How children can learn history

bueno no sé a ustedes
0:05
pero a mí la parte que más me gustaba de ir a la escuela
0:08
es cuando nos sacaban de excursión
0:11
o cuando íbamos de campamento
0:17
me parece que me gustaba mucho porque
0:19
en este momento uno se sentía libre
0:24
uno podía ver a sus compañeros con la luz del día
0:28
podríamos ver a la señorita interactuar con el mundo real
0:33
pero me parece que lo más importante que cuando estábamos de excursión es
0:36
que aprender y vivir eran parte de la misma cosa
0:42
yo trabajo como director y guionista
0:44
en el 2009 teníamos un problema
0:49
resulta que había que pensar un programa infantil
0:53
que le contara a los chicos la revolución de mayo
0:56
y el problema es que no se nos ocurría nada
0:59
así que un poco para volver a conectarme con eso que tanto me gustaba de la escuela
1:04
y otro poco creo yo para ver si se me ocurría alguna idea
1:11
me fui solo de excursión al cabildo de buenos aires
1:14
llego al cabildo subo el primer piso
1:16
doble a la izquierda y me encuentro con esta imagen
1:24
la primera junta de gobierno
1:26
entonces me acerco
1:29
leo los nombres saavedra moreno pastel y belgrano
1:33
paso le miro en las expresiones, las caras
1:39
y ahí tuve una primera revelación
1:44
esto es un embole, no hay manera
2:00
no hay manera de hacer algo entretenido
con esto
02:03
los chicos siempre van a preferir ver pokemon o dragon ball z
2:09
si nos lo ponemos a pensar son capaces de almacenar en el cerebro
2:14
cinco generaciones completas de pokemon en japonés
2:20
vuelven a ver las películas que les gustan un millón quinientos mil veces
2:24
y se saben los diálogos de memoria
2:26
y cuál es la diferencia entre ese contenido y este
2:30
podemos hacer que la revolución de mayo sea tan atractiva como eso

well I don't know about you
0:05
but the part that I liked the most about going to school
0:08
is when they would take us on a hike
0:11
or when we were camping
0:17
i think I liked it a lot because
0:19
right now you felt free
0:24
you could see your peers in the daylight
0:28
we could see Miss interact with the real world
0:33
but it seems to me that the most important thing when we were hiking is
0:36
is learning and living were part of the same thing
0:42
i work as a director and screenwriter
0:44
in 2009 we had a problem
0:49
it turns out that we had to think of a children's
0:53
to tell the kids about the May revolution
0:56
and the problem is that we couldn't think of anything
0:59
so a little bit to reconnect with what I liked so much of the school
1:04
another little I think to see if I could come up with any ideas
1:11
i went alone on an excursion to the town hall of Buenos Aires
1:14
arrived at the council goes up the first floor
1:16
turn left and I find this image
1:24
the first governing board
1:26
then I get closer
1:29
i read the names saavedra moreno pastel and belgrano
1:33
passed I look at him in the expressions, the faces
1:39
and there I had a first revelation
1:44
this is an embolism, there's no way
2:00
there's no way to make something entertaining
02:03
guys are always going to prefer to watch pokemon or dragon ball z
2:09
if we think about it, they are able to store in the brain
2:14
five full generations of Japanese pokemon
2:20
re-watch the movies they like a million five hundred thousand times
2:24
and you know the dialogues by heart
2:26
and what's the difference between that content and this
2:30
we can make the May revolution as appealing as that

Well, I don't know about you,
0:05
but the part I liked most about going to school
0:08
was when they took us on field trips
0:11
or when we went camping.
0:17
I think I liked it a lot because
0:19
at that moment, you felt free.
0:24
You could see your classmates in the daylight.
0:28
We could see the teacher interacting with the real world.
0:33
But I think the most important thing when we were on a field trip is
0:36
that learning and living were part of the same thing.
0:42
I work as a director and screenwriter.
0:44
In 2009, we had a problem.
0:49
It turned out we had to come up with a children's program
0:53
that would tell kids about the May Revolution.
0:56
And the problem was, we couldn't think of anything.
0:59
So, partly to reconnect with what I liked so much about school,
1:04
and partly, I think, to see if I could come up with any ideas,
1:11
I went on a solo field trip to the Cabildo of Buenos Aires.
1:14
I arrive at the Cabildo, go up to the first floor,
1:16
turn left, and I find myself with this image:
1:24
the First Governing Junta.
1:26
So I approach,
1:29
I read the names: Saavedra, Moreno, Castelli, Belgrano.
1:33
I walk past, I look at their expressions, their faces.
1:39
And there I had a first revelation:
1:44
This is boring, there's no way.
2:00
There's no way to make something entertaining with this.
02:03
Kids will always prefer to watch Pokémon or Dragon Ball Z.
2:09
If we think about it, they are capable of storing in their brains
2:14
five complete generations of Pokémon in Japanese.
2:20
They rewatch the movies they like a million five hundred thousand times
2:24
and they know the dialogues by heart.
2:26
And what's the difference between that content and this?
2:30
Can we make the May Revolution as appealing as that?
