TED精彩演讲成功的钥匙毅力

1、TED 精彩演讲：成功的钥匙？毅力这是一篇由网络搜集整理的关于 TED 精彩演讲：成功的钥匙？毅力的文档，希望对你能有 帮助。我发现，我最好和最差的学生之间的差异 并不仅仅是智商。 有些非常优 秀的学生 智商并非特别得高 有些非常聪明的学生，学业也并非很好。And that got me thinking. The kinds of things you need to learn in seventhgrade math, sure, theyre hard: ratios, decimals, the area of a parallelogram. Butthese concepts a

2、re not impossible, and I was firmly convinced that every one of my students could learn the material if they worked hard and long enough.这引发了我的思考。 七年级数学要学的东西 确实挺难：比例、小数、 平行四边形的面积。 但这些概念并不是不能理解， 我也坚信我的每一位学生 都 能学会这些知识， 只要他们足够认真、坚持用功。After several more years of teaching, I came to the conclusion that w

3、hatwe need in education is a much better understanding of students and learningfrom a motivational perspective, from a psychological perspective. In education,the one thing we know how to measure best is I.Q., but what if doing well in schooland in life depends on much more than your ability to lear

4、n quickly and easily?教了几年以后， 我得出一个结论： 我们的教育所需要的 是一种对学生、对学习更好的理解 从动机的角度、 从心理的角度去理解。 在教育领域，我们最擅长测试的指标 是智商， 但如果说在学校和生活中的表现好坏 不仅仅 取决于 你是否能又好又快地学习呢?1So I left the classroom, and I went to graduate school to become apsychologist. I started studying kids and adults in all kinds of super challenging setting

5、s, and in every study my question was, who is successful here and whyMy research team and I went to West Point Military Academy.于是，我离开了课堂， 来到了研究所，成为了一名心理学家。 我开始研究儿童与成人 处于各种艰巨挑战中的表现。 在每次研究中，我关注的是： 谁 会成功爲什麽会成功 我和我的研究团队去了西点军校。We tried to predict which cadets would stay in military training and whichwou

6、ld drop out. We went to the National Spelling Bee and tried to predict which children would advance farthest in competition.我们试着预测哪些学员 能通过军事训练，哪些会放弃。 我们去看全国拼 字比赛， 试着预测哪些孩子能在比赛中 笑到最后。We studied rookie teachers working in really tough neighborhoods, askingwhich teachers are still going to be here in t

7、eaching by the end of the school year,and of those, who will be the most effective at improving learning outcomes for their students?我们研究在非常艰苦的环境下 工作的新教师， 预测哪些教师在学年末时还能坚持在岗位上。 当然还有，哪些教师教出的学生 成绩的提高最为显着?We partnered with private companies, asking, which of these salespeopleis going to keep their jobs

8、And whos going to earn the most money In all thosevery different contexts, one characteristic emerged as a significant predictor ofsuccess. And it wasnt social intelligence. It wasnt good looks, physical health, and2it wasnt I.Q. It was grit.我们和私人公司合作， 预测哪些销售人员能保住工作谁能赚最多钱 在这些非常不同的背景下， 我们发现有一个特质 能够很好

9、地预测成功。 它不是社交能力。 不是美丽的外貌，不是健康的身体，也不是智商。 而是意志力。Grit is passion and perseverance for very long-term goals. Grit is havingstamina. Grit is sticking with your future, day in, day out, not just for the week, notjust for the month, but for years, and working really hard to make that future a reality. Grit

10、is living life like its a marathon, not a sprint.意志力是面对长远目标时的热情和毅力。 意志力是有耐力的表现。 意志力是日复一日依然对未来坚信不已 不只是这周、 不只是这个月， 而是年复一年。用心、努力工作 来实现所坚信的那个未来。 意志力是将生活看作是一场马 拉松，不是短跑。A few years ago, I started studying grit in the Chicago public schools. Iasked thousands of high school juniors to take grit questionnair

11、es, and thenwaited around more than a year to see who would graduate. Turns out that grittierkids were significantly more likely to graduate, even when I matched them onevery characteristic I could measure, things like family income, standardized achievement test scores, even how safe kids felt when

12、 they were at school.几年前，我在芝加哥公立学校 开始研究意志力。 我请数以千计的高中生填写关于意志力的问卷。 然后等了大约一年多 看看谁会毕业。 结果发现，意志力越坚定的孩子 毕业的可能性明显越高， 其他所有可能的影响因素都被考虑并排除了 比如家庭收入， 标准化测验的分数， 甚至孩子们在学校时的安全感。3So its not just at West Point or the National Spelling Bee that grit matters.Its also in school, especially for kids at risk for droppin

13、g out. To me, the mostshocking thing about grit is how little we know, how little science knows, aboutbuilding it. Every day, parents and teachers ask me, How do I build grit in kidsWhat do I do to teach kids a solid work ethic How do I keep them motivated for the long run The honest answer is, I do

14、nt know.所以意志力并不只是在 西点军校或全国拼字比赛中 非常重要。在学校，尤其是对有辍学危险的.孩子来说， 意志力同样重要。 关于意志力，最令我吃惊的事情 是我们以及科学界 对于如何锻炼意志力知之甚少。 每天，家长和老师都会问我， 如何锻炼孩子们的意志力 我怎么教会孩子坚实的职业道德 怎样才 能让他们有长远的动力” 最诚实的回答是，我不知道。(Laughter)(笑声)What I do know is that talent doesnt make you gritty. Our data show veryclearly that there are many talented i

15、ndividuals who simply do not follow throughon their commitments. In fact, in our data, grit is usually unrelated or even inversely related to measures of talent.我所知道的是，有才华不意味着就有意志力。 我们的资料非常清楚地揭示 有很多才华横溢的人 并不能坚持到底，实现承诺。 事实上，我们的研究发 现， 意志力通常与才华无关， 有时甚至成反比。So far, the best idea Ive heard about building

16、grit in kids is somethingcalled growth mindset. This is an idea developed at Stanford University by Carol4Dweck, and it is the belief that the ability to learn is not fixed, that it can changewith your effort. Dr. Dweck has shown that when kids read and learn about thebrain and how it changes and gr

17、ows in response to challenge, theyre much morelikely to persevere when they fail, because they dont believe that failure is a permanent condition.关于锻炼孩子们的意志， 到目前为止，我听过的最好的方法 叫做 “成长型思维模式”理论。 这是史丹福大学的 Carol Dweck 的研究的成果。 这个理论相信 学习的能力不是一成不变的， 它会由于你的努力发生变化。 Dweck 博士已证明，当孩子们 阅读和学习大脑的相关知识 以及大脑在面对挑战时 会怎样变化

18、和成长时， 他们更有可能在失败时继续坚持， 因为他们不相信 他们永远 会失败。So growth mindset is a great idea for building grit. But we need more. Andthats where Im going to end my remarks, because thats where we are. Thats thework that stands before us. We need to take our best ideas, our strongestintuitions, and we need to test them. We need to measure whether weve beensuccessful, and we have to be willing to fail, to be wrong, to start over again with lessons le
