1
Hello and welcome.
2
We have a very special SGMD today from New York City in partnership with the Clinton Global Initiative.
3
And today we're talking about the science of success, investing in babies minds.
4
Let me just tell you,
5
there's something a little intimidating about doing a panel on intelligence.
6
It's very hard to look good,
7
I think, especially when you meet our guests in just a moment.
8
But before I introduce them,
9
I want you all to think for about a couple of points.
10
What is intelligence?
11
What is the value of intelligence?
12
And how do we ensure that every child out there can reach their full potential?
13
I'm a neurosurgeon and I'm fascinated with what I think is the most complex biological system in the world.
14
So let's just take a moment to appreciate it.
15
By the time a human embryo is five weeks old,
16
it is just the size of an apple seed.
17
But the brain has already begun to grow.
18
By eight weeks the basic structure of the brain and central nervous system are in place.
19
The neural networks are spreading out,
20
and even now the nerve signals are traveling more than 150 miles an hour.
21
At birth, nearly all 100 billion neurons of the human brain are already in place,
22
but the brain only weighs about 25% of what it will later on.
23
It's about to embark on its fastest growing period,
24
quadrupling in size by the time a child finishes preschool.
25
By age six, the brain is 90% of its adult size.
26
During that burst of growth,
27
700 new neural connections are formed every second as we gain the capacity to smile around two months,
28
to talk usually around a year,
29
and to dress ourselves, around the age of three.
30
In those early years, in fact throughout our lives,
31
the brain changes through experience,
32
learning to speak, taking those first steps,
33
understanding colors and shapes, forming novel thoughts.
34
But as certain neurons are used more frequently,
35
other unused neurons go away.
36
It's a process called pruning and almost anything can shape us in those baby and toddler years.
37
First words, first ice cream,
38
first TV show, first argument, for better or worse.
39
And here with me now, Dr. Rosemary Trullio.
40
She's the Vice President of Education and Research for the Children's Television Workshop.
41
Among other things, that means she's responsible for developing the curriculum that you see on Sesame Street.
42
Also, Dr. Nadine Burke Harris,
43
she's a pediatrician from Oakland,
44
California, where she's founded the Center for Youth Wellness, which she runs.
45
She's also an expert advisor to Too Small to Fail,
46
an initiative which was launched by Mrs. Clinton
47
and the Clinton Foundation to improve the well-being of kids from birth to age five.
48
And I think you may recognize the woman right here to my left.
49
Hi, Sanjay.
50
Back about 40 years ago,
51
I think the book was called Beyond the Best Interests of the Child.
52
Ah, you've done your homework.
53
Yes.
54
40 years ago, you were about 10 years old.
55
Yeah, I was.
56
I was.
57
A very precocious fifth grader.
58
Yes.
59
But, you know, it's interesting because we went back and looked at some of that research.
60
And when you talk about educational achievements,
61
we've certainly made progress in some areas.
62
But over 40 years, I think most people agree,
63
not nearly as much as we would have wanted as a country.
64
Do you point to any particular things and say,
65
here's where we sort of missed the boat?
66
I think a couple of things,
67
and in no particular order.
68
I think that life was not as fast-paced or as stressful in many,
69
many ways 40 years ago,
70
and certainly even before that.
71
Yes, were there problems?
72
Did our parents and grandparents face a lot of difficulties?
73
Absolutely.
74
But income has stagnated people's economic futures don't seem as predictable and stable as they did perhaps to a prior generation.
75
And that kind of stress and anxiety does affect how you interact with your children,
76
and particularly your youngest children.
77
I think also with the increasing ubiquity of television and now with screens of all kinds in our homes,
78
I think too many people drew the wrong conclusion that,
79
yes, talking, teaching your children words,
80
singing to them, reading to them,
81
all of that is great,
82
but that people are talking on TV.
83
So if we put them there or if we give them,
84
you know, access to a computer or an iPad or whatever,
85
you know, they're going to get that too.
86
And what we now know from the brain research is that doesn't work that way.
87
It's the human interaction and reinforcement.
88
You talk a lot about adverse childhood experiences,
89
as I read in your paper.
90
Look, there are a lot of kids out there who have tremendously tough lives,
91
and they face a lot of adversity.
92
How do you stratify who is going to be able to rise through
93
that and maybe even be better because of it and those who are just going to be really harmed by it?
94
Yeah, so the term adverse childhood experiences comes from the seminal study
95
that was done by the CDC and Kaiser Permanente and
96
when they looked at 17 and a half thousand adults what they found was
97
that folks who had greater exposure to these adverse childhood experiences including abuse
98
and neglect or household dysfunction like parental mental illness or parental incarceration or domestic violence,
99
those folks had dramatically increased risk of chronic disease.
100
And when we look at individual susceptibility to that,
101
what the science shows us is that it's a combination between nature and nurture.
102
It has to do with our biology,
103
but it also has to do with the environment.
104
And frankly, we know that early detection makes a big difference.
105
And particularly when we're thinking about young children,
106
we know that children's exposure to adversity,
107
the earlier we intervene, the better the outcome.
108
Is it important, Secretary Clinton,
109
for two parents to be involved?
110
You wrote the book, It Takes a Village.
111
I mean, two parents, one parent.
112
Does it have to be a parent to provide some of these buffers that Dr. Burke Harris is talking about?
113
Well, I think as the doctor said,
114
there are other ways to provide that buffer.
115
You know, sometimes it is a grandparent,
116
sometimes it's an older sibling or an aunt or an uncle.
117
You know, every child, though,
118
needs a buffer, or as I like to say,
119
every child needs a champion.
120
And that champion has to,
121
you know, really invest in that child,
122
and to a certain extent,
123
buffer and protect that child from whatever the other stresses are.

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.
