  • Is the current education system sufficient to make kids succeed in 21st century? Dr. Laura believes otherwise. Her talk will ensure that you and your kids are prepared to succeed in 21 century.
    Laura A. Jana, MD is world's leading pediatrician, media spokesperson for the American Academy of Pediatrics, and award-winning author. With more than 20 years of experience in pediatrics, parenting, early education, public health and media/communications, she most recently served as Director of Innovation at the University of Nebraska Medical Center and has a faculty appointment at Penn State University’s Prevention Research Center.
    In addition to her acclaimed 'Heading Home With Your Newborn', 'Food Fights', and three children’s books, her most recent books - 'The Toddler Brain' and 'Jumping Into Kindergarten' - both focus on the 21st century skills needed to succeed in today’s world, and how they can best be fostered during the foundational first five years of life.
    To everyone seeking the best possible environment for their child's brain development, Dr. Laura Jana's insights have been nothing short of life-changing. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

      Yes, children learn best from what they observe and experience around them. I remember my nephew at two years of age quickly pulling a piece of tissue from the box when he saw his grandad began to drool (grandad had Parkinson's and he had often observe grandma doing this). He would also put his hand on his arm and "talk" to him as he had seen us doing the same.

    Wow this video holds such brutal brutal honesty but that’s what I need.
    Me skills - mindfulness.
    We skills - relationship skills, corporation
    Why? Inquisitiveness, the important thing is to never stop questioning
    Will- can do, drive and determination, grit, perseverance, inquisitiveness motivation
    Wiggle- physical and intellectual health can be hand in hand, try not to stop creating, it’s okay to work hard when your not feeling well but give wiggle room when you absolutely need it
    Wobble- face, over come, learn failure. Adapt. Fail now, fail often, fail forward.
    What if - possibilities, creativity, don’t limit their potential.

    Wonderful talk, woke me up to something I have been finding challenging, thank you Dr. Jana. One of the best points that I picked up from this talk, was that being the best parents we can be is not to maximize their possessions, but their potential. I love this point because there are only so many possessions we can provide them with (perhaps some more than others, depending on wealth levels, but as Steve Jobs had once said, before he died, that after all that success and wealth he had built, he realised that he could bring nothing away with him...and that ultimately, it was the relationships and experiences that mattered.), so as long as we provide the children with the necessary 'possessions' to enable them to build their potential, it's their potential that can take them way beyond what anyone would be able to imagine, and THAT, is the best gift we can give them!

  • @iammychoices
    @iammychoices Před 5 lety +70

    Thank you for this awesome talk. It makes total sense to teach these Qi-skills while the children are young. However, I believe we ought to first teach and train their parents. After all, how can the parents teach their young when they have not mastered the Qi-skills themselves? It's like expecting something for nothing, right? Thanks again.

      Agree totally. Children learn best from what they observe around them.
      Children Learn What They Live By Dorothy Law Nolte, Ph.D.
      If children live with criticism, they learn to condemn.
      If children live with hostility, they learn to fight.
      If children live with fear, they learn to be apprehensive.
      If children live with pity, they learn to feel sorry for themselves.
      If children live with ridicule, they learn to feel shy.
      If children live with jealousy, they learn to feel envy.
      If children live with shame, they learn to feel guilty.
      If children live with encouragement, they learn confidence.
      If children live with tolerance, they learn patience.
      If children live with praise, they learn appreciation.
      If children live with acceptance, they learn to love.
      If children live with approval, they learn to like themselves.
      If children live with recognition, they learn it is good to have a goal.
      If children live with sharing, they learn generosity.
      If children live with honesty, they learn truthfulness.
      If children live with fairness, they learn justice.
      If children live with kindness and consideration, they learn respect.
      If children live with security, they learn to have faith in themselves and in those about them.
      If children live with friendliness, they learn the world is a nice place in which to live.

    In a fast changing environment, we will need to work towards just-in-time learning. We have to learn to skills when we need them. This will require us to constantly learn new skills and it must be done at a much faster pace than today. We will be in an unstructured environment but we need to simulate a structured environment. This is the one skill that must be developed. It will also require infrastructure support.

    Humans need the freedom to develop the whole of who they are, what they think and the effects of their actions, they need time to play, engage with one another, explore their feelings and understand their environment, learn eye to hand co-ordination, free play, and much more, and a strong sense of self and confidence in their own ability. They could learn to do simple actions around the home, how to handle relationships of parents, siblings, and once they are ready, perhaps to start learning maths and english and other subjects once they feel positive about their own individuality, they will know how to handle their feelings, they can relate how they are feeling with what appropriate action to take in a loving way, they learn facial expressions and body language before coming into a classroom. A teacher will see when a child is engaged in the subject, when the child is giving 100% attention to it, and joyful expression. Its very difficult to engage a child who isn't interested in a subject, and is bored, and they are more able to articulate this as they are more able to express themselves. Play needs to play a bigger role in the early years perhaps they will be ready by 10 years plus. I think we need confidence in self first and then the joy of learning can begin, with more life skills in the curriculum, and maths and english be secondary, if only at a basic level.

    Loved the talk which gave a great perspective on bringing up kids. Question - Isn't Allowing kids to give into their wiggles is in direct contrast to me skills which is meant to teach kids to keep control on their impulses? How should one keep this balance?

    • @laurajana4611
      @laurajana4611 Před 4 lety +6

      This is a great question, and even better because you recognized that it's a balance! For the concept of WIGGLE, what I based it on is the understanding that things like creative thinking and engagement are enhanced by physical interaction and movement, and also on the recognition that some children literally can't sit still well, and if they are forced too when it's not necessary, it actually detracts from their ability to think/concentrate/learn. What I also also tell people in the (longer) talks I give on this subject is that letting kids WIGGLE does not simply mean let them bounce off the walls, since they clearly don't learn that way either. The example I like to use with respect to young children is when a child has a hard time sitting still to listen to a story, and all too often ends up distracting others, being scolded, and certainly not retaining much/engaging well with the story/book. In this case, I tell parents/teachers to try seeing if perhaps the child simply needs something to "fidget" with (small, handheld, non-distracting). For others, who really don't sit still well, letting them stand up and/or choosing to read them a book that allows them to interact physically (my common example is "Jump, Frog, Jump" - let kids get up and jump). If you think about adults, by the way - think about the recognition that hands-on activities/manipulatives on tables at conferences make them way more engaging, and that people are turning to walking meetings and treadmill desks, etc. As for the ME Skills - they come into play when you try to help children put their WIGGLES to work (ie not just bounce off the walls, when/where acceptable, find ways to be abole to move/interact without disruption, etc). Hope that helps, and thanks for your comment and thoughtful question

    以下是七种关键技能的详细总结:
    1. 我技能(Me skills):这包括自我意识、自我控制、专注和注意力。这类技能强调情商,帮助孩子掌控自己的思维、情感和行为。这也包括培养孩子的自我管理能力,如情绪控制和专注力。
    2. 我们技能(We skills):这些是人际交往技能,包括沟通、协作、移情和积极倾听。孩子通过这些技能学会与他人互动、建立关系和理解他人的感受,对于社交和情感智力至关重要。
    3. 为什么技能(Y skills):这涉及好奇心、质疑、探究和提出问题。在信息时代,提问的能力变得尤为重要,因为它有助于孩子理解世界,激发创新思维。
    4. 意志技能(Will skills):这包括毅力和坚韧不拔,以及激励和动力。这类技能帮助孩子坚持不懈,克服困难,追求目标,鼓励内在动机而不是外部奖励。
    5. 扭动技能(Wiggle skills):这指的是身体和智力的不安和活跃性。孩子需要有机会通过身体活动来探索和学习,而不是过于约束他们的行动。
    6. 摇摆技能(Wobble skills):这包括敏捷性和适应性,以及面对、克服和从失败中学习。孩子需要学会如何处理挫折和逆境,以适应迅速变化的环境。
    7. 假设技能(What If skills):这是创新、想象力、创造性思维和跳出常规思考的能力。这类技能鼓励孩子想象世界不仅仅是它现在的样子,而是它可能会成为的样子,培养创新者和梦想家。

      The higher a person's IQ, the more they need to occupy the part of their brain they are not using so that that side will not interfere with the focus on the part of their brain they are using. Therefore, they doodle, fidget, have music going, bounce their knee, etc.

      Never say never...there are plenty of times when what is perceived as bad (fidgety, restlessness) actually represents inquisitiveness, curiosity, especially in young children whose enthusiasm for hands-on exploration and understanding can be "mis-judged" as disobedient and distracting. Not always, but far too often!
