00:00:02,808 --> 00:00:04,909
On the relevance of education...

2
00:00:04,924 --> 00:00:06,453
It’s such a huge question,

3
00:00:06,453 --> 00:00:07,796
and it’s hard to know where to start.

4
00:00:07,796 --> 00:00:09,280
But I think, really,

5
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:13,662
what you have to do first is to connect with the individuals’ lives.

6
00:00:13,662 --> 00:00:17,622
You need to really understand what’s going on in their own lives,

7
00:00:17,622 --> 00:00:21,028
in their own community, what’s important to them,

8
00:00:21,028 --> 00:00:23,194
what do they want to learn,

9
00:00:23,194 --> 00:00:25,997
and really make those connections right from the start.

10
00:00:25,997 --> 00:00:29,592
Rather than, the other way around where you, you know,

11
00:00:29,592 --> 00:00:33,404
start with a whole syllabus of what you think is important to the students.

12
00:00:33,404 --> 00:00:34,939
Start with them first.

13
00:00:34,939 --> 00:00:40,146
Way more difficult to teach that way, and so rarely done.

14
00:00:40,146 --> 00:00:42,187
I think that’s the key.
