TEDx Talks· 2025-11-17 17:25
今天,教育者仍然是最重要的教育资源,在中国,优质的教育资源必然稀缺。一小时几百元的补习班、十万一平米的学区房,十几年的应试教育,都是为了能够接触到最优质的教育资源。 我们的衣食住行,都因为信息技术的发展产生了巨大变化,那么我们的教育呢?过去几年间,风变科技旗下的熊猫书院、Python 编程课火遍中国的年轻一代。 在风变科技 CEO 刘克亮眼中,目前的在线教育资源看似多且便捷,但模式上除把内容从线下往线上搬,完成了更大量级的传播外,不仅未消弭教育的不平等,反而造成了割裂和加深 —— 个体知识迭代更新的马太效应愈发明显:智力上的强者愈强,弱者愈弱。 而他认为,教育本身就是一个信息传递的过程,他希望在科技的助力下,完成「网络协同生产、课程数据智能」在个体教育上的探索,最终实现「自我教育」,一如水、电等基础设施一样,成为人类的日常,从而真正实现教育的平等。 Today, educators are still the most important educational resource, and high-quality educational resources are inevitably scarce.
