ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Ken Robinson - Author/educator
Creativity expert Sir Ken Robinson challenges the way we're educating our children. He champions a radical rethink of our school systems, to cultivate creativity and acknowledge multiple types of intelligence.

Why you should listen

Why don't we get the best out of people? Sir Ken Robinson argues that it's because we've been educated to become good workers, rather than creative thinkers. Students with restless minds and bodies -- far from being cultivated for their energy and curiosity -- are ignored or even stigmatized, with terrible consequences. "We are educating people out of their creativity," Robinson says. It's a message with deep resonance. Robinson's TED Talk has been distributed widely around the Web since its release in June 2006. The most popular words framing blog posts on his talk? "Everyone should watch this."

A visionary cultural leader, Sir Ken led the British government's 1998 advisory committee on creative and cultural education, a massive inquiry into the significance of creativity in the educational system and the economy, and was knighted in 2003 for his achievements. His 2009 book, The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything, is a New York Times bestseller and has been translated into 21 languages. A 10th anniversary edition of his classic work on creativity and innovation, Out of Our Minds: Learning to be Creative, was published in 2011. His 2013 book, Finding Your Element: How to Discover Your Talents and Passions and Transform Your Life, is a practical guide that answers questions about finding your personal Element. In his latest book, Creative Schools: The Grassroots Revolution That’s Transforming Education, he argues for an end to our outmoded industrial educational system and proposes a highly personalized, organic approach that draws on today’s unprecedented technological and professional resources to engage all students.

Good morning. How are you?

4678
ಶುಭೋದಯ. ಚೆನ್ನಾಗಿದ್ದೀರಾ ? ಇದು ತುಂಬ ಅದ್ಭುತವಾಗಿದೆ, ಅಲ್ಲವೆ ?
00:28
(Laughter)
1
4702
1210
00:29
It's been great, hasn't it?
2
5936
2313
ನಾನಂತೂ ಈ ಎಲ್ಲದರಿಂದ ಮೂಕವಿಸ್ಮಿತನಾಗಿದ್ದೇನೆ.
00:32
I've been blown away by the whole thing.
3
8273
2456
00:34
In fact, I'm leaving.
4
10753
1492
ನಿಜ ಹೇಳಬೇಕು ಅಂದ್ರೆ, ನಾ ಹೊರಟೆ. (ನಗು)
00:36
(Laughter)
5
12269
5567
ಮೂರು ವಿಚಾರಧಾರೆಗಳು
00:42
There have been three themes
running through the conference
6
18015
3207
ಈ ಸಭೆಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಕಂಡುಬಂದಿದೆ.
00:45
which are relevant
to what I want to talk about.
7
21246
2507
ಇವುಗಳು ನನ್ನ ಈ ಭಾಷಣಕ್ಕೆ ಪ್ರಸಕ್ತವಾಗಿವೆ.
00:47
One is the extraordinary
evidence of human creativity
8
23777
4690
ಮೊದಲನೆಯದಾಗಿ, ಮಾನವನ ಕ್ರಿಯಾತ್ಮಕತೆಗೆ ಅದ್ಬುತವಾದ ಸಾಕ್ಷಿ
00:52
in all of the presentations that we've had
9
28491
2413
ನಾವು ಕೇಳಿದ ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಂದು ಭಾಷಣದಲ್ಲಿಯೂ
00:54
and in all of the people here.
10
30928
1801
ಹಾಗೂ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ನೆರೆದಿರುವ ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಬ್ಬ ವ್ಯಕಿಯಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ಇದು ಗೋಚರವಾಗುತ್ತಿದೆ. ಇದರ ವ್ಯವಿದ್ಯಥೆ
00:56
Just the variety of it
and the range of it.
11
32753
2651
ಹಾಗೂ ಇದರ ಪರಿಮಿತಿ ಅಪಾರ. ಎರಡನೆಯದಾಗಿ,
01:00
The second is
that it's put us in a place
12
36158
2143
ಇದರಿಂದಾಗಿ ಪರಿಸ್ಥಿತಿ ಹೇಗಾಗಿದೆಯೆಂದರೆ ಮುಂದೆ ಏನು ನಡಿಯಬಹುದು ನಮಗೆ ಹೊತ್ತಿಲ್ಲ,
01:02
where we have no idea
what's going to happen,
13
38325
2497
01:04
in terms of the future.
14
40846
1391
ಭವಿಷ್ಯತ್ ಕಾಲದ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ನಮಗೆ ಸ್ಪಷ್ಟ ಕಲ್ಪನೆ ಇಲ್ಲ.
01:06
No idea how this may play out.
15
42261
2715
ಹೇಗೆ ಇದು ರೂಪಗೊಳ್ಳುವುದೆಂದು.
01:09
I have an interest in education.
16
45000
1892
ನನಗೆ ಶಿಕ್ಷಣದ ವಿಚಾರದಲ್ಲಿ ಬಹಳ ಆಸಕ್ತಿ --
01:10
Actually, what I find is everybody
has an interest in education.
17
46916
4132
ವಾಸ್ತವವಾಗಿ, ನಾನು ಕಂಡ ಸಂಗತಿ ಏನಂದ್ರೆ ಶಿಕ್ಷಣದ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಎಲ್ಲರಿಗೂ ಆಸಕ್ತಿ ಇದೆ.
ನಿಮಗೆ ಇಲ್ಲವೇ ? ಇದು ನನಗೆ ಬಹಳ ಕುತೂಹಲಕಾರಿಯಾದ ಸಂಗತಿ.
01:15
Don't you?
18
51072
1138
01:16
I find this very interesting.
19
52234
1481
ನೀವು ಯಾವುದಾರು ಊಟದ ಔತಣಕ್ಕೆ ಹೋಗಿ,
01:17
If you're at a dinner party,
20
53739
1757
01:19
and you say you work in education --
21
55596
2262
ನಾನು ಶಿಕ್ಷಣದ ಕ್ಷೇತ್ರದಲ್ಲಿ ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡ್ತೀನಿ ಅಂತ ಹೇಳಿ --
01:21
Actually, you're not often
at dinner parties, frankly.
22
57882
2964
ವಾಸ್ತವವಾಗಿ, ನೀವು ಶಿಕ್ಷಣ ಕ್ಷೇತ್ರದಲ್ಲೇ ಇದ್ದರೆ, ಹೆಚ್ಚಿನಪಕ್ಷ ನೀವು ಯಾವ ಔತಣದಲ್ಲೂ ಇರಲ್ಲ.
01:24
(Laughter)
23
60870
3796
01:28
If you work in education,
you're not asked.
24
64690
2428
(ನಗು) ಇದ್ದರುನೂ ಯಾರು ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನ ಕೇಳಲ್ಲ.
01:31
(Laughter)
25
67142
3091
ನಾ ಕೇಳಿದರೂ ತಿರುಗಿ ನನ್ನನ್ನ ಯಾರು ಕೇಳಲ್ಲ, ಆಶ್ಚರ್ಯ. ಇದು ನನಗೆ ವಿಚಿತ್ರ ಅನ್ಸುತ್ತೆ.
01:34
And you're never asked back, curiously.
That's strange to me.
26
70257
3719
01:38
But if you are, and you say to somebody,
27
74000
2475
ಆದರೂ ಊಹಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳಿ, ನೀವು ಯಾರನ್ನೋ ಮಾತಾಡಿಸ್ತೀರಿ,
ಆಗ ಅವರು ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನ, "ನೀವು ಏನು ಮಾಡ್ತೀರಿ?" ಅಂಥ ಕೇಳ್ತಾರೆ
01:40
you know, they say, "What do you do?"
28
76499
1777
ಆಗ ನೀವು ಶಿಕ್ಷಣ ಕ್ಷೇತ್ರದಲ್ಲಿ ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡ್ತೀನಿ ಎಂದರೆ
01:42
and you say you work in education,
29
78300
1676
01:44
you can see the blood run from their face.
30
80000
2076
ಆಗ ಅವರ ಮುಖ ಹೇಗೆ ಕೋಪದಿಂದ ಕೆಂಪಿಡುತ್ತದೆಂದು ನೀವು ಕಾಣಬಹುದು. ಅವರ ಭಾವನೆ,
01:46
They're like, "Oh my God,"
you know, "Why me?"
31
82100
2280
"ಅಯ್ಯೋ ದೇವರೇ, ನಾನೇ ಯಾಕೆ ಸಿಕ್ಬಿದ್ದೆ ? ಇಡೀ ವಾರದಲ್ಲಿ ನನ್ನ ಒಂದು ಬಿಡುವಿನ ಸಂಜೆ." (ನಗು)
01:48
(Laughter)
32
84404
1637
01:50
"My one night out all week."
33
86065
1623
01:51
(Laughter)
34
87712
2610
ನೀವು ಅವರ ಓದಿನ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಕೇಳಿದಾಗ ಮಾತ್ರ
01:54
But if you ask about their education,
they pin you to the wall.
35
90346
3241
ಅವರು ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನ ಚೆನ್ನಾಗಿ ದಬಾಯಿಸ್ತಾರೆ. ಏಕಂದರೆ ಇದು, ಒಂದು ವಿಷಯ
01:57
Because it's one of those things
that goes deep with people, am I right?
36
93611
3467
ವಕ್ತಿಗಳ ಅಂತರಾಳವನ್ನು ಮುಟ್ಟುತ್ತದೆ, ನಿಜ ಅಲ್ವೆ ?
ಇದು ಮತ ಹಾಗೂ ಹಣಕಾಸು ಅಂತಹ ವಿಚಾರಗಳ ತರಹ.
02:01
Like religion, and money and other things.
37
97194
3341
ನನಗೆ ಶಿಕ್ಷಣದಲ್ಲಿ ಬಹಳ ಆಸಕ್ತಿ , ನನಗ್ ಅನ್ಸುತ್ತೆ ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಬ್ಬರಿಗೂ ಇದು ಅನ್ವಯಿಸುತ್ತೆ.
02:04
So I have a big interest in education,
and I think we all do.
38
100559
4352
ನಾವೆಲ್ಲರೂ ಇದರ ದೊಡ್ಡ ಪಾಲುದಾರರು,
02:08
We have a huge vested interest in it,
39
104935
1892
ಏಕಂದರೆ, ಶಿಕ್ಷಣವೆ
02:10
partly because it's education
that's meant to take us into this future
40
106851
3320
ನಮ್ಮನು ಅನಿರ್ದಿಷ್ಟ ಭವಿಷ್ಯದೆಡೆಗೆ ಕೊಂಡೊಯ್ಯಬೇಕು
02:14
that we can't grasp.
41
110195
1519
02:15
If you think of it,
children starting school this year
42
111873
3499
ನೀವು ಯೋಚಿಸಿ ನೋಡಿ, ಈ ವರ್ಷದಿಂದ ಶಾಲೆಗೆ ಹೋಗುವ ಮಕ್ಕಳು
೨೦೬೫ ರಲ್ಲಿ ನಿವೃತ್ತಿಯಾಗುತ್ತಾರೆ.
02:19
will be retiring in 2065.
43
115396
3524
02:24
Nobody has a clue,
44
120209
1634
ಕಳೆದ ನಾಲ್ಕು ದಿನಗಳಿಂದ ನಡೆದ ಪಾಂಡಿತ್ಯ ಪ್ರದರ್ಶನದ ನಂತರವೂ
02:25
despite all the expertise that's been
on parade for the past four days,
45
121867
3444
ಈ ಜಗತ್ತು ಮುಂದಿನ ಐದು ವರ್ಷಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಗಿರುತ್ತೆ
02:29
what the world will look like
in five years' time.
46
125450
2526
ಅಂಥ ಯಾರಿಗೂ ಊಹಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯವಿಲ್ಲ. ಆದರೆ ಮಕ್ಕಳನ್ನ
02:32
And yet we're meant
to be educating them for it.
47
128000
2294
ಈ ಭವಿಷ್ಯವನ್ನು ಎದುರಿಸಲು ಶಿಕ್ಷಿಸಬೇಕು. ನನಗೆ ಅನ್ಸುತ್ತೆ ಈ ಅನಿರ್ದಿಷ್ಟತೆ
02:34
So the unpredictability,
I think, is extraordinary.
48
130318
2550
ಅದ್ಬುಥವಾದದ್ದು .
02:36
And the third part of this
49
132892
1367
ಮೂರನೆಯದಾಗಿ,
02:38
is that we've all agreed, nonetheless,
50
134283
2037
ನಾವೆಲ್ಲರೂ ಒಪ್ಪುವಂತಹ ವಿಷಯ ಅಂದ್ರೆ
02:40
on the really extraordinary
capacities that children have --
51
136344
5305
ಮಕ್ಕಳ ಅದ್ಭುತವಾದ ಸಾಮರ್ಥ್ಯಗಳು --
02:45
their capacities for innovation.
52
141673
2334
ಆವಿಷ್ಕಾರಕ್ಕೆ ಬೇಕಾದ ಅವರ ಸಾಮರ್ಥ್ಯ. ನಿನ್ನೆ ರಾತ್ರಿ ನಾವು ನೋಡಿದ ಸಿರೀನಳು ಒಂದು ವಿಸ್ಮಯ
02:48
I mean, Sirena last night
was a marvel, wasn't she?
53
144031
2511
ಅಲ್ಲವೇ ? ಸುಮ್ಮನೆ ಅವಳು ಏನು ಮಾಡಬಹುದು ಅನ್ನುವಂತಹದ್ದು
02:50
Just seeing what she could do.
54
146566
1610
ಹಾಗೂ ಅವಳು ಅಸಾಧಾರಣವಾದವಳು, ಆದರೆ ಒಂದು ದ್ರಿಷ್ಟಿಕೊನದಲ್ಲಿ
02:52
And she's exceptional, but I think
she's not, so to speak,
55
148200
4776
02:57
exceptional in the whole of childhood.
56
153000
3956
ಮಕ್ಕಳೆಲ್ಲರನ್ನ ನೋಡಿದರೆ ಅಷ್ಟು ಅಸಾಧಾರಣ ಅಲ್ಲ ಅನ್ಸುತ್ತೆ.
ನಾವು ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕಾಣುವುದೆನಂದರೆ, ಇವಳಿಗೆ ಅಸಾಧಾರಣ ಸಂಕಲ್ಪ ಶಕ್ತಿ ಇದೆ
03:00
What you have there is a person
of extraordinary dedication
57
156980
2796
ಹಾಗೂ ಇವಳು ಒಂದು ಪ್ರತಿಭೆಯನ್ನ ಆರಿಸಿಕೊಂಡಿದ್ದಾಳೆ. ನನ್ನ ವಾದ ಏನಂದರೆ
03:03
who found a talent.
58
159800
1267
ಎಲ್ಲ ಮಕ್ಕಳಿಗೂ ಅಗಾಧವಾದ ಪ್ರತಿಭೆ ಇರುತ್ತದೆ.
03:05
And my contention is,
all kids have tremendous talents.
59
161091
2609
ಆದರೆ ನಾವು ಅದನ್ನ ಪೋಲು ಮಾಡ್ತೀವಿ, ಅದು ನಿರ್ದಾಕ್ಷಿಣ್ಯವಾಗಿ.
03:07
And we squander them, pretty ruthlessly.
60
163800
1976
ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ನಾನು ಶಿಕ್ಷಣದ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಮಾತಾಡಲು ಬಯಸ್ತೀನಿ ಮತ್ತು
03:09
So I want to talk about education
61
165800
2176
03:12
and I want to talk about creativity.
62
168000
1872
ಕ್ರಿಯಾತ್ಮಕತೆಯ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಮಾತಾಡಲು ಇಚ್ಛೆ ಪಡ್ತೀನಿ. ನನ್ನ ಅಭಿಪ್ರಾಯ ಏನಂದ್ರೆ
03:13
My contention is that creativity now
is as important in education as literacy,
63
169896
6019
ಕ್ರಿಯತ್ಮಕತೆಗೆ ಈಗ ಮುಖ್ಯ ಸ್ಥಾನ ಇದೆ ಹೇಗೆ ಸಾಕ್ಷರತೆಗೆ ಇದಿಯೋ ಹಾಗೆ,
ಮತ್ತು ನಾವು ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ಅಷ್ಟೇ ಮಹತ್ವದ ಸ್ಥಾನ ಕೊಡಬೇಕು.
03:19
and we should treat it
with the same status.
64
175939
2864
(ಚಪ್ಪಾಳೆ) ಧನ್ಯವಾದಗಳು. ಅಷ್ಟೇ, ಅಲ್ಲಿಗೆ ಮುಗಿತು.
03:22
(Applause) Thank you.
65
178827
1971
03:24
(Applause)
66
180822
4345
03:29
That was it, by the way.
67
185485
1259
ನಿಮ್ಮೆಲ್ಲರಿಗೂ ಧನ್ಯವಾದಗಳು. (ನಗು). ಇನ್ನು ೧೫ ನಿಮಿಷಗಳು ಉಳಿಯಿತು.
03:30
Thank you very much.
68
186768
1003
03:31
(Laughter)
69
187795
2115
03:33
So, 15 minutes left.
70
189934
1677
ನಾನು ಹುಟ್ಟಿದೆ -- ಇಲ್ಲ (ನಗು)
03:35
(Laughter)
71
191635
2936
03:38
Well, I was born... no.
72
194595
1892
03:40
(Laughter)
73
196511
3032
ನಾನು ಈಚೆಗೆ ಒಂದು ಮಹತ್ತರವಾದ ಕಥೆ ಕೇಳ್ದೆ -- ಅದನ್ನ ಹೇಳೋಕ್ಕೆ ನನಗೆ ತುಂಬಾ ಇಷ್ಟ --
03:43
I heard a great story recently
-- I love telling it --
74
199567
2745
ಒಂದು ಚಿಕ್ಕ ಹುಡುಗಿಯ ಬಗ್ಗೆ . ಅವಳು ಚಿತ್ರ ಬಿಡಿಸುವ ತರಗತಿಯಲ್ಲಿದ್ದಳು. ಅವಳಿಗೆ ಆರು ವರ್ಷ.
03:46
of a little girl
who was in a drawing lesson.
75
202336
2715
ಮತ್ತೆ ಅವಳು ಹಿಂದೆ ಚಿತ್ರ ಬಿಡಿಸುತ್ತ ಕುಳಿತಿದ್ಲು ,
03:49
She was six, and she was
at the back, drawing,
76
205075
2135
ಅವಳ ಶಿಕ್ಷಕಿ ಹೇಳ್ತಿದ್ರು ಈ ಹುಡುಗಿ ಯಾವತ್ತೂ ಗಮನವಿಟ್ಟು
03:51
and the teacher said this girl
hardly ever paid attention,
77
207234
2800
ಪಾಠ ಕೇಳ್ತಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಆದರೆ ಈ ಚಿತ್ರ ಬಿಡಿಸುವ ತರಗತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾತ್ರ ಗಂಭೀರವಾಗಿ ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡ್ತಿದ್ಲು .
03:54
and in this drawing lesson, she did.
78
210058
1786
03:55
The teacher was fascinated.
79
211868
1340
ಅಚ್ಚರಿಗೊಂಡ ಶಿಕ್ಷಕಿ ಇವಳ ಹತ್ತಿರ ಹೋಗಿ
03:57
She went over to her,
and she said, "What are you drawing?"
80
213232
2762
"ಯಾವ ಚಿತ್ರ ಬಿಡಿಸ್ತಿದಿಯ ?" ಎಂದು ಕೇಳಿದ್ರು
04:00
And the girl said, "I'm
drawing a picture of God."
81
216018
2491
"ನಾನು ದೇವರ ಚಿತ್ರ ಬಿಡಿಸ್ತಿದೀನಿ" ಎಂದು ಉತ್ತರಿಸಿದಳು ಅ ಹುಡುಗಿ
04:03
And the teacher said, "But nobody
knows what God looks like."
82
219642
3318
ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ಶಿಕ್ಷಕಿ ಹೇಳಿದ್ರು, "ಯಾರಿಗೂ ದೇವರು ಹೇಗಿದ್ದಾನೆ ಅಂತ ಗೊತಿಲ್ವಲ್ಲ."
04:06
And the girl said,
"They will, in a minute."
83
222984
2088
ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ಹುಡುಗಿ ಹೇಳಿದಳು, "ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ನಿಮಿಷದಲ್ಲಿ ಎಲ್ಲರಗೂ ತಿಳಿಯುತ್ತೆ."
04:09
(Laughter)
84
225096
6782
(ನಗು)
ಇಂಗ್ಲೆಂಡಿನಲ್ಲಿ ನನ್ನ ಮಗನಿಗೆ ನಾಲ್ಕು ವರ್ಷವಾಗಿದ್ದಾಗ --
04:20
When my son was four in England --
85
236662
2267
ವಾಸ್ತವವಾಗಿ ಎಲ್ಲ ಕಡೆಯೂ ಅವನಿಗೆ ನಾಲ್ಕೇ ವರ್ಷ, (ನಗು)
04:23
Actually, he was four
everywhere, to be honest.
86
239413
2191
ಗಂಭೀರವಾಗಿ ಹೇಳ್ಬೇಕು ಅಂದ್ರೆ, ಅವನಿಗೆ ನಾಲ್ಕು ವರ್ಷ ಆಗ.
04:25
(Laughter)
87
241628
1667
04:27
If we're being strict about it,
wherever he went, he was four that year.
88
243404
3387
ಅವನು "ನೇಟಿವಿಟಿ" ಅನ್ನುವ ನಾಟಕದಲ್ಲಿದ್ದ.
04:30
He was in the Nativity play.
Do you remember the story?
89
246815
2638
ನಿಮಗೆ ಇದರ ಕಥೆ ಜ್ಞಾಪಕ ಇದೆಯೇ ? ಇಲ್ಲ , ಇದು ತುಂಬಾ ದೊಡ್ಡದಾಗಿತ್ತು.
04:33
(Laughter)
90
249477
1219
04:34
No, it was big, it was a big story.
91
250720
1827
ಇದು ತುಂಬಾ ದೊಡ್ಡ ಕಥೆ. ಇದರ ಎರಡನೆಯ ಕಂತಲ್ಲಿ ಮೆಲ್ ಗಿಬ್ಸನ್ ಮಾಡಿದಾರೆ.
04:36
Mel Gibson did the sequel,
you may have seen it.
92
252571
2305
ಇದನ್ನ ನೀವು ನೋಡಿರಬಹುದು: "ನೇಟಿವಿಟಿ ೨". ಆದರೆ ಜೇಮ್ಸ್ ಗೆ ಜೋಸೆಫ್ ಪಾತ್ರ ಸಿಕ್ಕಿತ್ತು.
04:38
(Laughter)
93
254900
1261
04:40
"Nativity II."
94
256185
1310
04:41
But James got the part of Joseph,
which we were thrilled about.
95
257519
4135
ಇದು ನಮ್ಮೆಲ್ಲರಿಗೆ ರೋಮಾಂಚಕ ಸಂಗತಿಯಾಗಿತ್ತು.
04:45
We considered this to be
one of the lead parts.
96
261678
2537
ಇದನ್ನು ನಾಟಕಾದ ಪ್ರಮುಖ ಪಾತ್ರವೆಂದು ಪರಿಗಣಿಸಿದ್ದೆವು.
ನಮ್ಮ ಏಜಂಟರು ಟಿ- ಷರಟುಗಳನ್ನು ಧರಿಸಿ ಇಡೀ ಜಾಗವನ್ನು ಮುತ್ತಿದ್ದರು.
04:48
We had the place crammed
full of agents in T-shirts:
97
264239
2477
"ಜೇಮ್ಸ್ ರಾಬಿನ್ಸನ್ ಅವರೇ ಜೋಸೆಫ್!" (ನಗು)
04:50
"James Robinson IS Joseph!" (Laughter)
98
266740
2236
04:53
He didn't have to speak,
99
269000
1607
ಅವರು ಮಾತಾಡೋ ಗೋಜಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ, ಆದರೆ ನಿಮಗೆ ಸನ್ನಿವೇಶ ಗೊತ್ತು
04:54
but you know the bit
where the three kings come in?
100
270631
2438
ಮೂರು ಜನ ರಾಜರು ಉಡುಗರೆಗಳನ್ನು ಹೊತ್ತು ಒಳಗೆ ಬರ್ತಾರೆ.
04:57
They come in bearing gifts,
gold, frankincense and myrrh.
101
273093
2731
ಮತ್ತು ಚಿನ್ನ, ಫ್ರಾಂಕಿನ್ಸೆನ್ಸ್ ಹಾಗೂ ಮಿರ್ಹ್ (ಸುಗಂಧ ದ್ರವ್ಯಗಳು) ಇವುಗಳನ್ನು ತರುತ್ತಾರೆ.
04:59
This really happened.
102
275848
1114
ನಿಜವಾಗಿ ನಡೆದ ಸಂಗತಿ ಇದು. ನಾವು ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಕುಳಿತಿದ್ದೆವು
05:00
We were sitting there and I think
they just went out of sequence,
103
276986
3090
ಮತ್ತೆ ನನಗೆ ಅನ್ಸುತ್ತೆ ಅವರು ದೃಶ್ಯಾವಳಿಯ ಅನುಕ್ರಮವನ್ನು ತಪ್ಪಿದರು,
ಯಾಕಂದ್ರೆ ನಾವು ತರುವಾಯ ನಮ್ಮ ಚಿಕ್ಕ ಹುಡುಗನ ಹತ್ತಿರ ಕೇಳಿದೆವು,
05:04
because we talked to the little boy
afterward and we said,
104
280100
2776
"ನಿನಗೆ ಸರಿಯನ್ನಿಸ್ತ ?" ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ಅವನು, "ಹೌದು, ಯಾಕೆ, ಅದು ತಪ್ಪಾಗಿತ್ತಾ?"
05:06
"You OK with that?" And he said,
"Yeah, why? Was that wrong?"
105
282900
2876
ಅವರು ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಬದಲಾವಣೆ ಮಾಡಿದ್ರು, ಅಷ್ಟೇ.
05:09
They just switched.
106
285800
1076
ಆ ದ್ರಿಶ್ಯದ ವಿವರ ಹೀಗೆ, ಮೂರು ಹುಡುಗರು ಬಂದರು,
05:10
The three boys came in,
107
286900
1176
ನಾಲ್ಕು ವರ್ಷದವರು, ತಲೆಮೇಲಿ ಟೀ-ಟವಲ್ಗಳನ್ನ ಹೊದೆದವರು,
05:12
four-year-olds with tea towels
on their heads,
108
288100
2187
ಮತ್ತು ಅವರು ಹೊತ್ತು ತಂದ ಡಬ್ಬಗಳನ್ನ ಕೆಳಗಿಟ್ಟು ,
05:14
and they put these boxes down,
109
290311
1491
05:15
and the first boy said,
"I bring you gold."
110
291826
2049
ಮೊದಲನೆಯ ಬಾಲಕ ಹೇಳಿದ, "ನಾನು ಚಿನ್ನವನ್ನು ತಂದಿದ್ದೇನೆ."
05:17
And the second boy said,
"I bring you myrrh."
111
293899
2138
ಎರಡನೆಯ ಬಾಲಕ ಹೇಳಿದ, "ನಾನು ಮಿರ್ಹವನ್ನು ತಂದಿದ್ದೇನೆ."
05:20
And the third boy said, "Frank sent this."
112
296061
2004
ಮೂರನೆಯ ಬಾಲಕ ಹೇಳಿದ, "ಫ್ರಾಂಕ್ ಇದನ್ನು ಕಳಿಸಿದ." (ನಗು)
05:22
(Laughter)
113
298089
2900
05:34
What these things have in common
is that kids will take a chance.
114
310711
3090
ಇವೆಲ್ಲ ಸಂಗತಿಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯವಾದ ಅಂಶವೇನಂದರೆ ಮಕ್ಕಳು [ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಏನು ? ]
ಅವರಿಗೆ ಗೊತ್ತಿಲ್ಲ ಅಂದ್ರೂ ಸಹ, ಅವರು ಹಿಂಜರಿಯಲ್ಲ.
05:37
If they don't know, they'll have a go.
115
313825
2608
ಸರಿ ಅಲ್ವೇ ? ಅವರು ತಪ್ಪು ಮಾಡೋಕೆ ಹೆದರೋದಿಲ್ಲ.
05:40
Am I right? They're not
frightened of being wrong.
116
316457
3537
ಇವಾಗ, ಕ್ರಿಯಾತ್ಮಕವಾಗಿರೋದು ಹಾಗೂ ತಪ್ಪು ಮಾಡೋದು ಒಂದೇ ಅಂತ ನಾ ಹೇಳ್ತಿಲ್ಲ.
05:44
I don't mean to say that being wrong
is the same thing as being creative.
117
320893
3507
ಆದರೆ ನಮಗೆ ಗೊತ್ತಿರೋದು ಏನಂದ್ರೆ,
05:48
What we do know is,
if you're not prepared to be wrong,
118
324886
3090
ನೀವು ತಪ್ಪು ಮಾಡೋಕೆ ಸಿದ್ದವಿಲ್ಲ ಅಂದ್ರೆ,
05:52
you'll never come up
with anything original --
119
328000
2367
ನೀವು ಸ್ವಂತವಾಗಿ ಏನೂ ಮಾಡೋಕ್ಕೆ ಆಗಲ್ಲ.
05:54
if you're not prepared to be wrong.
120
330391
2085
ನೀವು ತಪ್ಪು ಮಾಡೋಕೆ ಸಿದ್ದವಿಲ್ಲ ಅಂದ್ರೆ. ಮತ್ತೆ ದೊಡ್ದವರಾಗುವಷ್ಟರಲ್ಲಿ,
05:56
And by the time they get to be adults,
most kids have lost that capacity.
121
332877
4133
ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಬಹುಪಾಲಿಗೆ ಈ ಸಾಮರ್ಥ್ಯವನ್ನ ಕಳಕೊಂಡುಬಿಡ್ತಾರೆ.
ದೊಡ್ದವರಾಗ್ತಿದ್ದಾಗೆ ತಪ್ಪು ಮಾಡೋಕ್ಕೆ ಭಯ ಪಟ್ಕೊಳ್ತಾರೆ.
06:01
They have become
frightened of being wrong.
122
337406
2520
ನಾವು ನಮ್ಮ ಕಂಪನಿಗಳನ್ನ ಹೀಗೆ ನಡಿಸ್ತೀವಿ.
06:03
And we run our companies like this.
123
339950
1690
ನಾವು ತಪ್ಪುಗಳಿಗೆ ಕಳಂಕದ ಭಾವನೆ ಹಚ್ತೀವಿ . ಇವಾಗ ನಾವು
06:05
We stigmatize mistakes.
124
341664
1652
06:07
And we're now running
national education systems
125
343340
2302
ನಮ್ಮ ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರೀಯ ಶಿಕ್ಷಣ ಪದ್ದತಿಯನ್ನ ಹೀಗೆ ನಡಿಸ್ತಿದೀವಿ,
06:09
where mistakes are the worst
thing you can make.
126
345666
2346
ಇದರಲ್ಲಿ ತಪ್ಪುಗಳನ್ನ ಮಾಡುವುದೆಂದರೆ ಘೋರ ಅಪರಾಧ.
06:12
And the result is that
we are educating people
127
348700
3208
ಪರಿಣಾಮ ಏನಂದರೆ ನಾವು ವ್ಯಕ್ತಿಗಳನ್ನ ತಮ್ಮ ಕ್ರಿಯಾತ್ಮಕ ಸಾಮರ್ಥ್ಯವನ್ನ
06:15
out of their creative capacities.
128
351932
2291
ಬೆಳೆಸದ ಹಾಗೆ ಶಿಕ್ಷಿಸ್ತಿದೀವಿ. ಪಿಕಾಸ್ಸೋ ಮಹಾಶಯ ಒಮ್ಮೆ ಹೀಗೆ ನುಡಿದಿದ್ದ:
06:18
Picasso once said this, he said
that all children are born artists.
129
354247
4478
ಅವನು ಹೇಳಿದ್ದ ಎಲ್ಲ ಮಕ್ಕಳೂ ಹುಟ್ಟು ಕಲೆಗಾರರು.
06:22
The problem is to remain an artist
as we grow up.
130
358749
3222
ಸಮಸ್ಯೆ ಏನಂದರೆ ಅವರು ಬೆಳೆಯುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ಹಾಗೆ ಕಲಾವಿದರಾಗಿ ಉಳಿಯುವುದು. ನಾನು ಇದನ್ನ ಸಂಪೂರ್ಣವಾಗಿ ನಂಬುತ್ತೀನಿ:
06:25
I believe this passionately,
that we don't grow into creativity,
131
361995
3081
ಏನಂದ್ರೆ, ನಾವು ಬೆಳೆಯುತಿದ್ದ ಹಾಗೆ ಕ್ರಿಯಾತ್ಮಕತೆಯನ್ನು ಮೈಗೂಡಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವುದಿಲ್ಲ
ಅದರಿಂದ ದೂರವಾಗ್ತೀವಿ. ಸರಿಯಾಗಿ ಹೇಳೋದಾದ್ರೆ, ಶಿಕ್ಷಣದ ದೆಸೆಯಿಂದ ಇದು ನಡೆಯುತ್ತದೆ.
06:29
we grow out of it.
132
365100
1856
06:30
Or rather, we get educated out if it.
133
366980
1883
ಯಾಕೆ ಹೀಗೆ ?
06:33
So why is this?
134
369247
1473
ನಾನು ಐದು ವರ್ಷಗಳ ಹಿಂದೆ ಸ್ಟ್ರಾಟ್ಫೋರ್ಡ್-ಆನ್-ಅವೊನ್ ಅಲ್ಲಿ ವಾಸಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದೆ.
06:34
I lived in Stratford-on-Avon
until about five years ago.
135
370826
4081
ನಾವು ಸ್ಟ್ರಾಟ್ಫೋರ್ಡನಿಂದ ಲಾಸ್ ಎನ್ಜಿಲೀಸ್ ಗೆ ತೆರೆಳಿದೆವು.
06:38
In fact, we moved
from Stratford to Los Angeles.
136
374931
2253
ನೀವೇ ಊಹಿಸಬಹುದು ಎಂತಹ ಸಲೀಸಾದ ಪರಿವರ್ತನೆ ಅದು ಅಂತ.
06:41
So you can imagine
what a seamless transition that was.
137
377872
2664
(ನಗು)
06:44
(Laughter)
138
380560
1416
06:46
Actually, we lived in a place
called Snitterfield,
139
382000
2376
ನಾವು ಸ್ನಿಟ್ಟೆರ್-ಫೀಲ್ಡ್ ಎಂಬ ಜಾಗದಲ್ಲಿ ವಾಸಿದುತ್ತಿದ್ದೆವು,
ಸ್ಟ್ರಾಟ್ಫೋರ್ಡ್-ನ ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಆಚೆ,
06:48
just outside Stratford,
140
384400
1251
06:49
which is where
Shakespeare's father was born.
141
385675
2161
ಶೇಕ್ಸ್-ಸ್ಪಿಯರ್ ನ ತಂದೆ ಜನಿಸಿದ ಊರು. ಹೊಸದೊಂದು ಆಲೋಚನೆಗೆ ಸಿಲುಕಿದಿರ ನೀವು ? ನನಗೆ ಬಂದಿತ್ತು ಈ ಆಲೋಚನೆ.
06:52
Are you struck by a new thought? I was.
142
388082
2375
06:54
You don't think of Shakespeare
having a father, do you?
143
390481
2595
ಶೇಕ್ಸ್-ಸ್ಪಿಯರ್-ಗೆ ತಂದೆ ಇರುವ ವಿಷಯ ನೀವು ಯೋಚಿಸಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ, ಅಲ್ಲವೆ ?
ಏಕಂದ್ರೆ ನೀವು ಶೇಕ್ಸ್-ಸ್ಪಿಯರ್ ಮಗುವಾಗಿದ್ದ
06:57
Do you? Because you don't think
of Shakespeare being a child, do you?
144
393100
3876
ಅಂತಾನೂ ಯೋಚಿಸಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ, ಹೌದಲ್ಲವೆ ?
07:01
Shakespeare being seven?
145
397000
1567
ಶೇಕ್ಸ್-ಸ್ಪಿಯರ್ ಏಳು ವರ್ಷದ ಬಾಲಕ ? ನಾನಂತೂ ಆಲೋಚಿಸಿರಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಅವನು
07:02
I never thought of it.
146
398591
1249
07:03
I mean, he was seven at some point.
147
399864
1684
ಯಾವಾಗಲೋ ಒಂದು ಕಾಲದಲ್ಲಿ ಏಳು ವರ್ಷದ ಬಾಲಕನಾಗಿದ್ದ. ಅವನು
07:05
He was in somebody's
English class, wasn't he?
148
401572
2310
ಯಾರದೋ ಇಂಗ್ಲೀಷ್ ತರಗತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಇದ್ದ, ಅಲ್ಲವೆ ? [ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಏನು ]
07:07
(Laughter)
149
403906
6787
07:14
How annoying would that be?
150
410717
1329
(ನಗು) "ನೀನು ಇನ್ನು ಕಷ್ಟ ಪಡಬೇಕು." ಅವನ ತಂದೆ ಅವನ್ನು ಮಲಗು ಅಂತ ಹೇಳೋದು,
07:16
(Laughter)
151
412070
3000
07:23
"Must try harder."
152
419729
1035
07:24
(Laughter)
153
420788
3900
07:28
Being sent to bed by his dad, you know,
to Shakespeare, "Go to bed, now!
154
424712
3464
ಶೇಕ್ಸ್-ಸ್ಪಿಯರ್-ಗೆ, "ಮಲಗು ನೀನು ಈಗ,"
ವಿಲ್ಲಿಯಮ್ ಶೇಕ್ಸ್-ಸ್ಪಿಯರ್-ಗೆ, "ಪೆನ್ಸಿಲ್ ಕೆಳಗೆ ಹಾಕು
07:32
And put the pencil down."
155
428200
2428
ಹಾಗೆ ಸುತ್ತಿ-ಬಳಸಿ ಮಾತಾಡಬೇಡ. ಎಲ್ಲಾರ್ಗೂ ಕಷ್ಟ ಆಗುತ್ತೆ ಅರ್ಥವಾಗುವುದಕ್ಕೆ ."
07:34
(Laughter)
156
430652
1074
07:35
"And stop speaking like that."
157
431750
1555
07:37
(Laughter)
158
433329
3891
07:41
"It's confusing everybody."
159
437244
1324
(ನಗು)
07:42
(Laughter)
160
438592
5123
ನಾವು ಸ್ಟ್ರಾಟ್ಫೋರ್ಡನಿಂದ ಲಾಸ್ ಎನ್ಜಿಲೀಸ್ ಗೆ ತೆರೆಳಿದೆವು.
07:47
Anyway, we moved
from Stratford to Los Angeles,
161
443739
5338
ಮತ್ತು ನಮ್ಮ ಈ ಬದಲಾವಣೆಯ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಒಂದೆರಡು ಮಾತುಗಳನ್ನ ಆಡಲು ಇಷ್ಟ ಪಡ್ತೇನೆ
07:53
and I just want to say a word
about the transition.
162
449101
2441
ನನ್ನ ಮಗನಿಗೆ ಊರು ಬಿಟ್ಟು ಬರಲು ಇಷ್ಟ ಇರಲಿಲ್ಲ.
07:55
My son didn't want to come.
163
451566
1410
07:57
I've got two kids;
he's 21 now, my daughter's 16.
164
453000
2976
ನನಗೆ ಎರಡು ಮಕ್ಕಳು. ಅವನಿಗೆ ೨೧ ವರ್ಷ ಈಗ; ನನ್ನ ಮಗಳಿಗೆ ೧೬.
08:00
He didn't want to come to Los Angeles.
165
456000
2044
ಅವನಿಗೆ ಲಾಸ್ ಎನ್ಜಿಲೀಸ್ ಗೆ ಹೋಗಲು ಮನಸು ಇರಲಿಲ್ಲ. ಅವನಿಗೆ ಆಸೆ ಏನೋ ಇತ್ತು,
ಆದರೆ ಅವನಿಗೆ ಅಬ್ಬಳು ಗರ್ಲ್-ಫ್ರೆಂಡ್ ಇದ್ದಳು ಇಂಗ್ಲೆಂಡಿನಲ್ಲಿ. ಅವನ ಪ್ರಾಣದ ಪ್ರೇಯಸಿಯಾಗಿದ್ದಳು, ಸಾರಾ ಅವಳ ಹೆಸರು.
08:02
He loved it, but he had
a girlfriend in England.
166
458068
2956
08:05
This was the love of his life, Sarah.
167
461048
3603
ಒಂದು ತಿಂಗಳ ದೀರ್ಘ-ಕಾಲದಿಂದ ಅವಳ ಪರಿಚಯವಿತ್ತು.
08:08
He'd known her for a month.
168
464761
1375
[ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಏನು ? ]
08:10
(Laughter)
169
466160
1350
08:11
Mind you, they'd had
their fourth anniversary,
170
467534
2256
ಏಕಂದ್ರೆ ನೀವು ೧೬ ವರ್ಷಕ್ಕಿಂತ ದೊಡ್ದವರಾಗಿದ್ದರೆ ಇದು ಬಹಳ ದೀರ್ಘಾವಧಿ.
08:13
because it's a long time when you're 16.
171
469814
2939
ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ವಿಮಾನದಲ್ಲಿ ಬಹಳ ಬೇಸರ ಪಟ್ಕೊಂಡಿದ್ದ.
08:16
He was really upset on the plane,
172
472777
1661
ಮತ್ತೆ ಹೇಳಿದ, "ನನಗೆ ಸಾರಾ ಅಂತ ಹುಡುಗಿ ಎಲ್ಲೂ ಸಿಗದಿಲ್ಲ."
08:18
he said, "I'll never find
another girl like Sarah."
173
474462
2461
ಆದರೆ ನಾವು ಬಹಳ ಖುಷಿಯಾಗಿದ್ವಿ , ನಿಜವಾಗಲೂ,
08:20
And we were rather pleased
about that, frankly --
174
476947
2378
ಏಕಂದ್ರೆ ಅವಳೇ ನಾವು ದೇಶ ಬಿಟ್ಟು ಹೋಗಲು ಮುಖ್ಯ ಕಾರಣ.
08:23
(Laughter)
175
479349
2900
08:31
Because she was the main reason
we were leaving the country.
176
487395
2881
(ನಗು)
08:34
(Laughter)
177
490300
3000
ನೀವು ಅಮೇರಿಕಾಗೆ ಹೋದರೆ ಒಂದು ವಿಚಾರ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಗಮನಕ್ಕೆ ಬರುತ್ತದೆ
ನೀವು ಪ್ರಪಂಚದಲ್ಲಿ ಎಲ್ಲೇ ಹೋದರೂ ಇದು ಗಮನಕ್ಕೆ ಬರುತ್ತದೆ:
08:40
But something strikes you
when you move to America
178
496059
2342
ಜಗತ್ತಿನ ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಂದು ಶಿಕ್ಷಣ ಪದ್ದತಿಯಲ್ಲೂ ಒಂದೇ ವಿಧವಾದ ಪಠ್ಯಕ್ರಮ.
08:42
and travel around the world:
179
498425
1366
08:43
Every education system on Earth
has the same hierarchy of subjects.
180
499815
3378
ಎಲ್ಲದರಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ಒಂದೇ ಕ್ರಮ. ನೀವು ಎಲ್ಲೇ ಹೋಗಿ.
08:47
Every one. Doesn't matter where you go.
181
503537
1955
ನೀವು ಬೇರೆ ಇರಬಹುದು ಅಂದ್ಕೋಳ್ಬಹುದು, ಆದರೆ ಹಾಗೆ ಇಲ್ಲ.
08:49
You'd think it would be
otherwise, but it isn't.
182
505516
2270
ಮುಂಚೂಣಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಗಣಿತ ಮತ್ತು ಭಾಷೆಗಳು,
08:51
At the top are mathematics and languages,
183
507810
1966
ಆಮೇಲೆ ಸಮಾಜ ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರ, ಮತ್ತು ಕೆಳಗೆ ಕಲೆ.
08:53
then the humanities,
and at the bottom are the arts.
184
509800
2434
ಭೂಮಿಯ ಎಲ್ಲ ಕಡೆಯೂ ಅಷ್ಟೇ.
08:56
Everywhere on Earth.
185
512258
1118
ಹಾಗೂ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಶಿಕ್ಷಣ ಪದ್ದತಿಗಳಲ್ಲೂ ಇದೇ ರೀತಿ,
08:57
And in pretty much every system too,
there's a hierarchy within the arts.
186
513400
4095
ಕಲೆಯಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ಒಂದು ಕ್ರಮ ಉಂಟು.
09:01
Art and music are normally
given a higher status in schools
187
517519
2857
ಶಾಲೆಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಚಿತ್ರಕಲೆ ಹಾಗೂ ಸಂಗೀತಕ್ಕೆ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಪ್ರಾಮುಖ್ಯತೆ, ಆದ್ಯತೆ
ಆಮೇಲೆ ನಾಟಕ ಹಾಗೂ ನೃತ್ಯ. ಈ ಭೂಮಿಯ ಮೇಲೆ ಒಂದು ಶಿಕ್ಷಣ ಪದ್ದತಿಯೂ
09:04
than drama and dance.
188
520400
1167
09:05
There isn't an education
system on the planet
189
521591
2256
ಇಲ್ಲ, ಯಾವುದಲ್ಲಿ ನೃತ್ಯವನ್ನ ದಿನನಿತ್ಯವೂ ಮಕ್ಕಳಿಗೆ ಕಲಿಸುತ್ತಾರೆ
09:07
that teaches dance everyday to children
190
523871
2058
ಯಾವ ರೀತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಗಣಿತವನ್ನ ಕಲಿಸುತ್ತೀವೋ ಹಾಗೆ. ಯಾಕೆ ?
09:09
the way we teach them mathematics. Why?
191
525953
2047
ಯಾಕೆ ಇರಬಾರದು ? ನನಗೆ ಅನ್ಸುತ್ತೆ ಇದು (ನೃತ್ಯ) ಬಹಳ ಮುಖ್ಯ.
09:12
Why not? I think this is rather important.
192
528524
2701
ಗಣಿತವೂ ಅತಿಮುಖ್ಯ , ಆದರೆ ನೃತ್ಯವೂ ಅಷ್ಟೇ ಮುಖ್ಯ.
09:15
I think math is very
important, but so is dance.
193
531249
2303
ಮಕ್ಕಳನ್ನ ಬಿಟ್ಟರೆ ಯಾವಾಗಲೂ ನರ್ತಿಸ್ತಾರೆ, ನಾವೆಲ್ಲಾರೂ ಮಾಡ್ತೀವಿ.
09:17
Children dance all the time
if they're allowed to, we all do.
194
533576
2900
ನಮ್ಮೆಲ್ಲರಿಗೂ ದೇಹ ಇದೆ, ಅಲ್ಲವೇ ? [ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಏನು ?]
09:20
We all have bodies, don't we?
Did I miss a meeting?
195
536500
2476
09:23
(Laughter)
196
539000
3338
(ನಗು) ನಿಜವಾಗಿಲು, ಏನಾಗುತ್ತೆ ಅಂದ್ರೆ,
09:26
Truthfully, what happens is,
as children grow up,
197
542510
2335
ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಬೆಳಿತಿದ್ದ ಹಾಗೆ, ನಾವು ಅವರನ್ನ ಶಿಕ್ಷಿಸ್ತೀವಿ
09:28
we start to educate them progressively
from the waist up.
198
544869
2768
ಹೇಗೆಂದರೆ ಸೊಂಟದಿಂದ ಮೇಲಕ್ಕೆ . ಆಮೇಲೆ ನಾವು ಮೆದುಳಿನ ಮೇಲೆ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿನ ಗಮನವಹಿಸುತ್ತೀವಿ.
09:31
And then we focus on their heads.
199
547661
1625
ಅದೂ ಒಂದು ಭಾಗದಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾತ್ರ.
09:33
And slightly to one side.
200
549310
1490
ನೀವು ಶಿಕ್ಷಣವನ್ನು ಒಂದು ಅನ್ಯಗ್ರಹ ಜೀವಿಗೆ ಇರಬಹುದಾದ ದೃಷ್ಟಿಕೋನದಿಂದ ವೀಕ್ಷಿಸಿದರೆ,
09:35
If you were to visit
education, as an alien,
201
551319
2657
09:38
and say "What's it for, public education?"
202
554000
2976
ಹಾಗೂ "ಸಾರ್ವಜನಿಕ ಶಿಕ್ಷಣ ಪದ್ದತಿಯು ಯಾವ ಕಾರಣಕ್ಕೆ ಇದೆ ?" ಎಂದು ಕೇಳಿದರೆ,
09:41
I think you'd have to conclude,
if you look at the output,
203
557000
2776
ನನಗೆ ಅನ್ಸುತ್ತೆ ನೀವು ಈ ನಿರ್ಣಯಕ್ಕೆ ಬರಬೇಕಾಗುತ್ತದೆ -- ನೀವು ಇದರ (ಶಿಕ್ಷಣದ) ಉತ್ಪತ್ತಿಯನ್ನ ನೋಡಿದರೆ,
ಯಾರು ನಿಜವಾಗಿಲು ಯಶಸ್ವಿಗಳಾಗುತ್ತಾರೆ ಇದರಿಂದ,
09:43
who really succeeds by this,
204
559800
1376
ಯಾರು ಮಾಡಬೇಕಾದದ್ದನ್ನೆಲ್ಲಾನೂ ಮಾಡುತ್ತಾರೆ,
09:45
who does everything that they should,
205
561200
1776
09:47
who gets all the brownie
points, who are the winners --
206
563000
2731
ಯಾರಿಗೆ [ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಏನು?], ಯಾರು ನಿಜವಾದ ವಿಜೇತರು --
09:49
I think you'd have to conclude
the whole purpose of public education
207
565755
3339
ನನಗೆ ಅನ್ಸುತ್ತೆ ನೀವು ಈ ನಿರ್ಣಯಕ್ಕೆ ಬರಬೇಕಾಗುತ್ತದೆ -- ಸಾರ್ವಜನಿಕ ಶಿಕ್ಷಣ ಪದ್ದತಿಯ ಮೂಲ ಉದ್ದೇಶ
ವಿಶ್ವದ ಎಲ್ಲ ಭಾಗದಲ್ಲೂ
09:53
throughout the world
208
569118
1097
ಏನಂದರೆ ವಿಶ್ವವಿದ್ಯಾಲಯಗಳ ಪ್ರಾಧ್ಯಾಪರುಗಳನ್ನ ತಯಾರು ಮಾಡೋದು. ಅಲ್ಲವೇ ?
09:54
is to produce university professors.
209
570239
1953
09:56
Isn't it?
210
572216
1311
09:57
They're the people who come out the top.
211
573551
1983
ಅವರುಗಳೆ ಈ ಪದ್ದತಿಯ ಮುಂಚೂಣಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಬರ್ತಾರೆ.
09:59
And I used to be one, so there.
212
575558
2179
ಹಿಂದೆ ನೀನು ಒಬ್ಬ ಅಂತಹ ವ್ಯಕ್ತಿ ಆಗಿದ್ದೆ. (ನಗು)
10:01
(Laughter)
213
577761
2636
ವಿಶ್ವವಿದ್ಯಾಲಯಗಳ ಪ್ರಾಧ್ಯಾಪರುಗಳನ್ನ ನಾನು ಮೆಚ್ಚುತ್ತೀನಿ, ಆದರೆ
10:04
And I like university
professors, but you know,
214
580421
3101
10:07
we shouldn't hold them up
215
583546
1475
ಅವರನ್ನ ನಾವು ಮಾನವನ ಸಾಧನೆಯ ಶಿಖರಕ್ಕೆ ಸೇರಿಸಬಾರದು.
10:09
as the high-water mark
of all human achievement.
216
585045
2931
10:12
They're just a form of life,
217
588000
1976
ಅವರು ಒಂದು ತರಹದ ಜೀವದ ಪ್ರಕಾರ,
10:14
another form of life.
218
590000
1560
[ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಏನು?]. ಆದರೆ ಅವರು ಬಹಳ ಕುತೂಹಲಕಾರಿಯಾದ ಪ್ರಕಾರ,
10:15
But they're rather curious, and I say this
out of affection for them.
219
591584
3298
ಅವರ ಮೇಲಿನ ನನ್ನ ಆದರದಿಂದ ಹೀಗೆ ಹೇಳ್ತೀನಿ.
ನನ್ನ ಅನುಭವದಲ್ಲಿ ಕಂಡ ಪ್ರಾಧ್ಯಾಪಕರ ಒಂದು ಕುತೂಹಲಕಾರಿಯಾದ ಸಂಗತಿ
10:18
There's something curious
about professors in my experience --
220
594906
2970
ಎಲ್ಲರೂ ಅಲ್ಲ, ಆದರೆ ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯವಾಗಿ -- ಅವರುಗಳು ಮಾನಸಿಕ ಪ್ರಪಂಚದಲ್ಲಿ ಬದುಕುತ್ತಾರೆ
10:21
not all of them, but typically,
they live in their heads.
221
597900
2676
ಅವರ ಜೀವನ ಮೆದುಳಿಗೆ ಸೀಮಿತ, ಅದರಲ್ಲೂ ಒಂದು ಭಾಗದಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾತ್ರ.
10:24
They live up there,
and slightly to one side.
222
600600
2143
ಅವರು ಕಾಯರಹಿತರು, ಗೊತ್ತ, ಒಂದು ರೀತಿ ಅಕ್ಷರಸಹ ನಿಜ,
10:27
They're disembodied, you know,
in a kind of literal way.
223
603495
3374
ತಮ್ಮ ದೇಹವನ್ನು
10:30
They look upon their body as a form
of transport for their heads.
224
606893
3093
ಮಿದುಳಿಗೆ ಒಂದು ಮಾದರಿಯ ವಾಹನವಾಗಿ ಕಾಣುತ್ತಾರೆ, ಅಲ್ಲವೇ ?
10:34
(Laughter)
225
610010
6166
10:40
Don't they?
226
616200
1016
(ನಗು) ಅವರ ಮಿದುಳನ್ನ ಮೀಟಿಂಗ್-ಗಳಿಗೆ ಒಯ್ಯುವಂಥ ಮಾರ್ಗ.
10:41
It's a way of getting
their head to meetings.
227
617240
2222
10:43
(Laughter)
228
619486
5512
ನಿಮಗೆ ದೇಹ-ಬಾಹಿರ ಅನುಭವದ ನಿಜವಾದ ಸಾಕ್ಷಿ ಬೇಕೆಂದರೆ
10:49
If you want real evidence
of out-of-body experiences,
229
625022
3830
ನೀವು ಹಿರಿಯ ಶಿಕ್ಷಕರ ಕಾನ್ಫಾರೆನ್ಸೆಗೆ
10:52
get yourself along to a residential
conference of senior academics,
230
628876
3486
ಹೋಗಿ
ಹಾಗೂ ಕೊನೆಯ ದಿನ ರಾತ್ರಿ ನಡೆಯುವ ಡಿಸ್ಕೋಗೆ ಒಂದು ಭೇಟಿ ನೀಡಿ
10:56
and pop into the discotheque
on the final night.
231
632386
2243
10:58
(Laughter)
232
634653
2801
(ನಗು) ಅಲ್ಲಿ ನೀವು ನೋಡ್ತೀರಿ -- ದೊಡ್ಡವರಾದ ಪುರಷರು ಹಾಗೂ ಮಹಿಳೆಯರು
11:01
And there, you will see it.
233
637478
1356
11:02
Grown men and women
writhing uncontrollably, off the beat.
234
638858
4118
[ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಏನು]
11:07
(Laughter)
235
643000
2867
11:09
Waiting until it ends so they can
go home and write a paper about it.
236
645891
3325
11:13
(Laughter)
237
649240
1904
11:15
Our education system is predicated
on the idea of academic ability.
238
651168
3843
11:19
And there's a reason.
239
655035
1241
11:20
Around the world, there were
no public systems of education,
240
656300
3556
11:23
really, before the 19th century.
241
659880
2106
11:26
They all came into being
to meet the needs of industrialism.
242
662010
2957
11:29
So the hierarchy is rooted on two ideas.
243
665269
2163
11:31
Number one, that the most useful
subjects for work are at the top.
244
667456
4597
11:36
So you were
probably steered benignly away
245
672077
2031
11:38
from things at school when you
were a kid, things you liked,
246
674132
2934
11:41
on the grounds that you would
never get a job doing that. Is that right?
247
677090
3386
11:44
Don't do music, you're not
going to be a musician;
248
680500
2381
11:46
don't do art, you won't be an artist.
249
682905
1801
11:48
Benign advice -- now, profoundly mistaken.
250
684730
3420
11:52
The whole world
is engulfed in a revolution.
251
688174
2145
11:54
And the second is academic ability,
252
690343
2097
11:56
which has really come to dominate
our view of intelligence,
253
692464
2885
11:59
because the universities designed
the system in their image.
254
695373
2903
12:02
If you think of it, the whole system
of public education around the world
255
698300
3494
12:05
is a protracted process
of university entrance.
256
701818
2226
12:08
And the consequence
is that many highly-talented,
257
704068
2333
12:10
brilliant, creative
people think they're not,
258
706425
2435
12:12
because the thing
they were good at at school
259
708884
2138
12:15
wasn't valued,
or was actually stigmatized.
260
711046
2108
12:17
And I think we can't afford
to go on that way.
261
713383
2296
12:19
In the next 30 years, according to UNESCO,
262
715703
2464
12:22
more people worldwide will be graduating
263
718191
2810
12:25
through education
than since the beginning of history.
264
721025
2546
12:27
More people, and it's the combination
of all the things we've talked about --
265
723595
3681
12:31
technology and its transformation
effect on work, and demography
266
727300
3048
12:34
and the huge explosion in population.
267
730372
1804
12:36
Suddenly, degrees aren't worth anything.
268
732200
2865
12:39
Isn't that true?
269
735089
1380
12:40
When I was a student,
if you had a degree, you had a job.
270
736723
2753
12:43
If you didn't have a job,
it's because you didn't want one.
271
739500
2776
12:46
And I didn't want one, frankly. (Laughter)
272
742300
2676
12:49
But now kids with degrees
273
745000
4074
12:53
are often heading home
to carry on playing video games,
274
749098
3045
12:56
because you need an MA where
the previous job required a BA,
275
752167
3198
12:59
and now you need a PhD for the other.
276
755389
1787
13:01
It's a process of academic inflation.
277
757200
1776
13:03
And it indicates the whole
structure of education
278
759000
2376
13:05
is shifting beneath our feet.
279
761400
1433
13:06
We need to radically rethink
our view of intelligence.
280
762857
2620
13:09
We know three things about intelligence.
281
765501
1995
13:11
One, it's diverse.
282
767520
1227
13:12
We think about the world in all the ways
that we experience it.
283
768771
3005
13:15
We think visually, we think in sound,
we think kinesthetically.
284
771800
2976
13:18
We think in abstract terms,
we think in movement.
285
774800
2301
13:21
Secondly, intelligence is dynamic.
286
777246
1754
13:23
If you look at the interactions
of a human brain,
287
779587
2389
13:26
as we heard yesterday
from a number of presentations,
288
782000
2976
13:29
intelligence is wonderfully interactive.
289
785000
1976
13:31
The brain isn't divided into compartments.
290
787000
2238
13:33
In fact, creativity --
which I define as the process
291
789873
3103
13:37
of having original ideas
that have value --
292
793000
2325
13:39
more often than not comes about
through the interaction
293
795349
2652
13:42
of different disciplinary
ways of seeing things.
294
798025
3000
13:46
By the way, there's a shaft of nerves
that joins the two halves of the brain
295
802310
3666
13:50
called the corpus callosum.
296
806000
1491
13:51
It's thicker in women.
297
807515
1266
13:53
Following off from Helen yesterday,
298
809088
1741
13:54
this is probably why women
are better at multi-tasking.
299
810853
3123
13:58
Because you are, aren't you?
300
814000
1817
13:59
There's a raft of research,
but I know it from my personal life.
301
815841
3207
14:03
If my wife is cooking a meal at home --
which is not often, thankfully.
302
819738
5238
14:09
(Laughter)
303
825000
2854
14:11
No, she's good at some things,
but if she's cooking,
304
827878
2498
14:14
she's dealing with people on the phone,
305
830400
1876
14:16
she's talking to the kids,
she's painting the ceiling,
306
832300
2556
14:18
she's doing open-heart surgery over here.
307
834880
3096
14:22
If I'm cooking, the door
is shut, the kids are out,
308
838000
2976
14:25
the phone's on the hook,
if she comes in I get annoyed.
309
841000
2976
14:28
I say, "Terry, please,
I'm trying to fry an egg in here."
310
844000
3071
14:31
(Laughter)
311
847095
6730
14:38
"Give me a break."
312
854254
1200
14:39
(Laughter)
313
855478
1720
14:41
Actually, do you know
that old philosophical thing,
314
857222
2499
14:43
if a tree falls in a forest
and nobody hears it, did it happen?
315
859745
3253
14:47
Remember that old chestnut?
316
863252
1329
14:48
I saw a great t-shirt
recently, which said,
317
864605
2409
14:51
"If a man speaks his mind
in a forest, and no woman hears him,
318
867038
3938
14:55
is he still wrong?"
319
871000
1396
14:56
(Laughter)
320
872420
5606
15:03
And the third thing about intelligence is,
321
879976
2000
15:06
it's distinct.
322
882000
1369
15:07
I'm doing a new book at the moment
called "Epiphany,"
323
883754
2573
15:10
which is based on a series
of interviews with people
324
886351
2474
15:12
about how they discovered their talent.
325
888849
1920
15:14
I'm fascinated
by how people got to be there.
326
890793
2169
15:16
It's really prompted by a conversation
I had with a wonderful woman
327
892986
3190
15:20
who maybe most people
have never heard of, Gillian Lynne.
328
896200
2676
15:22
Have you heard of her? Some have.
329
898900
1630
15:24
She's a choreographer,
and everybody knows her work.
330
900554
2522
15:27
She did "Cats" and "Phantom of the Opera."
331
903100
2001
15:29
She's wonderful.
332
905125
978
15:30
I used to be on the board
of The Royal Ballet,
333
906127
2146
15:32
as you can see.
334
908297
1201
15:33
Anyway, Gillian and I had
lunch one day and I said,
335
909522
2400
15:36
"How did you get to be a dancer?"
336
912047
1800
15:37
It was interesting.
337
913976
1000
15:39
When she was at school,
she was really hopeless.
338
915000
2350
15:41
And the school, in the '30s,
wrote to her parents and said,
339
917374
3602
15:45
"We think Gillian
has a learning disorder."
340
921000
2000
15:47
She couldn't concentrate;
she was fidgeting.
341
923024
2142
15:49
I think now they'd say she had ADHD.
Wouldn't you?
342
925190
3290
15:52
But this was the 1930s, and ADHD
hadn't been invented at this point.
343
928504
4059
15:56
It wasn't an available condition.
344
932587
2389
15:59
(Laughter)
345
935000
2737
16:01
People weren't aware they could have that.
346
937761
2060
16:03
(Laughter)
347
939845
2134
16:06
Anyway, she went to see this specialist.
348
942003
4278
16:10
So, this oak-paneled room,
and she was there with her mother,
349
946305
3722
16:14
and she was led and sat
on this chair at the end,
350
950051
2477
16:16
and she sat on her hands for 20 minutes
while this man talked to her mother
351
952552
3639
16:20
about the problems
Gillian was having at school.
352
956215
2328
16:22
Because she was disturbing people;
her homework was always late; and so on,
353
958567
3677
16:26
little kid of eight.
354
962268
1096
16:27
In the end, the doctor
went and sat next to Gillian, and said,
355
963388
3055
16:30
"I've listened to all these
things your mother's told me,
356
966467
2705
16:33
I need to speak to her privately.
357
969196
1619
16:34
Wait here. We'll be back;
we won't be very long,"
358
970839
2376
16:37
and they went and left her.
359
973239
2325
16:39
But as they went out of the room,
360
975588
1636
16:41
he turned on the radio
that was sitting on his desk.
361
977248
2500
16:44
And when they got out, he said to her
mother, "Just stand and watch her."
362
980342
3430
16:48
And the minute they left the room,
363
984000
2991
16:51
she was on her feet, moving to the music.
364
987015
2484
16:53
And they watched for a few minutes
and he turned to her mother and said,
365
989523
3453
16:57
"Mrs. Lynne, Gillian
isn't sick; she's a dancer.
366
993000
3976
17:01
Take her to a dance school."
367
997000
1976
17:03
I said, "What happened?"
368
999000
1976
17:05
She said, "She did. I can't tell you
how wonderful it was.
369
1001000
2976
17:08
We walked in this room
and it was full of people like me.
370
1004000
2753
17:10
People who couldn't sit still.
371
1006777
2199
17:13
People who had to move to think."
Who had to move to think.
372
1009000
4587
17:17
They did ballet, they did tap, jazz;
they did modern; they did contemporary.
373
1013746
3630
17:21
She was eventually auditioned
for the Royal Ballet School;
374
1017400
2820
17:24
she became a soloist; she had
a wonderful career at the Royal Ballet.
375
1020244
3299
17:27
She eventually graduated
from the Royal Ballet School,
376
1023567
2608
17:30
founded the Gillian Lynne Dance Company,
377
1026200
1975
17:32
met Andrew Lloyd Webber.
378
1028200
1243
17:33
She's been responsible for
379
1029568
1409
17:35
some of the most successful
musical theater productions in history,
380
1031001
3146
17:38
she's given pleasure to millions,
and she's a multi-millionaire.
381
1034172
3072
17:41
Somebody else might have put her
on medication and told her to calm down.
382
1037269
4070
17:45
(Applause)
383
1041364
6782
17:52
What I think it comes to is this:
384
1048575
1601
17:54
Al Gore spoke the other night
385
1050200
1776
17:56
about ecology and the revolution
that was triggered by Rachel Carson.
386
1052000
4269
18:01
I believe our only hope for the future
387
1057111
2166
18:03
is to adopt a new conception
of human ecology,
388
1059301
3833
18:07
one in which we start
to reconstitute our conception
389
1063158
2818
18:10
of the richness of human capacity.
390
1066000
1976
18:12
Our education system has mined our minds
391
1068000
3499
18:15
in the way that we strip-mine the earth:
for a particular commodity.
392
1071523
3276
18:19
And for the future, it won't serve us.
393
1075188
2484
18:21
We have to rethink
the fundamental principles
394
1077696
2280
18:24
on which we're educating our children.
395
1080000
1968
18:26
There was a wonderful quote
by Jonas Salk, who said,
396
1082087
2674
18:28
"If all the insects
were to disappear from the Earth,
397
1084785
5039
18:33
within 50 years all life
on Earth would end.

We have to be careful now

that we use this gift wisely

and that we avert some of the scenarios
that we've talked about.
405

And the only way we'll do it is by seeing

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Ken Robinson - Author/educator
Creativity expert Sir Ken Robinson challenges the way we're educating our children. He champions a radical rethink of our school systems, to cultivate creativity and acknowledge multiple types of intelligence.

Why you should listen

Why don't we get the best out of people? Sir Ken Robinson argues that it's because we've been educated to become good workers, rather than creative thinkers. Students with restless minds and bodies -- far from being cultivated for their energy and curiosity -- are ignored or even stigmatized, with terrible consequences. "We are educating people out of their creativity," Robinson says. It's a message with deep resonance. Robinson's TED Talk has been distributed widely around the Web since its release in June 2006. The most popular words framing blog posts on his talk? "Everyone should watch this."

A visionary cultural leader, Sir Ken led the British government's 1998 advisory committee on creative and cultural education, a massive inquiry into the significance of creativity in the educational system and the economy, and was knighted in 2003 for his achievements. His 2009 book, The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything, is a New York Times bestseller and has been translated into 21 languages. A 10th anniversary edition of his classic work on creativity and innovation, Out of Our Minds: Learning to be Creative, was published in 2011. His 2013 book, Finding Your Element: How to Discover Your Talents and Passions and Transform Your Life, is a practical guide that answers questions about finding your personal Element. In his latest book, Creative Schools: The Grassroots Revolution That’s Transforming Education, he argues for an end to our outmoded industrial educational system and proposes a highly personalized, organic approach that draws on today’s unprecedented technological and professional resources to engage all students.
