  • And the second is academic ability, which has really come to dominate our view of intelligence,
  • 第二点,学术能力已经成为衡量好学生的主要标准,
  • because the universities designed the system in their image.
  • 这种标准是那些大学自己制定的。
  • If you think of it, the whole system of public education around the world is a protracted process of university entrance.
  • 只要你思考一下就会发现,整个教育体系,不论哪个国家的公共教育,都是一种按部就班的程序,最终目标是为了考入大学。
  • And the consequence is that many highly-talented, brilliant, creative people think they're not,
  • 造成的后果就是许多很有天才的有创造力的学生被钝化了,
  • because the thing they were good at at school wasn't valued, or was actually stigmatized.
  • 因为这些学生发现他们的专长在学校并不受重视甚至还受到蔑视。
  • And I think we can't afford to go on that way.
  • 我认为我们不能再这样扼杀孩子们的天才了。
  • In the next 30 years, according to UNESCO, more people worldwide will be graduating through education than since the beginning of history.
  • 根据联合国教科文组织的统计,今后30年全世界毕业的学生将超过过去的总和。
  • More people, and it's the combination of all the things we've talked about
  • 这就是人口增长造成的,人口增长关系到我们谈论的许多话题,
  • technology and its transformation effect on work, and demography and the huge explosion in population.
  • 包括技术和技术变革对生产力的影响、人口统计学及人口爆炸。
  • Suddenly, degrees aren't worth anything. Isn't that true?
  • 很快,文凭就不再有含金量了。是这样吧?
  • When I was a student, if you had a degree, you had a job.
  • 我上学那会儿,有文凭就有工作。
  • If you didn't have a job, it's because you didn't want one. And I didn't want one, frankly.
  • 那时候如果你没工作,那是因为你不想找。说实话,我那时候就是这样。
  • But now kids with degrees are often heading home to carry on playing video games,
  • 但现在的状况是,孩子们有文凭却经常呆在家里打电脑游戏,
  • because you need an MA where the previous job required a BA, and now you need a PhD for the other.
  • 因为以前只要学士学位的工作岗位,现在需要硕士学位,现在还没毕业的孩子将来就得有个博士学位才好找工作。
  • It's a process of academic inflation. And it indicates the whole structure of education is shifting beneath our feet.
  • 这就是学术学位的通货膨胀。这是整个教育体系坍塌的前兆。
  • We need to radically rethink our view of intelligence.
  • 我们必须从根本上反思我们评价好学生的标准。
