas habilidades de comunicação em inglês. Ao ouvir a oradora, você é exposto a uma variedade de vocabulários e expressões, bem como a um ritmo natural da língua. Isso é fundamental para o aprendizado, pois permite que você compreenda como a língua é realmente usada na conversação. Além disso, ao utilizar técnicas como o shadow speak, você pode repetir as falas e assimilar a pronúncia e entonação, o que contribui significativamente para uma fala mais fluente e confiante.

Gramática e Expressões em Contexto

Durante o discurso, a oradora usa várias estruturas que são cruciais para compreender melhor o inglês. Aqui estão algumas delas:

  • “What struck me was…” - Esta é uma construção que expressa uma revelação ou percepção pessoal.
  • “It turns out that…” - Uma maneira de introduzir uma conclusão ou descoberta importante sobre um assunto.
  • “It wasn’t just… it was also…” - Estrutura que ajuda a comparar e contrastar ideias, ampliando a clareza nas explicações.
  • “What I do know is that…” - Uma introdução que enfatiza o que ela tem certeza sobre um assunto, trazendo confiança à informação que se segue.

Essas expressões não apenas ajudam na construção de frases, mas também são úteis para a prática de aprender inglês com youtube, já que refletem a linguagem cotidiana.

Armadilhas Comuns de Pronúncia

Ao repetir o discurso, preste atenção em algumas palavras e frases que podem ser desafiadoras para pronunciar corretamente:

  • “Grit” - Esta palavra é fundamental no discurso, e a pronúncia correta é vital para transmitir seu significado. A sonoridade com o som /ɡrɪt/ pode ser difícil para alguns falantes não nativos.
  • “Stamina” - Outra palavra que possui uma sonoridade distinta, e a ênfase no segundo 'a' é importante: /ˈstæmɪnə/.
  • “Perseverance” - Longa e complexa, a pronúncia correta é essencial: /ˌpɜːrsəˈvɪərəns/.

Essas palavras são exemplos perfeitos para praticar o shadowing em inglês, ajudando a aperfeiçoar sua pronúncia e entonação em contextos sofisticados.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
