Online Education-英语听力

[00:00.744]Online Education
在线教育 [00:02.764]Good morning, everybody
大家早上好 [00:04.427]In today's lecture, we will talk about online education
今天我们来聊一聊在线教育 [00:08.769]You know, in some parts of the world
你知道吗，在全球的一部分国家中 [00:11.319]It is not that easy for people to receive education
人们不能轻松地接受教育 [00:15.056]And even in the United States where education is available
甚至在像美国这样的教育大国中也有这种现象 [00:19.439]It might not be within reach
教育可能不能触手可及 [00:21.936]Thus, online courses provided by those world-famous universities
由世界知名的大学提供的网上课程 [00:27.137]Can bring the best quality education to as many people as we could around the world
可以把最优质的教育尽可能多的带到全世界 [00:33.076]And for free
并且免费 [00:34.748]First, let's talk a little bit about some of the components that go into online education
首先，我们先聊聊网上教育的几个组成 [00:41.076]The first component is that when you move away from the constraints of a physical classroom
第一点就是你不必拘泥于传统形式的教室中 [00:47.209]And design content for an online format
并且可以用网上的形式设计内容 [00:50.235]You can break away from
你可以分解 [00:52.405]For example
例如 [00:53.451]The one-hour lecture format
一个一小时的课 [00:56.411]You can break up the material
你可以拆开 [00:58.479]For example, into short
变成段落 [01:00.318]Modular units of 8 to 12 minutes
变成8——12分钟的模块化单元 [01:03.497]And each of the short units introduces a coherent concept
每个小单元加在一起又是一整课 [01:07.714]Students can deal with this material in different ways
学生也可以随心学习材料 [01:11.711]Depending on their backgrounds, their skills or their interests
根据他们不同的背景，能力以及兴趣爱好 [01:15.389]So, for example
所以，举个例子 [01:17.295]Some students might benefit from a little bit of preparatory material
有些学生不能适应预习材料 [01:21.800]That other students might already have
或是其他学生已经有了 [01:24.450]Other students might be interested in a particular topic that they want to pursue individually
还有的学生对特定的话题感兴趣，想自己深入挖掘 [01:30.945]So this format allows students to break away from the one-size-fits-all model of education
所以这种形式让学生能摆脱传统教育中以一套百的方式 [01:37.485]And allows students to follow a much more personalized curriculum
允许学生进行更个性化的课程 [01:42.488]Second and perhaps one of the biggest components of our online education is that
关于网络教育的第二点也是最重要的一点 [01:48.598]When we need to have students
我们需要学生 [01:50.042]Who practice with the material in order to really understand it
真正把学习材料融会贯通 [01:53.593]There's been a range of studies that demonstrate the importance of this
已经有很多研究证明了这种融会贯通的重要性 [01:58.586]A study in Science last year, for example
例如去年在科学杂志上刊登的研究 [02:02.025]Demonstrates that even simple retrieval practice
证明了哪怕最简单的复习 [02:05.462]Where students are just supposed to repeat what they've already learned
当学生不断重复他们已经学过的东西后 [02:09.428]Gives considerably improved results on various achievement tests
能在各种能力测试中产生可观的提升 [02:13.657]So, we need to build in much more meaningful practice questions
所以我们需要建立更有意义的练习 [02:18.762]Now, fortunately
很幸运，现在 [02:20.950]Technology has helped us to provide the students with feedback on those questions
科技帮助我们收到学生练习的反馈 [02:26.094]We can now grade a range of interesting types of homework online
我们现在可以给大部分网上作业打分 [02:30.797]The third component is what is called collaborative learning
第三点就是合作学习 [02:34.545]Students could collaborate in different online courses in a variety of ways
学生应该在不同种网络课程中多元化合作 [02:39.551]First of all
第一 [02:41.101]There was a question and answer forum
现在有一个问题，并且开启了讨论会 [02:43.486]Where students could pose questions
这里学生或是提出问题 [02:45.877]And other students could answer those questions
或是回答问题 [02:48.372]And what is really amazing is that
这一切真的很好 [02:51.114]Because there were so many students
因为网络教育有很大的人群基数 [02:53.220]It means that even if a student posed a question at 3 o'clock in the morning
这就意味着哪怕一个学生凌晨三点发了一个问题 [02:57.642]Somewhere around the world there would be somebody who was awake and working on the same problem
就可能在世界上其他地方有人醒着并且有相同的困惑 [03:04.162]And he might answer that question
他也可能有答案 [03:06.068]And so, in many of the online courses
正因如此，在许多的网上课程中 [03:10.214]The median response time for a question on the question and answer forum was 22 minutes
每个问题平均22分钟就能被解答 [03:16.252]So in a word
总而言之 [03:18.151]If we wanted to offer top quality education to everyone around the world for free
如果我们想向全世界的人免费提供最优质的教育 [03:23.462]What would that affect us?
什么能影响我们呢？ [03:25.716]Three things
三件事 [03:27.311]First, it would establish education as a fundamental human right
第一，我们可以将教育变为人们的基本权益 [03:32.324]Where anyone around the world with the ability and the motivation could get the skills they need
全世界只要有能力和动力的人都能进行学习 [03:38.836]Second, it would enable lifelong learning
第二，它可以保证活到老学到老 [03:42.342]It's a shame that for so many of us
对于我们很多人来说 [03:45.588]Learning stops when we finish high school or when we finish college
在高中或者大学毕业后就停止学习是可耻的 [03:49.838]By making this amazing content available
让网络课程触手可及 [03:53.404]We would be able to learn something new every time we wanted
我们能随时随地学到新知识 [03:57.281]Whether it's just to expand our minds or it's to change our lives
或是为了开拓视野或是为了改变生活 [04:02.183]And finally
最后 [04:03.513]This would make a wave of innovation possible
这是满满的创新与机遇 [04:06.598]Because amazing talent can be found everywhere
因为它能提供很好的技能培训 [04:09.903]To sum up today
小结一下今天 [04:11.422]We have talked about some features of online education and it's benefits
我们谈论了一些网上教学的特点和好处 [04:16.440]We are sure that online education will have a promising future
我们可以坚信在线教育有着光明的而未来 [04:20.817]In the next lecture
下一课 [04:22.451]We're going to learn how online education has changed people around the world.
我们谈一谈网上教育如何改变了世界各地的人
