There are a million pictures that I could click through here,
我有上百萬張照片可以展示，
and had to choose carefully -- this is one of my favorites -- of students learning,
可我得小心的選擇--好，這是我最喜歡的一張--學生正在學習的照片，
of what learning can look like in a landscape where we let go of the idea that kids have to come to school to get the information,
學習可以是什么樣子，在一個我們放棄傳統觀念的環境中，學生非得來學校以獲得知識這樣的想法，
but instead, ask them what they can do with it.
取而代之，問他們，他們可以利用這些知識來做些什么。
Ask them really interesting questions. They will not disappoint.
問他們真正有趣的問題。他們不會讓人失望。
Ask them to go to places, to see things for themselves, to actually experience the learning, to play, to inquire.
要求他們去不同的地方，去親眼見識不同的事情，去真正的體驗學習，去玩，去查詢。
This is one of my favorite photos, because this was taken on Tuesday, when I asked the students to go to the polls.
這是我最喜歡的照片之一，因為這是一張星期二照的照片，當是我要求學生們去投票。
This is Robbie, and this was his first day of voting, and he wanted to share that with everybody and do that.
這是Robbie，這是他第一次投票，而他想要和大家分享這個投票的經歷。
But this is learning too, because we asked them to go out into real spaces.
但這也是學習，因為我們要他們到外頭真實的世界去。
The main point is that, if we continue to look at education as if it's about coming to school to get the information
重點是，如果我們繼續把教育當作是要來學校取得知識，
and not about experiential learning, empowering student voice and embracing failure, we're missing the mark.
而不是體驗學習的過程，傾聽學生的聲音，接納錯誤和失敗，我們將會誤解上學的意義。
And everything that everybody is talking about today isn't possible
而今天每個人在談論的每件事情都將不可能達成，
if we keep having an educational system that does not value these qualities,
如果我們繼續這樣的教育系統而不重視這些價值，
because we won't get there with a standardized test, and we won't get there with a culture of one right answer.
因為我們是不可能依靠標準化測試，一種只有一個標準答案的文化是沒有辦法引領我們達到目標的。
We know how to do this better, and it's time to do better.
我們知道怎么樣可以做得更好，而現在就是需要做得更好的時候了。
