www.ted.com Designer Emily Pilloton moved to rural Bertie County, in North Carolina, to engage in a bold experiment of design-led community transformation. She's teaching a design-build class called Studio H that engages high schoolers' minds and bodies while bringing smart design and new opportunities to the poorest county in the state.

I just saw her have a presentation for my design class here at UC Davis. Pretty awesome!

This is really great project, I come from a rural area myself and I would have loved to have something like this in place when I was growing up.

Brilliant in its simplicity of purpose and engaging the community from the ground up through young people. As Leonardo De Vinci said "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."

@SayChickpeas 13 лет назад

@TheDentist27 The value of being engaged in learning vastly dwarfs the value of any money paid for achievement. Lectures are not an engaging learning style for young people, recorded lectures even less so. Hands-on involvement and practical applications of principals nurture the playful spirit which young people thrive upon. That cannot be replaced by a check. This TED talk is a great example of how to help youth be invested in their own achievements by adding value to their communities.

@notme222 I completely agree, if you live in a big city, with a huge population of teachers, then sure, certification can be great as a sort of filtering method. But for these small cities where they would take just about any teacher they could find, it just makes it more difficult. Not to mention the cost of schooling and how that little city can't even really pay enough for a teacher to pay off student loans.

This type of thing should be done everywhere!

A good series of talks lately. I hope TED can keep up this momentum.

AWESOOOOOOME! No words... It's all i need to start my project to design the education... We need that... We need to finish the social inequality...

@sdrawkcabnipyt 13 лет назад

@6:20 notice how close this is to another acronym you know? That wasn't by chance.

@gulllars 13 лет назад

@Aresftfun agreed. Calling them by an approximation to skin color, or if first or second generation immigrants by their family's origin country/continent makes more sense. Fear of racism makes people use words that are unnatural and ridiculus. With regards to the pictures in the book, it makes a lot more sense to refer to the students as black and white. While it's not literary or politically correct, it's coloqually instantly understandable, and a lot easier to work with.

@mmballa And averagely the default usage in speaking is to call them "African American" in courts and news and other formal areas, while most of the Black population prefers to be called black or just that no one is labeled by their skin color.

@DonAnonimus 13 лет назад

Freakin' love this design!

@thewinematcher 13 лет назад

@Aresftfun there's still a need for people to distinguish others based not only on physical traits but also on color. Since some people think Black isn't p.c, then they use African American, even when the person isn't of African descent. I think it's pathetic that we still find the need to distinguish between humans, and I don't think there's a problem describing someone as "black", or as "red-headed" because those physically describe a person. African-american doesn't help me much.

@TheDentist27 13 лет назад

@SayChickpeas that's a separate issue, tutoring. I'm not against that. I am against a teacher standing infront of the room for an hour talking to him or herself. I went through many, many, years of it.

@vkomma 13 лет назад

Am I wrong in assuming that this model worked because it was a small city and mainly because the people were open to experimentation. The parents didnt mind about the creative way in which education was delivered and ofcourse as she says "..creating the conditions under which change is possible.", Bertie community has an ecosystem that accepts change, may be perhaps thanks to Dr. Z and the students are being educated by the sense of a purpose of giving back to the community which is... Cool!!

@sobrevida157 4 года назад

kommaV Sadly the model did not work. If you watch the documentary “if you build it “you’ll see what really happened. It’s very sad. To see all the hope she had in this TEDTalk get squandered.

@@sobrevida157 From what I know of her, she and her partner learned from the experience and moved on. I will look for that doc too thanks.

@sukanasturtle 13 лет назад

wow, if you just look past the race comments she made (which i know she had no bad intentions of), this talk is amazing

@TheEyesOfNye 13 лет назад

@Aresftfun But they did come from Africa, maybe not them personally but their ancestors did. In fact we're all African-somethings, we all come from East Africa. Besides it's just semantics, why do people get so worked up over it? "They're not black they're African-American!" "They're not African-America, they're black!" 'No one is 'black' they're brown!" It's like give it a rest, we know what you all mean.

@Aresftfun 13 лет назад

@andresico2 I completely agree.

@TheDiscoMole 13 лет назад

That's what a school is supposed to look like

@happycline 13 лет назад

@Aresftfun relax, I know what you mean, and I agree with you, but it's just a polite way of saying "black/dark skinned people"

@notme222 13 лет назад

12:45: "Arduous and totally convoluted process of getting certified as high school teachers". - Does that maybe seem like a problem? Not to get political but the "Left" solution always seems to be "spend money to make graphics and build pretty things" - which is what they did here. And sometimes infrastructure needs are real. But those same people tend to mock the Conservate point that bureaucracy often gets in the way. Yet clearly... Anyway, nice talk but it needs more takeaway. B-

@Aresftfun 13 лет назад

@mmballa And what about the side of white heritage? Should they not be called European-African-American? Or Anglo-African-American? Is it unneeded for there to be a European show of respect because Africa needs it? What is the requirement for having a continent in your label?

@Aresftfun 13 лет назад

@PisicutaSiMatei I know but that's the point. An black person could have ancestors from Ireland and be called "African-American" which would be politically incorrect, and the whole stature of political correctness is very silly.

@WorldlyMusi 13 лет назад

Wow. America sounds like Africa... (especially that tire play ground design) What a sad world

@bleekhorizon 13 лет назад

@Aresftfun all she did was pick a phrase she felt was unoffensive. comments like this only distract people from the message of the lecture.

@Aresftfun 13 лет назад

@TheEyesOfNye So don't want anyone to talk about problems and silly things with society? please

@matthewbustamonte9147 11 лет назад

If that's what you got out of this video I'd guess your own education was sorely lacking. Perhaps you could have used a little more physical engagement with some worn-out tires.

this had nothing to do with design but good job anyways

@TheDentist27 13 лет назад

Simple solution to education: 1. Pay students for passing the tests. 2. Record lectures so you're not wasting money on repetitive lecturing 3. Used the saved money in 2. for 1.

@Aresftfun 13 лет назад

@mmballa No, I'm simply guessing her lineage. I deplore racism.

@folkmonkey 11 лет назад

Looked into this to see how the project was progressing. WOW this was a sham!!!! This program squandered all of the funding in a year, the speaker left "teaching" in Bertie for Berkley and Dr.Z resigned and works in Texas now. Also they failed to mention anything about the numerous other organizations and programs that were already in place in Bertie. Including a college prep program magnet school, and Teach For America has been down there for years. SHAM
