1
There is a growing feeling today that something is wrong with our system of education.
2
But what is it?
3
Well, we send our children to school to prepare them for the real world,
4
which is changing very, very fast.
5
But our schools haven't changed much for hundreds of years.
6
In fact, thought leaders from around the world agree
7
that the current system of education was designed in the industrial age mainly to churn out factory workers.
8
And this industrial age mentality of mass production and mass control still runs deep in schools.
9
Industrial age values.
10
We educate children by batches and govern their lives by ringing bells.
11
All day long students do nothing but follow instructions.
12
Sit down.
13
Take out your books.
14
Turn to page 40.
15
Solve problem number 3.
16
Stop talking.
17
At school, you're awarded for doing exactly what you are told.
18
These are industrial age values that were really important for factory workers.
19
Their success depended on following instructions and doing exactly what they were told.
20
But in today's world, how far can you get by simply following instructions?
21
The modern world values people who can be creative,
22
who can communicate their ideas and collaborate with others.
23
But our children don't get a chance to develop such skills in a system that's based on industrial age values.
24
Lack of autonomy and control At school,
25
our children experience a complete lack of autonomy and control.
26
Every minute of a child's life is tightly controlled by the system.
27
But in today's world, if you're doing important work,
28
then you're managing your own time.
29
You're making your own decisions regarding what to do and when to do it.
30
But life at school looks very different.
31
The system is sending a dangerous message to our children that they are not in charge of their own lives.
32
They just have to follow whatever is laid down instead of taking charge and making the most of their lives.
33
Experts believe autonomy is incredibly important for children.
34
It's no wonder then that our children are bored and demotivated by school.
35
Can you imagine how you would feel if you were told exactly what to do for every minute of your life?
36
inauthentic learning.
37
Most of the learning that happens in schools today is not authentic because it relies on memorization and rote learning.
38
The system defines a generic set of knowledge that all children must know
39
and then every few months we measure how much has been retained by administering exams.
40
We know that such learning is not authentic because most of it is gone the day after the exam.
41
Learning can be much deeper and more authentic.
42
It can be so much more than just memorization and retention.
43
But that's the only thing we measure,
44
and test scores are the only thing we value.
45
This has created an extremely unhealthy culture for students, parents and teachers.
46
Children are going through endless hours of tuitions,
47
staying up all night memorizing useless facts that they will forget very soon.
48
No room for passions and interests.
49
We have an extremely standardized system where each child must learn
50
the same thing at the same time in the same way as everyone else.
51
This doesn't respect the basic fact of being human,
52
that each of us is unique and different in our own way.
53
We all have different passions and interests.
54
And the key to fulfilment in life is to find your passion.
55
But do the schools of today help our children find and develop their passion?
56
There seems to be no room in the current education system for the most important questions in a child's life.
57
What am I good at?
58
What do I want to do in life?
59
How do I fit into this world?
60
The system doesn't seem to care.
61
There are so many greatly talented people who failed in the traditional school system.
62
Fortunately, they were able to overcome these failures, but not everyone can.
63
We have no measure for how much talent,
64
how much potential goes unrecognized in the current system.
65
Differences in how we learn.
66
Each of us is also different in how we learn,
67
in how much time we take to learn something,
68
and what tools and resources work best for us.
69
But the system has no room for such differences.
70
So if you're a bit slow in learning something,
71
you are considered a failure.
72
When all you needed was a bit more time to catch up.
73
Lecturing.
74
In the current system, children are lectured for more than five hours a day.
75
But there are a few big problems with lecturing.
76
Sal Khan from Khan Academy calls lecturing a fundamentally dehumanizing experience.
77
30 kids with fingers on their lips not allowed to interact with each other.
78
Also, in any given classroom,
79
different students are at different levels of understanding.
80
Now, whatever the teacher does,
81
there are bound to be students who are either bored because they are ahead or confused because they are behind.
82
Because of the internet and digital media,
83
our children have at their fingertips all the information in the world.
84
technology has made it possible for anyone to learn anything.
85
But for fear of losing control,
86
the system is not leveraging these incredible resources.
87
Our system of education, which evolved in the industrial age,
88
has become outdated and ineffective.
89
If we want to prepare our children for the modern world,
90
if we want learning to be effective and engaging,
91
then there's no doubt that we need to fundamentally change our system of education.

当今社会，对教育体系的质疑日益上升，许多人感到这种体系存在一定的问题。教育的目的本是为孩子们准备进入瞬息万变的现实世界，但我们的学校却已经好几个世纪没有发生实质性的变化。许多意见领袖一致认为，现行教育体系的设计源自工业时代，主要目的是培养工厂工人。这种工业时代的思维方式依然在学校中根深蒂固，缺乏创造性与自主性。

- 选择合适材料：选择该视频内容作为练习材料，这里讨论的教育问题非常适合引发思考和讨论。
- 分段播放：将视频分为几个小段落，方便集中注意力与记忆。每次观看一小段，跟读其中的对话。
- 模仿发音：专注于模仿说话者的语调、重音和语速，努力做到与视频中的说话者相同，提升你的英语口语练习。
- 重复练习：可以反复播放每段，直到你能够流利地跟随说话者的节奏。
- 检查并纠正：在每次练习结束后，尝试用自己理解的方式复述所学内容，检测自己的发音和表达是否准确。
通过这种方式，运用影子跟读的方法，你将能有效提升英语口语练习的能力，并增强对教育相关话题的理解。尽量多运用这种shadow speak技术，不仅有助于提高英语发音，还有利于拓展你的语言表达能力。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
