Beau Lotto + Amy O'Toole: Science is for everyone, kids included

Translator: Joseph Geni Reviewer: Morton Bast

Prevoditelj: Senzos Osijek Recezent: Suzana Baric

Beau Lotto: So, this game is very simple.

Beau Lotto: Ova je igra vrlo jednostavna.

All you have to do is read what you see. Right?

Samo morate pročitati ono što vidite. U redu?

So, I'm going to count to you, so we don't all do it together.

Brojit ću vam, tako da to ne činimo svi zajedno.

Okay, one, two, three.Audience: Can you read this?

U redu, jedan, dva, tri. Publika: Možete li ovo pročitati?

BL: Amazing. What about this one? One, two, three.Audience: You are not reading this.

BL: Odlično. A ovo? Jedan, dva, tri. Publika: Vi ne čitate ovo.

BL: All right. One, two, three. (Laughter)

BL: U redu. Jedan, dva, tri. (Smijeh)

If you were Portuguese, right? How about this one? One, two, three.

Da ste Portugalci, zar ne? A ovo? Jedan, dva, tri.

Audience: What are you reading?

Publika: Što to čitate?

BL: What are you reading? There are no words there.

BL: Što čitate? Ovdje nema riječi.

I said, read what you're seeing. Right?

Rekao sam da čitate što vidite. Zar ne?

It literally says, "Wat ar ou rea in?" (Laughter) Right?

Doslovno piše: "Št čtaš?" (Smijeh) Zar ne?

That's what you should have said. Right? Why is this?

To je ono što ste trebali reći. Zašto je tako?

It's because perception is grounded in our experience.

To je zato što se percepcija temelji na našem iskustvu.

Right? The brain takes meaningless information

Mozak uzima informacije bez značenja

and makes meaning out of it, which means we never see

i iz njih stvara značenje, što znači da mi nikad ne vidimo

what's there, we never see information,

ono što postoji, nikad ne vidimo informaciju,

we only ever see what was useful to see in the past.

već samo ono što je bilo korisno vidjeti u prošlosti.

All right? Which means, when it comes to perception,

U redu? To znači da smo, kad je riječ o percepciji,

we're all like this frog.

poput ove žabe.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

Right? It's getting information. It's generating behavior

Ona dobiva informacije. Proizvodi ponašanje

that's useful. (Laughter)

koje je korisno. (Smijeh)

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

(Video) Man: Ow! Ow! (Laughter) (Applause)

(Video) Čovjek: Au! Au! (Smijeh) (Pljesak)

BL: And sometimes, when things don't go our way,

BL: A ponekad, kad stvari ne idu kako bismo mi željeli,

we get a little bit annoyed, right?

naljutimo se, zar ne?

But we're talking about perception here, right?

Ali govorimo o percepciji.

And perception underpins everything we think, we know,

A percepcija naglašava sve što mislimo, znamo,

we believe, our hopes, our dreams, the clothes we wear,

vjerujemo, naše nade, naše snove, odjeću koju nosimo,

falling in love, everything begins with perception.

zaljubljivanje, sve počinje opažanjem.

Now if perception is grounded in our history, it means

Ako se percepcija temelji na našoj povijesti, to znači

we're only ever responding according to what we've done before.

da mi uvijek reagiramo u skladu s onime što smo činili prije.

But actually, it's a tremendous problem,

Ali to je zapravo golem problem,

because how can we ever see differently?

jer kako ćemo onda ikad moći vidjeti drukčije?

Now, I want to tell you a story about seeing differently,

Želim vam ispričati priču o gledanju na drugi način,

and all new perceptions begin in the same way.

a sve nove percepcije počinju na isti način.

They begin with a question.

Počinju pitanjem.

The problem with questions is they create uncertainty.

Problem je što pitanja stvaraju nesigurnost.

Now, uncertainty is a very bad thing. It's evolutionarily

Nesigurnost je vrlo loša. Evolucijski je loša.

a bad thing. If you're not sure that's a predator, it's too late.

Ako niste sigurni je li to grabežljivac, prekasno je.

Okay? (Laughter)

Zar ne? (Smijeh)

Even seasickness is a consequence of uncertainty.

Čak je i morska bolest posljedica nesigurnosti.

Right? If you go down below on a boat, your inner ears

Ako se spuštate na brodu, vaše unutarnje uho

are you telling you you're moving. Your eyes, because

govori vam da se krećete. A vaše oči,

it's moving in register with the boat, say I'm standing still.

jer se pomiču u skladu s brodom, govore: "Stojim na mjestu."

Your brain cannot deal with the uncertainty of that information, and it gets ill.

Vaš mozak ne može se nositi s nesigurnošću te informacije pa oboli.

The question "why?" is one of the most dangerous things you can do,

Pitanje "Zašto?" jedna je od najopasnijih stvari koje možete učiniti,

because it takes you into uncertainty.

jer vas vodi u nesigurnost.

And yet, the irony is, the only way we can ever

Ipak, ironično je da je jedini način

do anything new is to step into that space.

da učinimo nešto novo to da zakoračimo u taj prostor.

So how can we ever do anything new? Well fortunately,

Pa kako onda ikad možemo učiniti nešto novo? Na sreću,

evolution has given us an answer, right?

evolucija nam je dala odgovor, zar ne?

And it enables us to address even the most difficult

On nam omogućuje suočavanje i s najtežim pitanjima.

of questions. The best questions are the ones that create the most uncertainty.

Najbolja su pitanja ona koja stvaraju najviše nesigurnosti.

They're the ones that question the things we think to be true already. Right?

To su ona koja dovode u pitanje stvari za koje već mislimo da su istinite.

It's easy to ask questions about how did life begin,

Lako je postaviti pitanje o tome kako je počeo život

or what extends beyond the universe, but to question what you think to be true already

ili što se nalazi izvan svemira, ali dovesti u pitanje ono za što već misliš da je istina --

is really stepping into that space.

to je pravi korak u taj prostor.

So what is evolution's answer to the problem of uncertainty?

Pa, koji je odgovor evolucije na problem nesigurnosti?

It's play.

To je igra.

Now play is not simply a process. Experts in play will tell you

Igra nije samo proces. Stručnjaci za igru reći će vam

that actually it's a way of being.

da je to zapravo način života.

Play is one of the only human endeavors where uncertainty

Igra je jedna od rijetkih ljudskih radnji gdje se nesigurnost

is actually celebrated. Uncertainty is what makes play fun.

zapravo slavi. Nesigurnost igru čini zabavnom.

Right? It's adaptable to change. Right? It opens possibility,

Sposobna je za promjenu. Otvara mogućnosti

and it's cooperative. It's actually how we do our social bonding,

i kooperativna je. Tako se zapravo socijalno zbližavamo,

and it's intrinsically motivated. What that means

i intrinsično je motivirana. To znači

is that we play to play. Play is its own reward.

da se igramo kako bismo se igrali. Igra je sama sebi nagrada.

Now if you look at these five ways of being,

Ako pogledate ovih pet načina življenja,

these are the exact same ways of being you need

to su upravo isti načini življenja koje trebate

in order to be a good scientist.

da biste bili dobar znanstvenik.

Science is not defined by the method section of a paper.

Znanost se ne definira metodičnim dijelom rada.

It's actually a way of being, which is here, and this is true

Ona je način života koji je ovdje i istinit je

for anything that is creative.

za bilo što što je kreativno.

So if you add rules to play, you have a game.

Ako dodate pravila za igranje, imate igru.

That's actually what an experiment is.

I pokusi su upravo to.

So armed with these two ideas,

Naoružani ovim dvjema idejama,

that science is a way of being and experiments are play,

da je znanost način života, a da su pokusi igra,

we asked, can anyone become a scientist?

pitali smo: Može li bilo tko postati znanstvenik?

And who better to ask than 25 eight- to 10-year-old children?

Najbolje je to pitati 25 djece u dobi od osam do deset godina.

Because they're experts in play. So I took my bee arena

Jer oni su stručnjaci za igru. Tako sam odnio svoju pčelinju arenu

down to a small school in Devon, and the aim of this

u malu školu u Devonu, a cilj toga

was to not just get the kids to see science differently,

bio je ne samo pridobiti djecu da znanost vide drukčije,

but, through the process of science, to see themselves differently. Right?

već da, kroz proces znanosti, vide same sebe drukčije.

The first step was to ask a question.

Prvi je korak bio postaviti pitanje.

Now, I should say that we didn't get funding for this study

Moram reći da nismo dobili sponzorstvo za ovaj projekt

because the scientists said small children couldn't make

jer su znanstvenici rekli da mala djeca ne mogu

a useful contribution to science, and the teachers said kids couldn't do it.

dati koristan doprinos znanosti, a i učitelji su rekli isto to.

So we did it anyway. Right? Of course.

Ali ipak smo to napravili. Naravno.

So, here are some of the questions. I put them in small print

Ovo su neka od pitanja. Ispisao sam ih malim slovima

so you wouldn't bother reading it. Point is that five of the questions that the kids came up with

kako se ne biste zamarali čitanjem. Bit je u tome da je pet pitanja koja su djeca smislila

were actually the basis of science publication the last five to 15 years. Right?

bilo temelj znanstvene publikacije posljednjih pet do petnaest godina.

So they were asking questions that were significant

Postavljali su pitanja koja su bila značajna

to expert scientists.

znanstvenim stručnjacima.

Now here, I want to share the stage with someone quite special. Right?

Želio bih podijeliti pozornicu s nekim veoma posebnim.

She was one of the young people who was involved in this study,

Ona je bila jedna od mladih ljudi uključenih u ovo istraživanje

and she's now one of the youngest published scientists

i ona je sada jedna od najmlađih znanstvenika s objavljenim radom.

in the world. Right? She will now, once she comes onto stage,

Ona će sad, kad dođe na pozornicu,

will be the youngest person to ever speak at TED. Right?

biti najmlađa osoba koja je ikad govorila na TED-u.

Now, science and asking questions is about courage.

Znanost i postavljanje pitanja stvar su hrabrosti.

Now she is the personification of courage, because she's

Ona je utjelovljenje hrabrosti

going to stand up here and talk to you all.

jer će stati ovdje i govoriti svima vama.

So Amy, would you please come up? (Applause)

Amy, hoćeš li, molim te, doći gore? (Pljesak)

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

So Amy's going to help me tell the story of what we call

Amy će mi pomoći ispričati priču o

the Blackawton Bees Project, and first she's going to tell you

Projektu blackawtonskih pčela, a prvo će vam reći

the question that they came up with. So go ahead, Amy.

koje su pitanje smislili. Izvoli, Amy.

Amy O'Toole: Thank you, Beau. We thought

Amy O'Toole: Hvala, Beau. Mislili smo

that it was easy to see the link between humans and apes

kako je lako vidjeti vezu između ljudi i majmuna

in the way that we think, because we look alike.

po načinu na koji mislimo, jer izgledamo slično.

But we wondered if there's a possible link

Ali mi smo se zapitali postoji li veza

with other animals. It'd be amazing if humans and bees

s drugim životinjama. Bilo bi odlično kad bi ljudi i pčele

thought similar, since they seem so different from us.

razmišljali slično, s obzirom na to da su tako različite od nas.

So we asked if humans and bees might solve

Pitali smo mogu li ljudi i pčele rješavati

complex problems in the same way.

složene probleme na isti način.

Really, we wanted to know if bees can also adapt

Stvarno, htjeli smo znati mogu li se i pčele prilagoditi

themselves to new situations using previously learned rules

novim situacijama koristeći ranije naučena pravila

and conditions. So what if bees can think like us?

i stanja. Što ako pčele mogu misliti poput nas?

Well, it'd be amazing, since we're talking about an insect

To bi bilo odlično, budući da govorimo o kukcu

with only one million brain cells.

sa samo jednim milijunom moždanih stanica.

But it actually makes a lot of sense they should,

Ali to da bi trebale tako razmišljati zapravo ima puno smisla,

because bees, like us, can recognize a good flower

zato što pčele, kao mi, mogu prepoznati dobar cvijet

regardless of the time of day, the light, the weather,

neovisno o dobu dana, svjetlu, vremenu

or from any angle they approach it from. (Applause)

ili o kutu iz kojeg mu pristupaju. (Pljesak)

BL: So the next step was to design an experiment,

BL: Sljedeći korak bio je osmisliti pokus

which is a game. So the kids went off and they designed

koji je igra. Djeca su krenula i osmislila

this experiment, and so -- well, game -- and so,

taj pokus, odnosno igru.

Amy, can you tell us what the game was,

Amy, možeš li nam reći kakva je bila igra

and the puzzle that you set the bees?

i zagonetka koju ste pripremili pčelama?

AO: The puzzle we came up with was an if-then rule.

AO: Zagonetka koju smo smislili bila je po pravilu ako-onda.

We asked the bees to learn not just to go to a certain color,

Tražili smo od pčela da nauče ne samo da odlaze određenoj boji,

but to a certain color flower only

već i samo cvijetu određene boje

when it's in a certain pattern.

kad je u određenom uzorku.

They were only rewarded if they went to the yellow flowers

Bile su nagrađene samo ako su odlazile žutim cvjetovima

if the yellow flowers were surrounded by the blue,

koji su okruženi plavima

or if the blue flowers were surrounded by the yellow.

ili ako su plavi cvjetovi bili okruženi žutima.

Now there's a number of different rules the bees can learn

Postoji više različitih pravila koja pčele mogu naučiti

to solve this puzzle. The interesting question is, which?

kako bi riješile zagonetku. Zanimljivo pitanje jest: Koja?

What was really exciting about this project was we,

Bilo je zaista uzbudljivo što mi i Beau

and Beau, had no idea whether it would work.

nismo imali pojma hoće li projekt uspjeti.

It was completely new, and no one had done it before,

To je bilo potpuno novo i nitko to nije prije učinio,

including adults. (Laughter)

uključujući i odrasle. (Smijeh)

BL: Including the teachers, and that was really hard for the teachers.

BL: Uključujući i učitelje, a to im je teško palo.

It's easy for a scientist to go in and not have a clue what he's doing,

Lako je znanstveniku ući u nešto i nemati pojma što radi,

because that's what we do in the lab, but for a teacher

jer mi to radimo u laboratorijima, ali da učitelj

not to know what's going to happen at the end of the day --

ne zna što će se dogoditi na kraju dana...

so much of the credit goes to Dave Strudwick, who was

Mnogo zasluga ide Daveu Strudwicku

the collaborator on this project. Okay?

koji je bio suradnik na ovom projektu.

So I'm not going to go through the whole details of the study

Ja sada neću proći sve detalje istraživanja

because actually you can read about it, but the next step

zato što to možete i pročitati, ali sljedeći korak

is observation. So here are some of the students

jest opažanje. Ovdje nekoliko učenika opaža.

doing the observations. They're recording the data

Bilježe podatke o tome

of where the bees fly.

kamo pčele lete.

(Video) Dave Strudwick: So what we're going to do —Student: 5C.

(Video) Dave Strudwick: Ono što ćemo učiniti -- Učenik: 5C.

Dave Strudwick: Is she still going up here?Student: Yeah.

Dave Strudwick: Ide li još uvijek tamo gore? Učenik: Da.

Dave Strudwick: So you keep track of each.Student: Henry, can you help me here?

Dave Strudwick: Znači, prati svaku. Učenik: Henry, možeš mi pomoći?

BL: "Can you help me, Henry?" What good scientist says that, right?

BL: "Možeš li mi pomoći, Henry?" Koji će dobar znanstvenik to reći?

Student: There's two up there.

Učenik: Ovdje su dvije.

And three in here.

I ovdje tri.

BL: Right? So we've got our observations. We've got our data.

BL: Dakle, imamo svoja opažanja. Imamo svoje podatke.

They do the simple mathematics, averaging, etc., etc.

Oni rade jednostavnu matematiku, prosjek, itd., itd.

And now we want to share. That's the next step.

A sad to želimo podijeliti s drugima. To je sljedeći korak.

So we're going to write this up and try to submit this

Zapisat ćemo to sve i pokušati predati na objavljivanje.

for publication. Right? So we have to write it up.

Znači, moramo to zapisati.

So we go, of course, to the pub. All right? (Laughter)

I odlazimo, naravno, u kafić. U redu? (Smijeh)

The one on the left is mine, okay? (Laughter)

Ovaj lijevo je moj. (Smijeh)

Now, I tell them, a paper has four different sections:

Kažem im da rad ima četiri različita dijela:

an introduction, a methods, a results, a discussion.

uvod, metode, rezultate i raspravu.

The introduction says, what's the question and why?

Uvod govori koje je pitanje i zašto.

Methods, what did you do? Results, what was the observation?

Metode su ono što ste radili. Rezultati, što je opaženo.

And the discussion is, who cares? Right?

I rasprava, koga briga. Zar ne?

That's a science paper, basically. (Laughter)

To je znanstveni rad, manje-više. (Smijeh)

So the kids give me the words, right? I put it into a narrative,

Djeca su mi dala riječi. Ja sam ih samo složio u tekst,

which means that this paper is written in kidspeak.

što znači da je rad napisan dječjim govorom.

It's not written by me. It's written by Amy

Nisam ga ja napisao. Napisala ga je Amy

and the other students in the class. As a consequence,

i drugi učenici u razredu. Kao posljedica toga,

this science paper begins, "Once upon a time ... " (Laughter)

ovaj znanstveni rad počinje ovako: "Bilo jednom davno…" (Smijeh)

The results section, it says: "Training phase, the puzzle ... duh duh duuuuuhhh." Right? (Laughter)

Dio o rezultatima kaže: "Faza treniranja, zagonetka… tam tam taaaam." (Smijeh)

And the methods, it says, "Then we put the bees

A kod metoda piše: "Onda smo stavili pčele u

into the fridge (and made bee pie)," smiley face. Right? (Laughter)

hladnjak (i napravili pitu od pčela)", smajlić. (Smijeh)

This is a science paper. We're going to try to get it published.

To je znanstveni rad. Pokušat ćemo ga objaviti.

So here's the title page. We have a number of authors there.

Evo naslovne stranice. Imamo više autora.

All the ones in bold are eight to 10 years old.

Svi masno otisnuti imaju od 8 do 10 godina.

The first author is Blackawton Primary School, because

Prvi je autor Osnovna škola Blackawton,

if it were ever referenced, it would be "Blackawton et al,"

pa ako se ikad bude citiralo, bit će navedeno kao "Blackawton et al.",

and not one individual. So we submit it to a public access journal,

a ne kao pojedinac. Rad smo predali javno dostupnom časopisu

and it says this. It said many things, but it said this.

i rekli su nam ovo. Rekli su nam mnogo toga, ali i ovo.

"I'm afraid the paper fails our initial quality control checks in several different ways." (Laughter)

"Bojim se da rad ne prolazi našu inicijalnu kontrolu kvalitete iz nekoliko razloga." (Smijeh)

In other words, it starts off "once upon a time,"

Drugim riječima, počinje s "Bilo jednom davno",

the figures are in crayon, etc. (Laughter)

brojevi su napisani bojicama, itd. (Smijeh)

So we said, we'll get it reviewed. So I sent it to Dale Purves,

Rekli smo da ćemo ga dati na recenziju pa sam ga poslao Daleu Purvesu

who is at the National Academy of Science, one of the leading neuroscientists in the world,

koji radi za Nacionalnu akademiju znanosti, jedan je od vodećih neuroznanstvenika u svijetu,

and he says, "This is the most original science paper I have ever read" — (Laughter) —

i on je rekao: "Ovo je najoriginalniji znanstveni rad koji sam ikad pročitao" -- (Smijeh) --

"and it certainly deserves wide exposure."

"i zasigurno zaslužuje široku eksponiranost."

Larry Maloney, expert in vision, says, "The paper is magnificent.

Larry Maloney, stručnjak za vid, kaže: "Rad je fantastičan.

The work would be publishable if done by adults."

Mogao bi se objaviti da su ga radili odrasli."

So what did we do? We send it back to the editor.

I što smo učinili? Poslali smo ga natrag uredniku.

They say no.

Rekao je ne.

So we asked Larry and Natalie Hempel to write

Pa smo pitali Larryja i Natalie Hempel da

a commentary situating the findings for scientists, right,

napišu komentar, približe zaključke znanstvenicima

putting in the references, and we submit it to Biology Letters.

i ubace reference, pa smo ga poslali časopisu Biology Letters.

And there, it was reviewed by five independent referees,

Ondje ga je pregledalo petero nezavisnih sudaca

and it was published. Okay? (Applause)

i objavljen je. OK? (Pljesak)

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

It took four months to do the science,

Trebalo je četiri mjeseca da obavimo znanstveni dio,

two years to get it published. (Laughter)

a dvije godine da to objavimo. (Smijeh)

Typical science, actually, right? So this makes Amy and

Tipično za znanost, zapravo, zar ne? Tako su Amy

her friends the youngest published scientists in the world.

i njezini prijatelji postali najmlađi znanstvenici s objavljenim radom na svijetu.

What was the feedback like?

Kakva je bila povratna reakcija?

Well, it was published two days before Christmas,

Pa, rad je objavljen dva dana prije Božića,

downloaded 30,000 times in the first day, right?

preuzet je 30.000 puta prvog dana.

It was the Editors' Choice in Science, which is a top science magazine.

Bio je Izbor urednika u Scienceu, vrhunskom znanstvenom časopisu.

It's forever freely accessible by Biology Letters.

Zauvijek je besplatno dostupan preko Biology Lettersa.

It's the only paper that will ever be freely accessible by this journal.

To je jedini rad koji će ikad biti besplatno dostupan preko tog časopisa.

Last year, it was the second-most downloaded paper

Prošle godine bio je drugi najpreuzimaniji rad

by Biology Letters, and the feedback from not just scientists

Biology Lettersa, a povratne informacije ne samo od znanstvenika i učitelja

and teachers but the public as well.

već i od javnosti --

And I'll just read one.

pročitat ću samo jednu.

"I have read 'Blackawton Bees' recently. I don't have

"Nedavno sam pročitao 'Blackawtonske pčele'.

words to explain exactly how I am feeling right now.

Nema riječi kojima bih dočarao kako se trenutno osjećam.

What you guys have done is real, true and amazing.

To što ste vi napravili stvarno je, istinito i fantastično.

Curiosity, interest, innocence and zeal are the most basic

Znatiželja, zanimanje, nevinost i žar najosnovnije su

and most important things to do science.

i najvažnije stvari za bavljenje znanošću.

Who else can have these qualities more than children?

Tko drugi može imati te kvalitete više nego djeca?

Please congratulate your children's team from my side."

Molim vas, čestitajte svojem dječjem timu u moje ime."

So I'd like to conclude with a physical metaphor.

Želio bih zaključiti s tjelesnom metaforom.

Can I do it on you? (Laughter)

Mogu li to učiniti na tebi? (Smijeh)

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, come on. Yeah yeah. Okay.

Da, da, da, hajde. Da, da. U redu.

Now, science is about taking risks, so this is an incredible risk, right? (Laughter)

U znanosti treba riskirati, a ovo je nevjerojatan rizik, zar ne? (Smijeh)

For me, not for him. Right? Because we've only done this once before. (Laughter)

Za mene, ne za njega. Zato što smo ovo do sad učinili samo jednom. (Smijeh)

And you like technology, right?

Ti voliš tehnologiju, zar ne?

Shimon Schocken: Right, but I like myself.

Shimon Schocken: Točno, ali volim i sebe.

BL: This is the epitome of technology. Right. Okay.

BL: Ovo je savršen primjer tehnologije.

Now ... (Laughter)

Sada... (Smijeh)

Okay. (Laughter)

U redu. (Smijeh)

Now, we're going to do a little demonstration, right?

Sad ćemo imati malu demonstraciju, može?

You have to close your eyes, and you have to point

Moraš zatvoriti oči i uprijeti prstom

where you hear me clapping. All right?

u mjesto gdje me čuješ kako plješćem. U redu?

(Clapping)

(Pljeskanje)

(Clapping)

(Pljeskanje)

Okay, how about if everyone over there shouts. One, two, three?

Kako bi bilo da svi tamo viknu? Jedan, dva, tri.

Audience: (Shouts)

Publika: (Vikanje)

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

(Shouts) (Laughter)

(Vikanje) (Smijeh)

Brilliant. Now, open your eyes. We'll do it one more time.

Izvrsno. Otvorite oči. Učinit ćemo ovo još jednom.

Everyone over there shout. (Shouts)

Svi tamo viknite. (Vikanje)

Where's the sound coming from? (Laughter) (Applause)

Odakle dolazi zvuk? (Smijeh) (Pljesak)

Thank you very much. (Applause)

Puno hvala. (Pljesak)

What's the point? The point is what science does for us.

U čemu je stvar? Stvar je u onome što znanost čini za nas.

Right? We normally walk through life responding,

Obično idemo kroz život odgovarajući,

but if we ever want to do anything different, we have to

ali ako ikad želimo učiniti nešto drukčije,

step into uncertainty. When he opened his eyes,

moramo zakoračiti u nesigurnost. Kad je otvorio oči,

he was able to see the world in a new way.

mogao je vidjeti svijet na nov način.

That's what science offers us. It offers the possibility

To je ono što nam znanost nudi. Nudi nam mogućnost

to step on uncertainty through the process of play, right?

da zakoračimo u nesigurnost kroz proces igre.

Now, true science education I think should be about

Istinsko znanstveno obrazovanje trebalo bi

giving people a voice and enabling to express that voice,

dati ljudima glas i omogućiti im da izraze taj glas

so I've asked Amy to be the last voice in this short story.

pa sam pitao Amy da bude posljednji glas u ovoj kratkoj priči.

So, Amy?

Amy?

AO: This project was really exciting for me,

AO: Ovaj projekt bio mi je zbilja uzbudljiv

because it brought the process of discovery to life,

jer je oživio proces otkrivanja

and it showed me that anyone, and I mean anyone,

i pokazao mi da svatko, stvarno svatko,

has the potential to discover something new,

ima potencijal otkriti nešto novo,

and that a small question can lead into a big discovery.

i da malo pitanje može dovesti do velikog otkrića.

Changing the way a person thinks about something

Promjena načina na koji osoba razmišlja o nečemu

can be easy or hard. It all depends on the way the person

može biti laka ili teška. Sve ovisi o onome što

feels about change.

osoba misli o toj promjeni.

But changing the way I thought about science was

Ali mijenjanje načina na koji sam ja razmišljala o znanosti

surprisingly easy. Once we played the games

bilo je iznenađujuće lako. Kad smo počeli igrati igre

and then started to think about the puzzle,

i razmišljati o zagonetki,

I then realized that science isn't just a boring subject,

tad sam shvatila da znanost nije samo dosadan predmet

and that anyone can discover something new.

te da svatko može otkriti nešto novo.

You just need an opportunity. My opportunity came

Samo trebate priliku. Moja prilika došla je

in the form of Beau, and the Blackawton Bee Project.

u obliku Beaua i Projekta blackawtonskih pčela.

Thank you.BL: Thank you very much. (Applause)

Hvala. BL: Puno hvala. (Pljesak)
