What people don't want is essentially the education system we have right now.
从根本上说，人们不想要的是我们现在的教育体系。
A standardized system with standardized assessments, leading to standardized outcomes, that treats every kid exactly the same.
一个标准化的系统，具有标准化的评估，产生标准化的结果，对每个孩子一视同仁。
The problem is these people are absolutely convinced that most people still want the existing standardized system— which is a 'collective illusion.'
问题是，这些人绝对相信，大多数人仍然想要现有的标准化体系--这是一种“集体幻觉”。
A collective illusion is a situation where most people in a group go along with an idea that they don't agree with simply because they incorrectly think that most other people in the group agree with it.
集体幻觉是指群体中的大多数人认同自己不认同的观点，仅仅因为他们错误地认为群体中的大多数人都认同这个观点。
If I believe most everybody else in the country is more or less happy with the one-size-fits-all system and college is the only indicator of success, nothing's gonna change.
如果我相信这个国家的大多数其他人或多或少都对这种一刀切的制度感到满意，而大学是衡量成功的唯一指标，那么一切都不会改变。
What we're witnessing right now across the country is a pretty dramatic shift in the way people think about their relationship between people and our institutions.

Out of the 66 possibilities that an institution of higher education could deliver, what we wanted to understand is, 'What do you prioritize?'
在高等教育机构可以提供的66种可能性中，我们想要了解的是，“你优先考虑什么？”
What you're given is a task that says, 'School A, School B'— six of those 66 attributes are randomly grabbed for School A.
你得到的是一个任务，上面写着，‘A校，B校’--这66个属性中的6个代表的是A校。
Another six are grabbed for School B— which one of these do you choose?
另有6个代表的是B校--你会选哪一个？
Do it again with six others, and that allows us to build a profile for you of your trade-off priorities for higher education.
再用另外6个属性测试一下，这样我们就可以给你建立一个在高等教育方面，你所权衡的优先事项的个人资料。
What people think people want out of higher education is the prestigious school with a great sports team and an active social life.
人们认为大家想从高等教育中得到的是名牌大学，拥有一支优秀的运动队和活跃的社交生活。
What people actually want out of higher ed is to get a good job that is meaningful to them and to do that with as little debt as possible.
但实际上人们真正想要的是找到一份对他们有意义的好工作，并且尽量少负债。
There are incredible institutions of higher education who are giving us a vision of what the future of higher education will be.
有许多令人难以置信的高等教育机构正在为我们展望高等教育的未来。
They are doing things that are modularized, individualized, customized—using credentials instead of diplomas to create better signals for employers.
他们正在做的事情是模块化、个性化、定制化的--使用证书而不是文凭为雇主提供更好的信号。
People are really interested not just in having an undifferentiated diploma, but also a hybrid— on-the-job training, apprenticeships.
人们真正感兴趣的不仅仅是没有差别的文凭，还有一种混合制度——在职培训和学徒制度。
It's not simply book smarts that gets you the job that you want.
让你不仅仅是因为书呆子才得到自己心仪的工作。
Success is not just going to college, it is actually, 'Are we equipping you to live the life that you wanna live?'
成功不只是上大学，而是，‘我们是否在让你准备好去过自己想要的生活？”
Parents know their kids better than bureaucrats know their kids.
父母比官僚更了解自己的孩子。
Communities know their values better than the federal government knows a community's values.
社区比联邦政府更了解自己的价值观。
Where there's a lot of common ground is in this commitment to a far more individualized educational experience.
人们普遍存在共同点的地方是努力提供更加个性化的教育体验。
Education is, and always will be, the great equalizer, the best vehicle for enabling people to actually live the kind of lives they wanna live.
教育是，也将永远是伟大的均衡器，是让人们真正过上他们想要的生活的最好工具。
That might be college for some people, it might be trades for others.
对一些人来说，这可能是上大学，对另一些人来说，也可能是交易。
What social entrepreneurs need to do is build the solutions, and dismantle the illusions.
社会企业家需要做的是建立解决方案，破除幻觉。
If we get it right and we acknowledge the collective illusion, recognize our common desires for the purpose of education moving forward, there's an opportunity to drive pretty substantial change.
如果我们做对了，我们承认了集体错觉，认识到我们共同的愿望，以推动教育向前发展，就有机会带来相当实质性的变化。
And we can actually have the education system that we want and deserve.
我们就可以真正拥有想要的、应得的教育体系。
