Introduction (引言)
[BLANK_AUDIO]
Welcome to our MOOC blended learning. 欢迎来到我们的混合式学习系统。And thanks for joining us.并感谢您的加入。 If you've already watched our intro video for this course, then this might be a little bit repetitive for you, 如果你已经看过我们介绍本课程的视频，那么你可能觉得这有点重复。but bear with us because we're trying to make sure everyone is starting from the same place. 但是请原谅我们只想确保每个人的起点都是相同的。What we're interested in this class is high quality blended learning. 在这个课程中我们感兴趣的是高质量的混合式学习。How to do it really really well to make it student centered. Which is dramatically different from today's education system that's built like a factory to treat all students the same. 如何去做才能以学生为中心，这与目前教育系统中像建立工厂一样一视同仁地对待所有的学生有着明显的不同。
>> So, look, this is a buzzword, and we know that. Blended learning. 所以，看，我们都知道，这是一个时髦的术语---混合式学习。For us, this is not about promoting it simply as a silver bullet. 对我们来说，这不单单是把它作为一个银色子弹来推进。This is not going to fix everything in our world. But we do think this is a very strong potential game changer in education. 它不会修正世界上的每件事情，但是我们真的认为它会成为教育系统一个潜在的强大的游戏规则改变者。This is different than previous ed techmov, movements, though. 这和以前的教育改革是截然不同的。Because it's not just about the tech. It's about redesigning classrooms and schools from the ground up. 因为它不仅仅是技术的改革，还要重新设计教室和学校的基础设施。To better meet the needs of every individual learner. 是为了更好地满足每个人的学习需要。
>> So, let's introduce who we are. 现在，让我们来介绍一下自己。I'm Robert Schwartz. I'm senior advisor of the new Teacher Center. 我是罗伯特施瓦兹。我是新教师中心的高级顾问。The New Teacher Center is a leading provider of pro, project, products and services for beginning teacher development. 新教师中心是一家为新教师发展提供领先产品和服务项目的机构。I've been a teacher, a principle, a chief academic officer in both charter and public schools.我曾经在特许公立学校当过老师、校长和首席学术官。
>> I'm Michael Horn and I'm the Executive Director of the Education Practice at the Clayton Christensen Institute.我是迈克尔豪恩，克莱顿克里斯坦森学院的教育实践执行董事。 We're a non profit think tank focused on innovation and education.我们是一个专注于创新与教育的非盈利性质的智囊团。 And we've been researching the blended learning fields since it's early days. 我们早期就已经在研究混合式学习的领域。
>> And I'm Brian Greenberg from the Silicon Schools Fund. 我是来自硅谷学校的布瑞恩格林伯格。We are a foundation that makes grants on the cutting edge of the blended learning movement. 我们是一个走在混合式学习运动前端的基金会。And I've been an in the trenches educator as a teacher, principal, running a network of charter schools, as well as working in the district setting. 我一直是教育者战壕中的老师、校长，也曾经负责一个特许学校的网络运营，同时也负责区域设置。
>> So in this course, we're going to focus on blended learning that truly personalizes for each student.所以，在这个课程中，我们将重点研究基于每个学生个性化的混合式学习。 That means meeting each student where they are with any activity that they need when they need it, be it group instruction, private tutoring, online simulation or learning, whatever the situation requires to meet that child's learning needs. 这就意味着无论在任何情况下，都要满足每个学生在集体教学、私人课外辅导、在线模拟活动中的学习需求。The second thing we're really going to focus on in this course is what we call mastery based learning.在这个课程中我们注重的第二件事就是基于掌握基础的学习。 And mastery learning, which is also called competency based learning or proficiency based learning, is a really important concept. 精熟学习，也叫做基于能力的学习或者是能力为基础的学习。这是一个重要的概念。The big idea here is that students move on once they've mastered a concept. 这个思想在于一旦学生掌握了一个概念，他就可以继续前进。
>> Michael and Brian are clearly the experts in blended learning. 迈克尔和布瑞恩显然是混合式学习方面的专家。What I'm here to do is help break down the assignments for you, and apply what you're learning from the videos. 我在这里所要做的事情就是帮助你们划分任务，以及为你们提供录像中的学习内容。
[BLANK_AUDIO].
We do believe strongly in mastery based education. So if you believe that you can complete the assignments without the videos and other resources, go for it. Just skip ahead.我们坚信精熟教育，所以如果你认为自己可以不借助录像和其它资源也能完成任务的话，就直接跳过前面的部分。 In fact, we've tried to design the course as much as possible to facilitate that by putting the quiz, quizzes and the assignments up front.事实上，我们曾经尝试着在设计课程时，尽可能多地把测验和作业放在前面以便更好地促进课程。 In fact, we even put the final assignment up front already.事实上，我们甚至把最后的任务也已经放在前面了。 So all you need to go is go to the assignment page, and read it. And see if you can already tackle it.因此你们要做的就是直接去读任务分配页，检测自己是否已经能够解决。
>> But it's okay if you don't already know everything there is to know about blended learning, and can already tackle that final assignment.如果你不能弄明白关于混合式学习的每件事情，却已经能够解决最后的作业，那也没关系。 In fact, we've built this course to scaffold and deliver the information to you. 事实上，我们建立本课程的目的在于为你提供支架并传递信息给你。That you'll need not only to know a lot about blended learning but to put it into practice in your context.你们不仅需要知道很多关于混合式学习的知识，还要将它付诸于实践。
>> So enough of our long introduction. 我们做了很长的引言与介绍。Let's tackle this idea of high quality blended learning, and we'll do that in our next segment and with our first assignment.让我们来解决这种高质量的混合式学习。我们将在下一个环节来完成第一个任务。
