Dialogue: 0,0:00:01.94,0:00:05.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,On the relevance of education...
Dialogue: 0,0:00:05.33,0:00:06.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,How is education relevant?
Dialogue: 0,0:00:06.71,0:00:08.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I mean, I see education…
Dialogue: 0,0:00:08.46,0:00:12.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I mean, sort of the stock answer it’s the organized transmission of culture, right?
Dialogue: 0,0:00:12.30,0:00:13.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That’s kind of important…
Dialogue: 0,0:00:13.71,0:00:16.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You want to, you want to teach the younger since they came up,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:16.19,0:00:20.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you want to impart the culture and shared experience,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:20.38,0:00:22.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so obviously education is important because
Dialogue: 0,0:00:22.02,0:00:27.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that’s the institutionalization of that shared experience.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:27.56,0:00:29.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,How do we make it relevant?
Dialogue: 0,0:00:29.18,0:00:30.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,One of the problems with education right now is,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:30.94,0:00:34.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,although that’s how we’re imparting culture it is completely impersonal.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:34.14,0:00:39.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It is an institution as a factory-based thing: “We will give you education”.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:39.52,0:00:44.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I think one of the themes I’m hearing especially at the Open Education Conference where we are now,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:44.75,0:00:50.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is the role of the individual perspective, the multiple perspectives and
Dialogue: 0,0:00:50.47,0:00:53.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,taking ownership so it is internally motivated.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:53.76,0:00:57.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And once we get that internal and intrinsic motivation,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:57.13,0:01:03.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the self-motivation, the self-directedness as well as the institutional side of things,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:03.61,0:01:05.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,hopefully education gets more relevant to the individual learners
Dialogue: 0,0:01:05.77,0:01:08.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as well as all of us as a shared culture.
