ืœื”ื™ื“ื‘ืง?
00:54
So, in the next eight minutes I would like to share with you my story.

I got infected when I was 17,

ืื ื™ ื ื™ื“ื‘ืงืชื™ ืฉื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ื‘ืช 17.
01:00
when, as a student of the design college,
16
60260
2000
ืœืžื“ืชื™ ื‘ืžื›ืœืœื” ืœืขื™ืฆื•ื‘,
01:02
I encountered adults who actually believed in my ideas,
17
62260
4000
ื•ืฉื ืคื’ืฉืชื™ ื‘ืžื‘ื•ื’ืจื™ื ืฉื”ืืžื™ื ื• ื‘ืจืขื™ื•ื ื•ืช ืฉืœื™,
01:06
challenged me and had lots of cups of chai with me.

ืื™ืชื’ืจื• ืื•ืชื™, ื•ื™ืฉื‘ื• ืื™ืชื™ ืขืœ ื”ืจื‘ื” ื›ื•ืกื•ืช ืฉืœ ืฆ'ืื™.
01:09
And I was struck by just how wonderful it felt,
19
69260
3000
ื ื“ื”ืžืชื™ ืœื’ืœื•ืช ื›ืžื” ื”ืชื—ื•ืฉื” ื ืคืœืื”,
01:12
and how contagious that feeling was.
20
72260
2000
ื•ื›ืžื” ื”ืชื—ื•ืฉื” ืžื™ื“ื‘ืงืช.
01:14
I also realized I should have got infected when I was seven.
21

5000
ื”ื‘ื ืชื™ ื’ื ืฉื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ืฆืจื™ื›ื” ืœื”ื™ื“ื‘ืง ื›ืฉื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ื‘ืช ืฉื‘ืข.
01:19
So, when I started Riverside school 10 years ago it became a lab,
22
79260
3000
ื•ื›ืš, ื›ืฉื”ืงืžืชื™ ืœืคื ื™ ืขืฉื•ืจ ืืช ื‘ื™ืช ืกืคืจ ืจื™ื‘ืจืกื™ื™ื“ ื”ื•ื ื”ืคืš ืœืžืขื‘ื“ื”,
01:22
a lab to prototype and refine a design process
23
82260
5000
ืžืขื‘ื“ื” ืœืขื™ืฆื•ื‘ ื•ืœืœื™ื˜ื•ืฉ ืชื”ืœื™ืš ืฉืžื˜ืจืชื•
01:27
that could consciously infect the mind with the "I Can" bug.
24
87260
3000
ืœื”ื“ื‘ื™ืง ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ืžื•ื“ืข ืืช ื”ืชื•ื“ืขื” ื‘ื•ื™ืจื•ืก ื”"ืื ื™ ื™ื›ื•ืœ".
01:30
And I uncovered
25
90260
2000
ื•ื’ื™ืœื™ืชื™ ืฉืื
01:32
that if learning is embedded in real-world context,
26
92260
3000
ื”ืœืžื™ื“ื” ืžืชื‘ืฆืขืช ืžืชื•ืš ื”ืงืฉืจ ืืœ ื”ืขื•ืœื ื”ืืžื™ืชื™,
01:35
that if you blur the boundaries between school and life,
27
95260
3000
ืื ืžื˜ืฉื˜ืฉื™ื ืืช ื”ื’ื‘ื•ืœื•ืช ื‘ื™ืŸ ื‘ื™ืช ื”ืกืคืจ ื•ื”ื—ื™ื™ื,
01:38
then children go through a journey of "aware,"
28
98260
3000
ื”ื™ืœื“ื™ื ืขื•ื‘ืจื™ื ืžืกืข ืฉืœ
01:41
where they can see the change,
29
101260
2000
ืžื•ื“ืขื•ืช - ื”ื ื™ื›ื•ืœื™ื ืœื”ื‘ื—ื™ืŸ ื‘ืฉื™ื ื•ื™,
01:43
"enable," be changed,
30
103260
3000
ืื™ืคืฉื•ืจ - ื”ื ืžืฉืชื ื™ื,
01:46
and then "empower," lead the change.
31
106260
3000
ื•ืื– ื”ืขืฆืžื” - ื”ื ืžื•ื‘ื™ืœื™ื ืืช ื”ืฉื™ื ื•ื™.
01:49
And that directly increased student wellbeing.
32
109260
3000
ืชื”ืœื™ืš ื–ื” ืฉื™ืคืจ ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ื™ืฉื™ืจ ืืช ืจื•ื•ื—ืชื ื”ืื™ืฉื™ืช ืฉืœ ื”ืชืœืžื™ื“ื™ื.
01:52
Children became more competent,
33
112260
2000
ืชื—ื•ืฉืช ื”ืžืกื•ื’ืœื•ืช ืฉืœ ื”ื™ืœื“ื™ื ื’ื‘ืจื”,
01:54
and less helpless.
34
114260
2000
ื•ื”ื ื ืขืฉื• ืคื—ื•ืช ื—ืกืจื™ ืื•ื ื™ื.
01:56
But this was all common sense.
35
116260
2000
ืื‘ืœ ื›ืœ ื–ื” ื”ื™ื’ื™ื•ืŸ ืคืฉื•ื˜.
01:58
So, I'd like to show you a little glimpse of what
36
118260
2000
ื ืขื‘ื•ืจ ืœื”ืฆืฆื” ืงื˜ื ื”
02:00
common practice looks like at Riverside.

ื‘ืคืขื™ืœื•ืช ื”ืื•ืคื™ื™ื ื™ืช ืœืจื™ื‘ืจืกื™ื™ื“.
02:03
A little background: when my grade five was learning about child rights,
38
123260
4000
ืงืฆืช ืจืงืข: ื›ืฉื›ื™ืชื” ื”"ื ืœืžื“ื” ืขืœ ื–ื›ื•ื™ื•ืช ื”ื™ืœื“ื™ื,
02:07
they were made to roll incense sticks,
39
127260
2000
ื”ื ื—ื•ื™ื™ื‘ื• ืœื’ืœื’ืœ ืžืงืœื•ืช ืงื˜ื•ืจืช,
02:09
agarbattis, for eight hours
40
129260
2000
"ืื’ืจื‘ื˜ื™", ื‘ืžืฉืš ืฉืžื•ื ื” ืฉืขื•ืช
02:11
to experience what it means to be a child laborer.
41
131260
4000
ื›ื“ื™ ืœื—ื•ื•ืช ืžื”ื™ ืขื‘ื•ื“ืช ื™ืœื“ื™ื.
02:15
It transformed them. What you will see is their journey,
42
135260
2000
ื”ื ืขื‘ืจื• ืฉื™ื ื•ื™. ืืชื ืชื™ืฆืคื• ื‘ืžืกืข ืฉืœื”ื,
02:17
and then their utter conviction
43
137260
2000
ื•ื‘ืืžื•ื ื” ื”ืขืžื•ืงื” ืฉืœื”ื
02:19
that they could go out and change the world.
44
139260
3000
ื‘ื™ื›ื•ืœืช ืฉืœื”ื ืœืฆืืช ื•ืœืฉื ื•ืช ืืช ื”ืขื•ืœื.
02:22
(Music)
45
142260
2000
[ืžื•ื–ื™ืงื”]
02:26
That's them rolling.
46
146260
2000
ื”ื ื” ื”ื ืžื’ืœื’ืœื™ื.
02:28
And in two hours, after their backs were broke,
47
148260
3000
ื•ื›ืขื‘ื•ืจ ืฉืขืชื™ื™ื, ื›ืฉื”ื’ื‘ ืฉืœื”ื ื ืฉื‘ืจ,
02:31
they were changed.
48
151260
2000
ื”ื ืขื‘ืจื• ืฉื™ื ื•ื™.
02:33
And once that happened,
49
153260
2000
ื•ื‘ืจื’ืข ืฉื”ืฉื™ื ื•ื™ ื”ืชืจื—ืฉ,
02:35
they were out in the city convincing everybody
50
155260
3000
ื”ื ื™ืฆืื• ืœืขื™ืจ ืœืฉื›ื ืข ืืช ื›ื•ืœื
02:38
that child labor just had to be abolished.
51
158260
3000
ืฉื—ื™ื™ื‘ื™ื ืœื—ืกืœ ืขื‘ื•ื“ืช ื™ืœื“ื™ื.
02:43
And look at Ragav, that moment when his face changes
52
163260
3000
ืฉื™ืžื• ืœื‘ ืœืจื’'ื‘, ืœืจื’ืข ื‘ื• ื”ืคื ื™ื ืฉืœื• ืžืฉืชื ื™ื
02:46
because he's been able to understand that he

3000
ื›ืฉื”ื•ื ืžื‘ื™ืŸ ืฉื”ื•ื ื”ืฆืœื™ื—
02:49
has shifted that man's mindset.

ืœืฉื ื•ืช ืืช ื“ืคื•ืกื™ ื”ื—ืฉื™ื‘ื” ืฉืœ ื”ืื™ืฉ ื”ื–ื”.
02:52
And that can't happen in a classroom.

3000
ื–ื” ืœื ื™ื›ื•ืœ ืœื”ืชืจื—ืฉ ื‘ื›ื™ืชื”.
02:58
So, when Ragav experienced that
56
178260
1000
ื›ืฉืจื’'ื‘ ื—ื•ื•ื” ื–ืืช
02:59
he went from "teacher told me,"

ื—ืœ ื‘ื• ื”ืžืขื‘ืจ ืž"ื”ืžื•ืจื” ืืžืจื”" ืœ"ืื ื™ ืžื‘ืฆืข",
03:02
to "I am doing it." And that's the "I Can" mindshift.
58
182260
3000
ื•ื–ื”ื• ื”ืฉื™ื ื•ื™ ื”ืชื•ื“ืขืชื™ ืฉืœ "ืื ื™ ื™ื›ื•ืœ".
03:05
And it is a process that can be energized and nurtured.
59
185260

ืืคืฉืจ ืœื”ื ื™ืข ื•ืœื”ื–ื™ืŸ ืืช ื”ืชื”ืœื™ืš ื”ื–ื”.
03:09
But we had parents who said,

2000
ืื‘ืœ ื”ื™ื• ื”ื•ืจื™ื ืฉืืžืจื•,

"Okay, making our children good human beings is all very well,
