or
Good Morning
thank you very much good morning
I have been invited today to talk about
education
and that makes all the sense in the world
because I spend my days thinking about
education in what works where not
it works on how they are doing in other
parts of the world to generate better
results to better train the
teachers to generate more students
happy
and when I’m not thinking about education
and if you could put my presentation
I thank you very much
when I’m not thinking about education
I dedicate myself 100% to this character
this is my daughter cayetana has nine
months and as every new baby has us
crazy has become the center of our
lives is an awake girl
to life to learn from exploring the world
and because I start this talk mentioning
cayetana
because I want to start thinking about three
questions I’m going to ask you the day of
today
the first inspired in cayetana I want
Imagine a baby as a cayetan to
who you want very much
but his can be his son can be his
nephew a cousin someone a person
little girl whom you love very much
and for whom you want
the best they have
the second question how the world will be
when that little person when that baby
has completed his formal education is
say when you’re 18 or 19 and have
that face the world have to
decide what study to decide
whether to work or not have to decide whether to go
to the university or go to an institute
technical how will the world be thinking in
how the world has changed in the past
20 years let’s think how it will change in the
following 20 some theories will be a
much more interconnected world and so
much much smaller
It will be a world where we have resources
much more limited natural
and it will be a world where machines and
computers will have replaced millions
of works
and there goes the third question
what kind of education do you have to receive
that little person like cayetana is
little person that you want very much and
for whom you want the best
what kind of education do you have to receive
she or he to be successful in that
unknown world to be happy
in that world that we do not know yet
to get a job to be able to
relate to other people what kind
of education requires
the educational experience that you have
will determine if it is successful or not
successful and if he is happy
in my work I have been able to visit hundreds
of schools throughout the urban Ecuador
fiscal fiscomisionales
private in wealthy areas in
poor communities of the Sierra de la
coast and east of everything
what always catches my attention and I
Surprising is that they all look
exactly the same
while a classroom is the teacher or the
teacher in the front in the
blackboard explaining concepts theories
topics and are children or young people
the students sitting still in
silence
discipline prevails
premium the order
we teach children to sit still
for long periods of time when
we should motivate them to move that
explore that they touch that they explore with their
senses with your hands that are wrong
We qualify for exams and assignments
assessing whether the children know and
memorize knowledge and concepts
when we should be observing that
develop skills and abilities to
life to face the real world
we send homework assignments thinking that
they have to stay even longer
sitting and still when they should be
exploring other interests that do not have
at school or they do not have in the
school and when they should be
relating to each other
this generates a lot of frustration
I imagine a boring generation that
he has not had the opportunity to explore
interests that the
opportunity to develop and understand
what is good for what is talented
a generation that goes to the office to
meet not to innovate not to solve
problems
of similar sound sounds familiar
what consequences can this have on
our economy in our capacity
as a country to face the world in the
future of competing with other countries if
we have a whole generation
unmotivated to pathetic boring
let’s go back to question 3
what kind of education does that child require?
that you want so much to be able to be
successful in life requires this type of
education for those jobs that still
we do not know how they are going to do
this exercise of three questions was
inspired by this book skills the
21st century berni tooling
transhotel
and what are the skills of the century
21 are those skills that
they require social interaction are
interpersonal social skills that
they allow a person to come before
think about what’s going to go wrong and be able to
solve conflicts before
happen that allow a person
empathize and put on shoes
someone else that they allow a
person sometimes lead and sometimes follow
those are the 21st century skills
relationship leadership adaptation to
change problem solution those are
the skills that are needed in the
today’s world and that are needed in a
unknown world of tomorrow
deivid deming harvard professor
published very recently a very
interesting that explains that the
professions that require high
social interaction lawyers psychologists
economists
doctors the people who are in the day
a day interacting in their jobs with
other people those professions have
grown 12 percent in the past 30
years
on the contrary professions
mathematics that require little
social interaction that are
specialized in mathematics but that
they do not require the person to relate
with others that have decreased by 3.3
hundred in the last 30 years
and very similarly the valuation of
those professions how much they pay a
person in high professions
social interaction has increased with
the same speed at what this is due to
what is it that the professions of
future the most demanded in the market
employment are those professions
social the answer is very easy
computers are too bad to replicate
human interaction do not succeed
instead the humans
about we went out in this kind of skills
solbes we come out in the skills of
collaboration
it’s very difficult to automate these
skills and that’s why they are every day
most demanded and most required and best
paid in the labor market
they are human skills
let’s think about current education again
that education that keeps us sitting
which is made to replicate a system
which is made to replicate a status
what is done so that all the
world know that you graduate and know
Exactly the same everyone knows
the same thing when you graduate from school is
that the education that we need
the experts say
the experts say that we are educating
to 21st century students with
20th century teachers have heard
that
is that true
I would tell you that is not true
because because the teachers are
Today’s teachers and teachers are
able to learn and re learn how
teach
think that we are teaching with
teachers of the 20th century means that
his teachers were stuck
frozen in time when it’s not like that
they are flesh and blood humans
people capable of learning and
relearn and there’s the real challenge
of education in helping the
teachers to come before the
interests of a new generation that
have video games that have access to
technology that has a lot of content to
reach of your hand that is much more
interesting that the curriculum
teachers are able to innovate
and here I want to ask you all the
world stand up and help me with a
exercise
I want you to cross your arms
I want you to cross the bases comfortable
quite comfortable is not true now
I want you to cross each other’s arms
side
uncomfortable uncomfortable true thanks to everything
the world can take a seat
the same thing happens with the teachers that happens
when they try to do something new they
bother
It is the great challenge of innovating to be uncomfortable
leave the comfort zone but such and
which we are crossing the
arms of two different shapes
if you do it enough times it becomes
increasingly comfortable it becomes increasingly
easier
and there it is there is the challenge to bother them
a little help them push them to innovate
for 4 years he led a
organization that is called the 21 there is
my work team
and what we do is execute programs
that prioritize skills
interpersonal and socio emotional
those skills that are going to
need in the working world and that
currently they are not in the classrooms and
we teach teachers to use and
to put those skills solution of
conflicts effective communication plan
leadership life to put those skills in
the curriculum
So far we have managed to impact the
life of more than 9000 people
the focus is on transforming the
teacher because they are the ones who
they make the educational experience of their
students it does not matter if the classroom
it’s super technological no matter if it’s
who instead learns under a tree
the person who is facilitating the
knowledge and what is he doing to you
practice the skills that you’re going to
need that is the person who makes or
undo your educational experience on
teacher is crucial and that is why the
approach has to be in them is there
where is the challenge
and in the process in the process of innovating
the educational process and in the process of
work I faced with three big
challenges that take away my sleep
they take away sleep like cayetan
number 1 return the students their
Scout capability
I mention Cayetana again because
observe how she learns and how she
explore the world I’ve learned a lot
Cayetano when he picks up a new object he
he passes it between his hands he shakes it for
see if it sounds you bounce the floor to see
what happens what smells gets in his mouth
he explores it literally with the five
senses
think in the classrooms the classrooms
concept are not places of exploration
they are places of reproduction of
knowledge we have taken from them
children and young people the opportunity to
explore and learn with your five
senses this is the first challenge that I
I see and that I think we have to work
about it
number 2 super important allow and
Above all applaud the mistakes
to make a mistake to screw up is to
best way to learn
when I make a mistake I correct when I
I learn wrong I realize that
something I did wrong the educational system puts
the best grades of the
better grades of those students
who memorized the perfect content and
not to the students who were pulled
that cost them that they had to repeat and
that they finally got the homework
we have to start paying attention to
process and not only the result
final
and number 3 give space for
creativity
and for the imagination you go to a center
childish when children are very
and you see a child playing with
a box and feel that it is in a ship
space or is riding a horse or
It’s on a tire and he thinks
is driving the truth we say what
beautiful my love uses the imagination
how spectacular the imagination that
they have the little children you pass to the
primary and in primary you tell him no longer
you have to use the boxes to
certain uses the tires for certain
uses the certain thing this is how they are used
officially
you go to high school it ‘s even worse the
creative are only those people who
they are good for drawing to paint or
who have some physical talent is not
true a talent to draw and it’s not
so we are all creative people
intrinsically and what we have to
motivate is that students who are
in high school they do not feel
creative people feel creative in front
how they come to welcome their opportunities
to how they face the things that
they have to be unknown to new
challenges that’s where one has to be
creative in how it solves the things of
daily life
and the worst of all in the whole process
early childhood education primary and secondary
we completely take away the freedom
creative to teachers
the curriculum is done from the ninth
education ministry floor and you will be
passes a booklet to the teacher when the
teacher is the one who knows their
students who know their community and
who has the ability or should have
the ability to precede their
interests of catching local things is not
true and use them for the process of
learning are they who have to
have creative freedom
what I have told you is not new
surely I’ve heard it before
difficult is to put it into action
this is the shakespeare experience is
one of the activities that we promote
within one of our programs of
the 21 in shakespeare experience these
They are photos of a school called San
jose de la comuna
the teacher had to take a work of
shakespeare and surrender to deliver it
to his students who had never
had a contact with a piece of
literature like this that they would like
the students
they totally disarmed him they made a rap
they disguised themselves they were wrong
they painted is not true they pulled
they repeated that they worked in
team discussed they fought they came back
to work as a team and set up a work
of theater they learned
they learned to collaborate they learned that
they are all creative they learned to
discover the other’s skills
they learned to lose to lose their fear
to make a fool of themselves they learned to talk
in public especially they learned that they
can have fun at school that
important because we separate the fun
of learning when fun is
a channel to learn just like the
mistakes
the students had freedom
creative the central theme of the td I exposed
it’s creative freedom and the system
educational lacks that creative freedom
at all levels and particularly I return to
repeat the teachers I believe in the
teacher’s ability to innovate
unlearn of re learn how to teach
and to become an agent of change
to prepare your students for
jobs that still do not exist
Good Morning
thank you very much good morning
I have been invited today to talk about
education
and that makes all the sense in the world
because I spend my days thinking about
education in what works where not
it works on how they are doing in other
parts of the world to generate better
results to better train the
teachers to generate more students
happy
and when I’m not thinking about education
and if you could put my presentation
I thank you very much
when I’m not thinking about education
I dedicate myself 100% to this character
this is my daughter cayetana has nine
months and as every new baby has us
crazy has become the center of our
lives is an awake girl
to life to learn from exploring the world
and because I start this talk mentioning
cayetana
because I want to start thinking about three
questions I’m going to ask you the day of
today
the first inspired in cayetana I want
Imagine a baby as a cayetan to
who you want very much
but his can be his son can be his
nephew a cousin someone a person
little girl whom you love very much
and for whom you want
the best they have
the second question how the world will be
when that little person when that baby
has completed his formal education is
say when you’re 18 or 19 and have
that face the world have to
decide what study to decide
whether to work or not have to decide whether to go
to the university or go to an institute
technical how will the world be thinking in
how the world has changed in the past
20 years let’s think how it will change in the
following 20 some theories will be a
much more interconnected world and so
much much smaller
It will be a world where we have resources
much more limited natural
and it will be a world where machines and
computers will have replaced millions
of works
and there goes the third question
what kind of education do you have to receive
that little person like cayetana is
little person that you want very much and
for whom you want the best
what kind of education do you have to receive
she or he to be successful in that
unknown world to be happy
in that world that we do not know yet
to get a job to be able to
relate to other people what kind
of education requires
the educational experience that you have
will determine if it is successful or not
successful and if he is happy
in my work I have been able to visit hundreds
of schools throughout the urban Ecuador
fiscal fiscomisionales
private in wealthy areas in
poor communities of the Sierra de la
coast and east of everything
what always catches my attention and I
Surprising is that they all look
exactly the same
while a classroom is the teacher or the
teacher in the front in the
blackboard explaining concepts theories
topics and are children or young people
the students sitting still in
silence
discipline prevails
premium the order
we teach children to sit still
for long periods of time when
we should motivate them to move that
explore that they touch that they explore with their
senses with your hands that are wrong
We qualify for exams and assignments
assessing whether the children know and
memorize knowledge and concepts
when we should be observing that
develop skills and abilities to
life to face the real world
we send homework assignments thinking that
they have to stay even longer
sitting and still when they should be
exploring other interests that do not have
at school or they do not have in the
school and when they should be
relating to each other
this generates a lot of frustration
I imagine a boring generation that
he has not had the opportunity to explore
interests that the
opportunity to develop and understand
what is good for what is talented
a generation that goes to the office to
meet not to innovate not to solve
problems
of similar sound sounds familiar
what consequences can this have on
our economy in our capacity
as a country to face the world in the
future of competing with other countries if
we have a whole generation
unmotivated to pathetic boring
let’s go back to question 3
what kind of education does that child require?
that you want so much to be able to be
successful in life requires this type of
education for those jobs that still
we do not know how they are going to do
this exercise of three questions was
inspired by this book skills the
21st century berni tooling
transhotel
and what are the skills of the century
21 are those skills that
they require social interaction are
interpersonal social skills that
they allow a person to come before
think about what’s going to go wrong and be able to
solve conflicts before
happen that allow a person
empathize and put on shoes
someone else that they allow a
person sometimes lead and sometimes follow
those are the 21st century skills
relationship leadership adaptation to
change problem solution those are
the skills that are needed in the
today’s world and that are needed in a
unknown world of tomorrow
deivid deming harvard professor
published very recently a very
interesting that explains that the
professions that require high
social interaction lawyers psychologists
economists
doctors the people who are in the day
a day interacting in their jobs with
other people those professions have
grown 12 percent in the past 30
years
on the contrary professions
mathematics that require little
social interaction that are
specialized in mathematics but that
they do not require the person to relate
with others that have decreased by 3.3
hundred in the last 30 years
and very similarly the valuation of
those professions how much they pay a
person in high professions
social interaction has increased with
the same speed at what this is due to
what is it that the professions of
future the most demanded in the market
employment are those professions
social the answer is very easy
computers are too bad to replicate
human interaction do not succeed
instead the humans
about we went out in this kind of skills
solbes we come out in the skills of
collaboration
it’s very difficult to automate these
skills and that’s why they are every day
most demanded and most required and best
paid in the labor market
they are human skills
let’s think about current education again
that education that keeps us sitting
which is made to replicate a system
which is made to replicate a status
what is done so that all the
world know that you graduate and know
Exactly the same everyone knows
the same thing when you graduate from school is
that the education that we need
the experts say
the experts say that we are educating
to 21st century students with
20th century teachers have heard
that
is that true
I would tell you that is not true
because because the teachers are
Today’s teachers and teachers are
able to learn and re learn how
teach
think that we are teaching with
teachers of the 20th century means that
his teachers were stuck
frozen in time when it’s not like that
they are flesh and blood humans
people capable of learning and
relearn and there’s the real challenge
of education in helping the
teachers to come before the
interests of a new generation that
have video games that have access to
technology that has a lot of content to
reach of your hand that is much more
interesting that the curriculum
teachers are able to innovate
and here I want to ask you all the
world stand up and help me with a
exercise
I want you to cross your arms
I want you to cross the bases comfortable
quite comfortable is not true now
I want you to cross each other’s arms
side
uncomfortable uncomfortable true thanks to everything
the world can take a seat
the same thing happens with the teachers that happens
when they try to do something new they
bother
It is the great challenge of innovating to be uncomfortable
leave the comfort zone but such and
which we are crossing the
arms of two different shapes
if you do it enough times it becomes
increasingly comfortable it becomes increasingly
easier
and there it is there is the challenge to bother them
a little help them push them to innovate
for 4 years he led a
organization that is called the 21 there is
my work team
and what we do is execute programs
that prioritize skills
interpersonal and socio emotional
those skills that are going to
need in the working world and that
currently they are not in the classrooms and
we teach teachers to use and
to put those skills solution of
conflicts effective communication plan
leadership life to put those skills in
the curriculum
So far we have managed to impact the
life of more than 9000 people
the focus is on transforming the
teacher because they are the ones who
they make the educational experience of their
students it does not matter if the classroom
it’s super technological no matter if it’s
who instead learns under a tree
the person who is facilitating the
knowledge and what is he doing to you
practice the skills that you’re going to
need that is the person who makes or
undo your educational experience on
teacher is crucial and that is why the
approach has to be in them is there
where is the challenge
and in the process in the process of innovating
the educational process and in the process of
work I faced with three big
challenges that take away my sleep
they take away sleep like cayetan
number 1 return the students their
Scout capability
I mention Cayetana again because
observe how she learns and how she
explore the world I’ve learned a lot
Cayetano when he picks up a new object he
he passes it between his hands he shakes it for
see if it sounds you bounce the floor to see
what happens what smells gets in his mouth
he explores it literally with the five
senses
think in the classrooms the classrooms
concept are not places of exploration
they are places of reproduction of
knowledge we have taken from them
children and young people the opportunity to
explore and learn with your five
senses this is the first challenge that I
I see and that I think we have to work
about it
number 2 super important allow and
Above all applaud the mistakes
to make a mistake to screw up is to
best way to learn
when I make a mistake I correct when I
I learn wrong I realize that
something I did wrong the educational system puts
the best grades of the
better grades of those students
who memorized the perfect content and
not to the students who were pulled
that cost them that they had to repeat and
that they finally got the homework
we have to start paying attention to
process and not only the result
final
and number 3 give space for
creativity
and for the imagination you go to a center
childish when children are very
and you see a child playing with
a box and feel that it is in a ship
space or is riding a horse or
It’s on a tire and he thinks
is driving the truth we say what
beautiful my love uses the imagination
how spectacular the imagination that
they have the little children you pass to the
primary and in primary you tell him no longer
you have to use the boxes to
certain uses the tires for certain
uses the certain thing this is how they are used
officially
you go to high school it ‘s even worse the
creative are only those people who
they are good for drawing to paint or
who have some physical talent is not
true a talent to draw and it’s not
so we are all creative people
intrinsically and what we have to
motivate is that students who are
in high school they do not feel
creative people feel creative in front
how they come to welcome their opportunities
to how they face the things that
they have to be unknown to new
challenges that’s where one has to be
creative in how it solves the things of
daily life
and the worst of all in the whole process
early childhood education primary and secondary
we completely take away the freedom
creative to teachers
the curriculum is done from the ninth
education ministry floor and you will be
passes a booklet to the teacher when the
teacher is the one who knows their
students who know their community and
who has the ability or should have
the ability to precede their
interests of catching local things is not
true and use them for the process of
learning are they who have to
have creative freedom
what I have told you is not new
surely I’ve heard it before
difficult is to put it into action
this is the shakespeare experience is
one of the activities that we promote
within one of our programs of
the 21 in shakespeare experience these
They are photos of a school called San

can have fun at school that
important because we separate the fun

the students had freedom
creative the central theme of the td I exposed
it’s creative freedom and the system
educational lacks that creative freedom
at all levels and particularly I return to
