教育--是关心备至
深思熟虑地、小心翼翼地
去触及心灵的转化
创新已经改变了教育
科技打破了学习空间障碍
互联网突破了知识获取的密道
当教育者进入了一个科技主导的社会
他们又会有怎样的思考
让我们一起倾听⋯⋯
IDEAS CAME TO LIFE
WHEN WE CAME TO CONSCIOUSNESS
A SIMPLE IDEA CAN HAVE A GREAT EFFECT
WHEN IT MEETS THE RIGHT PERSON
BUT WHAT’S EVEN MORE POWERFUL
IS WHEN IDEAS COME TOGETHER
TED WAS FOUNDED WITH THE MISSION OF
IDEAS WORTH SPREADING
GATHERING INTELLECTUALS TO SHARE IDEAS
IN TECHNOLOGY ENTERTAINMENT AND DESIGN
BUT MANY IDEAS ARE YET TO FIND LIGHT...
AND THIS IS THE PURPOSE BEHIND TEDXCAOHEJING
A TEAM OF BRIGHT PEOPLE
STANDING AT THE EDGE OF THE UNKNOWN
EAGER TO SHARE INSPIRATION AND IDEAS
EAGER TO CHANGE
WE BELIEVE EVERY PERSON HAS CREATIVITY
AND UNIQUE STORIES TO TELL
