- According to the U.S. Department of Labor, 65% of today’s grade school kids will be in jobs that don’t yet exist. This generation is expected to have 14 jobs between 18 and 44. What are the key skills that students need to cultivate to lead and innovate in a fundamentally turbulent economy? What role should universities play to cultivate these skills?
Michael Lai is the North American Student Outreach Lead for the Minerva Schools at KGI, a new accredited university program designed by a Harvard Dean and Silicon Valley entrepreneur to prepare students to solve complex global problems. Minerva students live in seven of the world’s greatest cities during their four years of college, studying exclusively in small active learning seminars.
Prior to Minerva Michael worked at Google DotOrg and education startup Noodle, focused on using technology to increase access to education. Michael graduated from Harvard College, where he studied government and education and taught civics to 4th, 5th, and 8th graders.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
From one Michael Lai to another, great job
He’s got a point, however college degrees matter in terms of people taking you more seriously sooner. It makes a difference when you start a TED talk by telling people you’re a Harvard graduate...the name carries weight
The right secuence is be do have / not do first /the advice is right but not the secuence
Is there any way for viewers to change the transcript? It's wildly inaccurate and I'm using this Talk in my ESL class. At 5:38, instead of "measurable" it reads "vegetable", and my students are going to be confused. I would like to volunteer to fix the errors. I'm sorry for any deaf people who are trying to watch TED talks with this erroneous system in place :/
spot on!
Very educative and funny in same time, thank you for nice lecture :)
Very nice video.
Good theme to discuss actually, I found myself asking these questions after graduaring from college..)
interesting
POV: Your school is teaching you about jobs in the future from a video from 7 years ago
I appreciate the ideas in this talk, but it felt like an advertisement for Minerva in the middle and REALLY downplayed the value of basic university education. I wish that part could have been left out and it had been just about skills.
I don't kniow.
