But what if we embraced technology, embraced the millennial generation's natural predilections,

So here's what we can do. So rather than driving our kids into a classroom, herding them out there at 8 o'clock in the morning
这就是我们能够做到的。与其把孩子送进教室，让他们在早上8点钟赶到教室，
I hated going to class at 8 o'clock in the morning, so why are we forcing our kids to do that?
我以前就讨厌在早上8点钟上课，所以我们为什么要强迫孩子们这样做呢？
So instead what you do is you have them watch videos and do interactive exercises in the comfort of their dorm rooms, in their bedroom,
倒不如让他们观看视频，做互动性的练习，在舒适的宿舍、卧室、
in the dining room, in the bathroom, wherever they're most creative.
餐厅、浴室，以及任何使他们最具创造力的场所。
Then they come into the classroom for some in-person interaction. They can have discussions amongst themselves.
然后他们再来到教室，在人与人之间做一些真实的互动。他们可以相互讨论。
They can solve problems together. They can work with the professor and have the professor answer their questions.

Two high school teachers at the Sant High School in Mongolia had flipped their classroom,

where the learners in the high school, 15-year-olds, mind you,
这所高中的学生要知道，15岁的学生
would go and do these things in their own homes and they would come into class,
会在自己的家园做这些，会进入课堂，
and as you see from this image here, they would interact with each other and do some physical laboratory work.
就像你看到的这幅图片，他们彼此进行交流，做一些物理实验。
And the only way we discovered this was they wrote a blog and we happened to stumble upon that blog.
我们发现这些的唯一途径就是通过他们写的博客，我们碰巧发现了这个博客。
