「我們最重要的基礎建設就是受教育的頭腦」，突尼西亞的前政府部長愛美 · 卡爾布如是說。但通常，大型投資的對象都是比較顯而易見的計畫，比如造橋或建路。然而，更美好的未來要靠我們的孩童的頭腦來創造。在這場充滿洞見的演說中，她分享了可行的方案，來確保每個孩童都能就學，並學到知識 —— 且在一個世代內就達成。

一個大膽的領導決策
造就了如今的我。
造就了如今的我。
00:16
After 1956, when Tunisia
became independent,
became independent,
1
4920
3976
1956 年之後，突尼西亞獨立，
00:20
our first president, Habib Bourguiba,
2
8920
2736
我們的第一任總統哈比卜 · 布爾吉巴
00:23
decided to invest 20 percent
of the country's national budget
of the country's national budget
3
11680
3856
決定將國家預算的 20%
投資在教育上。
00:27
in education.
4
15560
1576
00:29
Yes, 20 percent,
5
17160
1576
是的，20%，
00:30
on the high end of the spectrum
even by today's standards.
even by today's standards.
6
18760
3160
即使用現今的標準來看，
也是相當高的比例。
也是相當高的比例。
00:34
Some people protested.
7
22480
1896
有些人提出抗議。
00:36
What about infrastructure?
8
24400
1696
基礎建設怎麼辦？
00:38
What about electricity,
roads and running water?
roads and running water?
9
26120
3016
電力、道路、自來水怎麼辦？
00:41
Are these not important?
10
29160
1360
這些不重要嗎？
00:44
I would argue
11
32159
1457
我會爭辯說：
00:45
that the most important
infrastructure we have are minds,
infrastructure we have are minds,
12
33640
3680
我們最重要的基礎建設是頭腦，
00:50
educated minds.
13
38360
1280
受過教育的頭腦。
00:53
President Bourguiba helped establish
free, high-quality education

14
41280

布爾吉巴總統協助建立了
免費且高品質的教育，
免費且高品質的教育，
00:59
for every boy and every girl.
15
47520
2320
提供給所有男孩與女孩。
01:03
And together with millions
of other Tunisians,
of other Tunisians,
16
51760
3056
我和其他數百萬的突尼西亞人
01:06
I'm deeply indebted
to that historic decision.
to that historic decision.
17
54840
2520
都深深感謝那個歷史性的決定。
01:10
And that's what brought me here today,
18
58040
2120
這也是今天我會在這裡的原因，
01:13
because today, we are facing
a global learning crisis.
a global learning crisis.
19
61280
3920
因為現今，我們正面臨
全球學習危機。
全球學習危機。
01:17
I call it learning crisis
and not education crisis,
and not education crisis,
20
65840
3336
我稱之為「學習危機」，
而不是「教育危機」，
而不是「教育危機」，
01:21
because on top of
the quarter of a billion children
the quarter of a billion children
21
69200
2936
因為現今，不僅有 2.5 億個孩童
01:24
who are out of school today,
22
72160
1600
沒能接受學校教育，
01:26
even more, 330 million children,
23
74800
4056
但更多的是，共 3.3 億個孩童，
01:30
are in school but failing to learn.
24
78880
2800
正接受學校教育，卻沒能學到知識。
01:35
And if we do nothing,
25
83760
1816
如果我們無動於衷，
01:37
if nothing changes,
26
85600
1656
如果我們任其發展，
01:39
by 2030, just 13 years from now,
27
87280
3976
到 2030 年，僅僅 13 年後，
01:43
half of the world's children and youth,
28
91280
3536
世界上有一半的孩童和青少年，
01:46
half of 1.6 billion children and youth,
29
94840
4056
也就是說，16 億
孩童和青少年中有一半，
孩童和青少年中有一半，
01:50
will be either out of school
or failing to learn.
or failing to learn.
30
98920
2840
不是輟學，就是沒能學習。
01:58
So two years ago,
I joined the Education Commission.
I joined the Education Commission.
31
106240
3816
兩年前，我加入了教育委員會。
02:02
It's a commission brought together
by former UK Prime Minister
by former UK Prime Minister
32
110080
3736
這個委員會是由前英國首相
以及聯合國全球教育特使
高登 · 布朗所促成的。
高登 · 布朗所促成的。
02:05
and UN Special Envoy
for Global Education Gordon Brown.
for Global Education Gordon Brown.
33
113840
2920
我們的第一個任務是要去了解：
02:09
Our first task was to find out:
34
117960
2056
02:12
How big is the learning crisis?
35
120040
1656
學習危機有多大？
02:13
What's actually the scope of the problem?
36
121720
1960
問題真正的規模多大？
02:16
Today we know:
37
124840
1456
現在我們知道：
02:18
half of the world's children by 2030
38
126320
3176
到 2030 年，世界上一半的孩童
02:21
will be failing to learn.
39
129520
1320
將會無法學習。
因此我們才發現
02:24
And that's how actually we discovered
40
132000
1936
我們得把世界的焦點從
「給予教育」轉到「學到知識」，
「給予教育」轉到「學到知識」，
02:25
that we need to change the world's focus
from schooling to learning,
from schooling to learning,
41
133960
4696
02:30
from just counting
how many bodies are in classrooms
how many bodies are in classrooms
42
138680
2736
與其計算有多少人在教室當中，
02:33
to actually how many are learning.
43
141440
1680
不如觀察實際有多少人在學習。
02:36
And the second big task was,
44
144320
2000
第二個大任務是，
02:39
can we do anything about this?
45
147520
1440
對此，我們能否做點什麼？
02:41
Can we do anything
about this big, vast, silent,
about this big, vast, silent,
46
149760
3416
對於這個巨大、廣闊、無聲，
可能還是最受忽視的國際危機，
我們能否做點什麼？
我們能否做點什麼？
02:45
maybe most-neglected international crisis?
47
153200
2880
02:48
And what we found out is, we can.
48
156640
3176
結果發現，我們可以做到。
02:51
It's actually amazing.
49
159840
1560
其實十分令人吃驚。
02:54
We can, for the first time,
50
162000
2176
有史以來第一次，我們可以
02:56
have every child in school and learning
51
164200
3616
讓每個孩童都能上學並學習，
02:59
within just one generation.
52
167840
2360
且在一世代內就達成。
03:03
And we don't even have to really
invent the wheel to do so.
invent the wheel to do so.
53
171840
2800
我們甚至不用大費周章，就能做到。
03:07
We just need to learn
from the best in class,
from the best in class,
54
175600
3136
我們只需要向相同水準中
表現最優秀的國家學習，
表現最優秀的國家學習，
03:10
but not any best in class --
55
178760
2296
但並不是指任何世界上
最優秀的國家 ——
最優秀的國家 ——
03:13
the best in your own class.
56
181080
1800
而是與自己水準相同，
但表現最優秀的國家。
但表現最優秀的國家。
03:16
What we did is actually
we looked at countries by income level:
we looked at countries by income level:
57
184200
3736
實際上，我們根據國家的
收入水準進行了調查，
收入水準進行了調查，
03:19
low-income, mid-income, high-income.
58
187960
2736
包括低收入、中收入、高收入。
03:22
We looked at what the 25 percent
fastest improvers in education do,
fastest improvers in education do,
59
190720
4240
我們研究：在前 25% 教育水平提升
最明顯的國家裡，有哪些舉措？
最明顯的國家裡，有哪些舉措？
03:27
and what we found out is
60
195760
1896
而我們的發現是，
03:29
that if every country moves
at the same rate as the fastest improvers
at the same rate as the fastest improvers
61
197680
4496
如果每一個國家，與同等
收入水準的其他國家相比，
收入水準的其他國家相比，
其發展速度都能和那些
進步最快的國家一樣，
進步最快的國家一樣，
03:34
within their own income level,
62
202200
2456
03:36
then within just one generation
63
204680
2376
只要在一世代之內，
03:39
we can have every child
in school and learning.
in school and learning.
64
207080
2680
我們就能讓每個孩童
都能上學並學習。
都能上學並學習。
03:43
Let me give you an example.
65
211880
2096
讓我舉個例子。
03:46
Let's take Tunisia for example.
66
214000
1936
以突尼西亞為例。
03:47
We're not telling Tunisia,
"You should move as fast as Finland."
"You should move as fast as Finland."
67
215960
3776
我們不會如此要求突尼西亞：
「你要趕上芬蘭的發展速度。」
「你要趕上芬蘭的發展速度。」
03:51
No disrespect, Finland.
68
219760
1936
我對芬蘭沒任何不敬之意。
03:53
We're telling Tunisia,
69
221720
1376
我們會這樣要求突尼西亞：
03:55
"Look at Vietnam."
70
223120
1336
「看看越南。」
03:56
They spend similar amounts
for primary and secondary pupils
for primary and secondary pupils
71
224480
4336
它在小學和中學學子身上的花費
04:00
as percentage of GDP per capita,
72
228840
2296
差不多等於人均 GDP，
04:03
but achieves today higher results.
73
231160
1840
但在如今取得了很好的成果。
04:06
Vietnam introduced a standardized
assessment for literacy and numeracy,
assessment for literacy and numeracy,
74
234440
3880
越南針對讀寫能力和計算能力，
推出一種標準化評估，
推出一種標準化評估，
04:11
teachers in Vietnam are better monitored
than in other developing countries,
than in other developing countries,
75
239120
4736
和其他開發中國家相比，
越南的老師會受到良好的監督，
越南的老師會受到良好的監督，
04:15
and students' achievements
are made public.
are made public.
76
243880
2600
並且學生的成績會被公開。
04:20
And it shows in the results.
77
248000
1520
該成果在最後得以體現。
04:22
In the 2015 PISA --
78
250160
1936
在 2015 PISA 中 ——
04:24
Program for International
Student Assessment --
Student Assessment --
79
252120
2656
也就是國際學生能力評量計劃，
04:26
Vietnam outperformed
many wealthy economies,
many wealthy economies,
80
254800
2816
越南的表現優於許多富裕國家，
04:29
including the United States.
81
257640
1879
包括美國。
04:33
Now, if you're not an education expert,
82
261680
3016
如果你不是教育專家，
你可能會問：「這又有
什麼了不起的地方？
什麼了不起的地方？
04:36
you may ask, "What's new and different?
83
264720
1936
04:38
Don't all countries track student progress
and make those achievements public?"
and make those achievements public?"
84
266680
4440
不是所有國家都會追蹤學生進展
且把那些成績公開嗎？」
且把那些成績公開嗎？」
04:44
No. The sad answer is no.
85
272040
2936
不是。很遺憾，答案是否定的。
04:47
We are very far from it.
86
275000
1560
且還差很遠。
04:49
Only half of the developing countries
87
277400
2496
只有一半的開發中國家
04:51
have systematic learning assessment
at primary school,
at primary school,
88
279920
3016
有針對小學做系統化的學習評估，
04:54
and even less so
at lower secondary school.
at lower secondary school.
89
282960
2920
針對國中的就更少了。
04:59
So if we don't know
90
287080
3256
所以，如果我們不知道
05:02
if children are learning,
91
290360
1696
孩童是否有在學習，
05:04
how are teachers supposed to focus
their attention on delivering results,
their attention on delivering results,
92
292080
3936
老師們要如何集中精力取得成效？
05:08
and how are countries supposed
to prioritize education spending
to prioritize education spending
93
296040
3576
國家為了取得成效，
要如何優先考慮教育支出？
05:11
actually to delivering results,
94
299640
1496
05:13
if they don't know
if children are learning?
if children are learning?
95
301160
2080
如果他們不知道
孩童是否有在學習的話？
孩童是否有在學習的話？
05:16
That's why the first big transformation
96
304600
3856
那就是為什麼，在做投資之前，
05:20
before investing
97
308480
1776
第一個重大轉變
05:22
is to make the education system
deliver results.
deliver results.
98
310280
3200
是要讓教育體制能夠取得成效。
05:27
Because pouring more money
into broken systems
into broken systems
99
315160
3736
因為，把更多錢投入崩壞的體制中，
05:30
may only fund more inefficiencies.
100
318920
1920
可能只會讓效益更差。
05:34
And what deeply worries me --
101
322240
1816
而我深深擔心的是 ——
05:36
if children go to school and don't learn,
102
324080
3216
如果孩童去上學卻沒有在學習，
05:39
it devalues education,
103
327320
1736
會貶低教育的價值，
05:41
and it devalues spending on education,
104
329080
2176
會貶損在教育上的花費，
05:43
so that governments
and political parties can say,
and political parties can say,
105
331280
2696
這麼一來，政府和政治黨派就能說：
05:46
"Oh, we are spending
so much money on education,
so much money on education,
106
334000
2256
「喔，我們花了那麼多錢在教育上，
但孩童都沒在學習。
05:48
but children are not learning.
107
336280
1456
他們沒有掌握技能。
05:49
They don't have the right skills.
108
337760
1976
05:51
Maybe we should spend less."
109
339760
1680
也許我們該減少花費。」
05:54
Now, improving current
education systems to deliver results
education systems to deliver results
110
342080
4616
改善教育體制來取得
成效的確很重要，
成效的確很重要，
05:58
is important, but won't be enough.
111
346720
2080
但光這樣並不夠。
06:02
What about countries where
we won't have enough qualified teachers?
we won't have enough qualified teachers?
112
350000
3176
沒有足夠合格老師的國家該怎麼辦？
06:05
Take Somalia, for example.
113
353200
1256
以索馬利亞為例。
06:06
If every student in Somalia
became a teacher --
became a teacher --
114
354480
3016
如果索馬利亞的
每個學生都成為老師 ——
每個學生都成為老師 ——
06:09
every person who finishes
tertiary education became a teacher --
tertiary education became a teacher --
115
357520
3096
每個完成大學教育的
學生都成為老師 ——
學生都成為老師 ——
06:12
we won't have enough teachers.
116
360640
1429
還是沒有足夠的老師。
06:16
And what about children in refugee camps,
117
364160
3056
在難民營的孩童又要怎麼辦？
06:19
or in very remote rural areas?
118
367240
2000
或非常偏遠地區的孩童？
06:22
Take Filipe, for example.
119
370280
1440
以菲利普為例，
06:24
Filipe lives in one
of the thousands of communities
of the thousands of communities
120
372480
3216
他生活在亞馬遜河沿岸
06:27
alongside the Amazonas rivers.
121
375720
2000
數千個社區之中的一個。
06:30
His village of 78 people has 20 families.
122
378400
3280
他所在的村落
有 78 個人，20 個家庭。
有 78 個人，20 個家庭。
06:34
Filipe and a fellow student
123
382680
1816
2015 年，菲利普與他的
一位同學升上 11 年級，
一位同學升上 11 年級，
06:36
were the only two
attending grade 11 in 2015.
attending grade 11 in 2015.
124
384520
3080
他們是該年級唯一的兩個人。
06:41
Now, the Amazonas is a state
in the northwest of Brazil.
in the northwest of Brazil.
125
389080
4016
亞馬遜州位在巴西的西北邊。
06:45
It's four and a half times
the size of Germany,
the size of Germany,
126
393120
2616
大小是德國的 4.5 倍，
06:47
and it's fully covered
in jungle and rivers.
in jungle and rivers.
127
395760
2280
完全被叢林和河流覆蓋。
06:51
A decade ago, Filipe
and his fellow student
and his fellow student
128
399120
2816
十年前，菲利普和他的這位同學
06:53
would have had just two alternatives:
129
401960
1800
只有兩個選擇：
06:57
moving to Manaus, the capital,
or stopping studying altogether,
or stopping studying altogether,
130
405000
4176
搬到首都瑪瑙斯，
或是完全放棄讀書。
或是完全放棄讀書。
07:01
which most of them did.
131
409200
1240
大部分的人會選後者。
07:04
In 2009, however, Brazil passed a new law
132
412600
3416
然而，2009 年，
巴西通過了一項新法律，
巴西通過了一項新法律，
07:08
that made secondary education
a guarantee for every Brazilian
a guarantee for every Brazilian
133
416040
4536
保證每個巴西人都可以
受到中學教育，
受到中學教育，
07:12
and an obligation for every state
to implement this by 2016.
to implement this by 2016.
134
420600

各州有義務在 2016 年前實施。
但在亞馬遜州要讓人們

you know, in the Amazonas state,
is huge and expensive.

07:23
How are you going to get, you know,
math and science and history teachers
math and science and history teachers
137
431560
3456
要如何讓數學、理化、歷史老師
07:27
all over those communities?
138
435040
1336
到那些社區去？
07:28
And even if you find them,
139
436400
1616
即使能找到老師，
07:30
many of them would not want to move there.
140
438040
2040
許多老師可能也不願搬去那裡。
07:33
So faced with this impossible task,
141
441440
2536
面對這個不可能的任務，
07:36
civil servants and state officials

公務員和州政府官員
07:38
developed amazing creativity
and entrepreneurship.

發展出了驚人的創意和企業家精神。
他們發展出了「媒體中心」解決方案。

They developed the media center solution.
144
450120
1976
07:44
It works this way.
145
452120

它是這樣運作的。

08:19
Now, why is this division
155
487440
1936
為什麼將函授老師
和輔導老師分開很重要？
和輔導老師分開很重要？
08:21
between content teacher
and tutoring teacher important?
and tutoring teacher important?
156
489400
3600
08:26
First of all, as I told you,
because in many countries,
because in many countries,
157
494600
2616
首先，我剛有說過，
因為在許多國家，
因為在許多國家，
08:29
we just don't have
enough qualified teachers.
enough qualified teachers.
158
497240
2656
就是沒有足夠的合格老師。
08:31
But secondly also because
teachers do too many things
teachers do too many things
159
499920
3296
第二個理由是，老師們要做太多
他們沒有受過訓練的事，
或是不該由他們做的事。
或是不該由他們做的事。
08:35
they're either not trained for
or not supposed to do.
or not supposed to do.
160
503240
2520
08:39
Let's look at Chile, for example.
161
507040
1680
用智利當例子。
08:41
In Chile, for every doctor,
162
509560
2136
在智利，平均每一位醫生，
08:43
you have four and a half people,
163
511720
1935
會有 4.5 個人，
08:45
four and a half staff supporting them,
164
513679
2081
也就是 4.5 個職員來協助他們，
08:48
and Chile is on the low end
of the spectrum here,
of the spectrum here,
165
516520
5336
而智利的情況在眾多
國家中算是相當糟的，
國家中算是相當糟的，
08:53
because in developing countries,
on average, every doctor
on average, every doctor
166
521880
2736
因為在開發中國家，平均每一位醫生
08:56
has 10 people supporting them.
167
524640
1600
會有 10 個人協助他們。
08:59
A teacher in Chile, however,
168
527720
1936
然而，在智利，每一位老師
09:01
has less than half a person,
169
529680
2736
只有不到 0.5 個人 ——
09:04
0.3 persons, supporting them.
170
532440
2600
只有 0.3 個人來協助他們。
09:08
Imagine a hospital ward
with 20, 40, 70 patients
with 20, 40, 70 patients
171
536360
4376
想像一間醫院的病房，
有 20、40、70 名病人，
有 20、40、70 名病人，
09:12
and you have a doctor
doing it all by themselves:
doing it all by themselves:
172
540760
3056
只有一位醫生包辦所有事；
09:15
no nurses, no medical assistants,
173
543840
2416
沒有護士，沒有醫療助理，
09:18
no one else.
174
546280
1200
沒有其他人。
09:20
You will say this is
absurd and impossible,
absurd and impossible,
175
548360
2336
你會說這很荒唐且不可能，
09:22
but this is what teachers are doing
all over the world every day
all over the world every day
176
550720
3496
但現在全世界老師的情況就是如此，
09:26
with classrooms of 20, 40, or 70 students.
177
554240
2720
一間教室，有 20、40、70 名學生。
09:30
So this division between content
and tutoring teachers is amazing
and tutoring teachers is amazing
178
558400
3616
所以，將函授老師
和輔導老師分開，是很棒的想法，
和輔導老師分開，是很棒的想法，
09:34
because it is changing
the paradigm of the teacher,
the paradigm of the teacher,
179
562040
2936
因為它改變了老師們工作的範式，
09:37
so that each does what they can do best
180
565000
2216
每個人都可以做他們最擅長的事，
09:39
and so that children
are not just in school
are not just in school
181
567240
2216
所以孩童不只是待在學校，
09:41
but in school and learning.
182
569480
1600
他們待在學校並學習知識。
09:44
And some of these content teachers,
183
572640
1936
有些函授老師
09:46
they became celebrity teachers.
184
574600
2176
變成了明星老師。
09:48
You know, some of them run for office,
185
576800
1856
當中有些人參加競選，
09:50
and they helped raise
the status of the profession
the status of the profession
186
578680
2816
他們協助提升了這個職業的地位，
09:53
so that more students
wanted to become teachers.
wanted to become teachers.
187
581520
2400
讓更多學生想要成為老師。
09:57
And what I love about this example
188
585960
2016
我之所以青睞這個事例，
10:00
is beyond changing
the paradigm of the teacher.
the paradigm of the teacher.
189
588000
3376
不僅僅是因為它改變了
老師們工作的範式。
老師們工作的範式。
10:03
It teaches us how we can harness
technology for learning.
technology for learning.
190
591400
3000
它啓示我們如何利用科技來學習。
10:07
The live-streaming is bidirectional,
191
595400
2376
直播是相互的，
所以像菲利普或其他學生
也可以向函授老師回傳訊息。
也可以向函授老師回傳訊息。
10:09
so students like Filipe and others
can present information back.
can present information back.
192
597800
3520
10:14
And we know technology
is not always perfect.
is not always perfect.
193
602360
2856
我們知道科技並非總是完美的。
10:17
You know, state officials expect
194
605240
1576
州政府官員預期，
10:18
between five to 15 percent
of the classrooms
of the classrooms
195
606840
2096
每天有 5% 至 15% 的教室
10:20
every day to be off live-stream
196
608960
2096
直播會斷線，
10:23
because of flood, broken antennas
or internet not working.
or internet not working.
197
611080
3200
原因包括洪水、
天線故障、網路問題。
天線故障、網路問題。
10:27
And yet, Filipe is one
of over 300,000 students
of over 300,000 students
198
615160
4776
即使如此，30 多萬名學生
都受惠於「媒體中心」解決方案
都受惠於「媒體中心」解決方案
10:31
that benefited from
the media center solution
the media center solution
199
619960
2176
且得以接受小學以上的教育，
10:34
and got access to postprimary education.
200
622160
2440
而菲利普是其中之一。
10:38
This is a living example
201
626120
1856
這是個活生生的例子，
10:40
how technology is not just an add-on
202
628000
2856
說明對於學習而言，
科技不再只是附屬品，
科技不再只是附屬品，
10:42
but can be central to learning
and can help us bring school to children
and can help us bring school to children
203
630880
4616
也可以扮演中心角色，且在我們
無法將孩童送往學校的情況下，
無法將孩童送往學校的情況下，
科技能協助我們，將學校贈予孩童。
10:47
if we cannot bring children to school.
204
635520
2120
10:53
Now, I hear you.
205
641320
1456
我聽見了。
10:54
You're going to say,
206
642800
1416
你們會說：
10:56
"How are we going to implement this
all over the world?"
all over the world?"
207
644240
3216
「我們要如何在全世界
實施這個方法？」
實施這個方法？」
10:59
I've been in government myself
208
647480
1536
我自己待過政府，
11:01
and have seen how difficult it is
even to implement the best ideas.
even to implement the best ideas.
209
649040
4240
我知道，要實施即使是最絶妙的
方案，也是一件非常困難的事。
方案，也是一件非常困難的事。
11:06
So as a commission,
we started two initiatives
we started two initiatives
210
654240
2896
所以，我們委員會
開始進行兩項計畫，
開始進行兩項計畫，
11:09
to make the "Learning
Generation" a reality.
Generation" a reality.
211
657160
2240
讓「學習世代」能夠實現。
11:12
The first one is called
the Pioneer Country Initiative.
the Pioneer Country Initiative.
212
660400
2600
第一個計畫叫「先鋒國家計畫」。
11:15
Over 20 countries from Africa and Asia
213
663560
2536
非洲和亞洲超過 20 個國家
11:18
have committed to make
education their priority
education their priority
214
666120
2936
都承諾要將教育視為優先工作，
11:21
and to transform their education
systems to deliver results.
systems to deliver results.
215
669080
3776
並會轉變他們的
教育體制，以取得成效。
教育體制，以取得成效。
11:24
We've trained country leaders
216
672880
1416
我們已經訓練過國家領導人，
11:26
in a methodology
called the delivery approach.
called the delivery approach.
217
674320
2776
採用了「項目交付方式」的方法論。
11:29
What this does is basically two things.
218
677120
1896
基本上要做的事情有兩件。
11:31
In the planning phase,
we take everyone into a room --
we take everyone into a room --
219
679040
3296
在規劃階段，我們把
每個人帶到一間房間 ——
每個人帶到一間房間 ——
11:34
teachers, teacher unions,
parent associations,
parent associations,
220
682360
2416
老師、老師公會、家長協會、
11:36
government officials, NGOs, everyone --
221
684800
2536
政府官員、非政府組織、每個人 ——
11:39
so that the reform
and the solution we come up with
and the solution we come up with
222
687360
2381
讓每個人都能共享並支持
11:41
are shared by everyone
and supported by everyone.
and supported by everyone.
223
689765
2440
我們提出的改革和解決方案。
11:45
And in the second phase,
224
693320
1936
第二階段，
11:47
it does something special.
225
695280
2376
要做的事很特別。
11:49
It's kind of a ruthless
focus on follow-up.
focus on follow-up.
226
697680
3240
我們近乎冷酷地
把重心放在後續行動。
把重心放在後續行動。
11:54
So week by week you check,
227
702440
2856
每一週你都要去檢查，
11:57
has that been done,
what was supposed to be done,
what was supposed to be done,
228
705320
2656
應做的事是否已經完成，
12:00
and even sometimes sending a person
physically to the district or school
physically to the district or school
229
708000
4616
有時甚至需要派人前往
該地區或學校進行實地視察，
該地區或學校進行實地視察，
12:04
to check that versus
just hoping that it happened.
just hoping that it happened.
230
712640
3960
在「當面確認」
和「一廂情願」之間進行選擇。
和「一廂情願」之間進行選擇。
很多人可能覺得這是
常理，大家都知道，
常理，大家都知道，
12:09
It may sound for many common sense,
231
717960
2416
12:12
but it's not common practice,
232
720400
1496
但它並非是大家都會做的，
12:13
and that's why actually many reforms fail.
233
721920
2160
那就是許多改革會失敗的原因。
12:18
It has been piloted in Tanzania,
234
726040
1920
坦尚尼亞已經開始帶頭做了，
12:20
and there the pass rate
for students in secondary education
for students in secondary education
235
728720
5576
在那裡，學生通過中等教育的比率，
12:26
was increased by 50 percent
in just over two years.
in just over two years.
236
734320
4080
只花了兩年多，就增加了 50%。
12:32
Now, the next initiative
to make the Learning Generation a reality
to make the Learning Generation a reality
237
740960
3576
要讓「學習世代」實現的第二個計畫
12:36
is financing. Who's going to pay for this?
238
744560
2360
就是融資。誰來付錢？
12:40
So we believe and argue
239
748040
1416
我們相信且主張，
12:41
that domestic financing has to be
the backbone of education investment.
the backbone of education investment.
240
749480
3760
教育投資的骨幹必須得是國內融資。
12:45
Do you remember when I told you
about Vietnam earlier
about Vietnam earlier
241
753680
2576
各位是否還記得我先前提過越南
12:48
outperforming the United States in PISA?
242
756280
2400
在 PISA 的表現勝過美國？
12:51
That's due to a better education system,
243
759240
2136
原因就是比較好的教育體制，
12:53
but also to Vietnam
increasing their investment
increasing their investment
244
761400
2576
也因為越南增加投資，
12:56
from seven to 20 percent
of their national budget in two decades.
of their national budget in two decades.
245
764000
3560
在 20 年間，從全國總預算的
7% 增加到 20%。
7% 增加到 20%。
13:01
But what happens if countries
want to borrow money for education?
want to borrow money for education?
246
769160
3080
但如果國家想要借錢來做教育，
會發生什麼事？
會發生什麼事？
13:04
If you wanted to borrow money
to build a bridge or a road,
to build a bridge or a road,
247
772960
3216
如果你想要借錢來造橋或建路，
13:08
it's quite easy and straightforward,
248
776200
2176
這很簡單、直接，
13:10
but not for education.
249
778400
1440
但教育就不同了。
13:12
It's easier to make a shiny picture
of a bridge and show it to everyone
of a bridge and show it to everyone
250
780680
4016
要為一座橋做張炫麗的照片
來展示給大家看比較容易，
來展示給大家看比較容易，
13:16
than one of an educated mind.
251
784720
2576
但受教育的頭腦卻很難如此展示。
13:19
That's kind of a longer term commitment.
252
787320
2120
那是一個頗為長遠的承諾。
所以我們想出了一個解決方案，
13:22
So we came up with a solution
253
790555
1381
13:23
to help countries escape
the middle income trap,
the middle income trap,
254
791960
3176
來協助一些國家逃出「中等收入陷阱」：
13:27
countries that are not poor enough
or not poor, thankfully, anymore,
or not poor, thankfully, anymore,
255
795160
4216
那些並非特別貧窮的國家，以及，
謝天謝地，不再貧窮的國家，
謝天謝地，不再貧窮的國家，
13:31
that cannot profit from grants
or interest-free loans,
or interest-free loans,
256
799400
3496
這些國家無法從撥款
或是無息貸款中獲利，
或是無息貸款中獲利，
13:34
and they're not rich enough
257
802920
1496
它們也不夠有錢，
13:36
to be able to have attractive
interests on their loans.
interests on their loans.
258
804440
2600
因此它們的貸款利率沒有吸引力。
13:39
So we're pooling donor money
in a finance facility for education,
in a finance facility for education,
259
807920
3936
所以我們用一個融資機制，
將捐贈者的錢整合，為教育做合資，
將捐贈者的錢整合，為教育做合資，
13:43
which will provide
more finance for education.
more finance for education.
260
811880
2376
這樣能提供更多資金給教育。
13:46
We will subsidize,
or even eliminate completely,
or even eliminate completely,
261
814280
3256
我們會給予補助，甚至完全免除
13:49
interest payments on the loans
262
817560
1936
貸款利息的支付，
13:51
so that countries that commit to reforms
263
819520
2296
讓承諾要改革的國家
13:53
can borrow money,
264
821840
1656
能夠借到錢，
13:55
reform their education system,
and pay this money over time
and pay this money over time
265
823520
3456
去改革它們的教育體制，
而當它們能從
而當它們能從
這更加優質的教育獲益之後，
再來支付這筆借款。
再來支付這筆借款。
