This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Engineering professor Barbara Oakley is co-teaching one of the worlds largest online classes, «Learning How to Learn», www.coursera.org/course/learning.
She know firsthand how it feels to struggle with math. Dr. Oakley flunked her way through high school math and science courses, before enlisting in the U.S. Army immediately after graduation. When she saw how her lack of mathematical and technical savvy severely limited her options—both to rise in the military and to explore other careers—she returned to school with a new found determination to re-tool her brain to master the very subjects that had given her so much trouble throughout her entire life.
Barbara Oakley, PhD, PE is a professor of engineering at Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan. Her research focuses on the complex relationship between neuroscience and social behavior, and has been described as “revolutionary” by the Wall Street Journal. Oakley’s books have been praised by many leading researchers and writers, including Harvard’s Steven Pinker and E. O. Wilson, and National Book Award winner Joyce Carol Oates. Her book A Mind for Numbers: How to Excel in Math and Science (Even If You Flunked Algebra), will be published by Tarcher-Penguin on July 31, 2014.
Prior to her academic career, Oakley rose from private to captain in the U.S. Army, during which time she was recognized as a Distinguished Military Scholar. She met her husband, Philip, when she was working at the South Pole Station in Antarctica. Her experiences with well-intentioned altruism were shaped by her work as a Russian translator on Soviet trawlers on the Bering Sea during the early 1980s. Oakley was designated as an NSF New Century Scholar—she is also a recipient of the Oakland University Teaching Excellence Award (2013) and the National Science Foundation’s Frontiers in Engineering New Faculty Fellow Award. Oakley is an elected Fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering.

Messaging around sexual assault prevention is largely aimed at women and cloaked in helpful advice: dont walk alone, dont get drunk, dont put yourself at risk. Essentially, dont get raped.
What if we turn this attention to a different population and say, dont rape? What are we doing wrong as a culture that we continue to produce rapists?
Through poignant storytelling, award-winning author and investigative producer Amy Herdy explores the cycle of sexual abuse and examines the dangers of dismissing our most violent predators as monsters.

ТЕМА: «Мечтать не вредно! Как стать креативным прямо сейчас?»
Креативность — это способность находить нестандартные решения задач. Каждому ли дано это умение? Да! Главный принцип — включить внутреннего ребенка. Именно он творец внутри нас, его надо вывести из под контроля совести внутреннего критика, внутреннего родителя. Тогда мы сможем легко фантазировать, как делали это в детстве. Если в мире станет больше людей, которые легко могут фантазировать, наш мир будет наполняться новыми невероятными идеями и их воплощением.

TALK: It’s not dangerous to dream. How to become more creative right now?
Creativity is the ability to find non-standard solutions to problems. Is it a talent or a skill? It’s a skill! The secret to creativity is to reawaken your inner child. He is a creator inside each of us, he should be taken out of control of the inner parent. Then we can easily dream, as we used to do in our childhood. If there are more people in the world who can easily fantasize, our world will be filled with new incredible ideas and their embodiment.

Это история о том, как молодые американцы уходят из дома, запрыгивают в вагоны грузовых поездов и отправляются бродяжничать по своей стране в поисках лучшей жизни.
Я с другом Ильёй отправляюсь в путешествие по западному побережью США на автомобиле. Пространство сжимается до одной точки: нашего старенького автомобиля на котором мы колесим вдоль побережья Тихого океана, с севера на юг по штату Калифорния. Каждый вечер мы ночуем под звездным небом, на пляжах, у трассы, в пустыне, там где нас застанет ночь. Вокруг мир без людей и только дорога, которая уводит нас всё дальше и дальше от привычной реальности.
