Early education is critical to children's success -- but millions of kids in the United States still don't have access to programs that prepare them to thrive in kindergarten and beyond. Enter the UPSTART Project, a plan to bring early learning into the homes of children in underserved communities, at no cost to families. Education innovator Claudia Miner shares how UPSTART is setting four-year-olds up for success with 15 minutes of learning a day -- and how you can help. (This ambitious plan is a part of the Audacious Project, TED's initiative to inspire and fund global change.)

This is awesome! My child is participating right now! We started her this summer. She has been in pre school since last year and is in 4yo this year. This program is amazing, my daughter is pre reading and writing. She is learning math and science too! Only 20-30 mins a day 5x’s a week!
How is she doing now?
FIRST, teach the kids How to think
Not What to think
Ok
That's the way. A great focus on philosophy and the underlying theories of education would be so beneficial. Maybe A) kids would actually appreciate school and B) school would be a more beneficial experience.
I think the two of those really go hand in hand.
We have a severe critical thinking crisis in America right now. This would honestly help a ton. It'd teach kids how to recognize fallacious arguments and reasoning. It'd teach kids how to recognize their cognitive biases and help everyone understand and recognize other positions. Right now we live in a very polarized world and society where we only stick to information that agrees with our world view; however, no thought it gone into thinking if that world view is even right. Any facts and evidence -- science, in general -- just bounces off and gets completely ignored.
[edit: fixed the sentence about polarized world/society.]
@@Avenger222 I agree 100%!
I agree with you
The problem with having a historian running the future of education is it isn't bringing in new ideas. This sounds like a new version of "teaching for the test" with bright colors and 20 year old graphics. Engagement with kids would be way more impactful for a generation that has a iPad before they are out of diapers
Why not one for Life? High school doesn't teach everyday life things we get confused about
AnthonyTheGreat
Yeah! High school only teaches unnecessary stuff
@@drewsaluk6860 I know you're being sarcastic (because it'd be rude for me to assume you're that stupid), but Anthony makes a good point. Heck, many schools don't even teach you how to do taxes and everyone's required to file them.
[edit: forgot an s]
Wake Up
I don’t even know what response is appropriate to that
Avenger
I was dead serious and am not stupid so, well firstly f u I’m not stupid. Secondly u just agreed with me, high school doesn’t teach taxes they teach what YZ equals. That knowledge will never be used in real life
@@drewsaluk6860
Does the education system miss everyday things like Anthony pointed out? Yes. Does high school still teach you useful things used in everyday life? Yes. If you can't make use of algebra, geometry, calculus, PE and exercises, history, art, music, English, chemistry. physics, biology, etc, then that's not on the education system -- that's on you.
P.S. Intelligent people don't need to proclaim and remind the world that they're not stupid, my dude.
This is fantastic! I just made a research proposal on kindergarten readiness by evaluating early education/intervention programs. Engaging parents in their children's education is a continual frustration for teachers.
Memories🙂. My baby had to be physically removed from me on her first day. She cried. I cried. The principal & my husband got mad at me for crying. I stayed for 2 hours watching thru the window and she cried herself to sleep. It was rough we laugh now but I cried the entire day. She was only 4 and had never been anywhere w/o us. My girl.
TheSwoleBroscientist you re very rude.
Oh man I hope this helps get me through kindergarten! I’m 20 and still haven’t graduated from it!
Make education fun and like a game. I love it!! 👏
I use Upstart!
Just have universal pre K and be done with it. Also 2 years of college at public universities or 4-12 month trade schools. Set this new system up just like grade/high school, except college and trade school will be optional. Pre K should be mandatory but more lenient then grade school.
Emm... Maybe we should change our school's methods? Why our poor kids have to start learning more earlier again to gain this f*ing good grades. I think this approach doesn't work about 30 years already.
And who is doing the oversight on their curriculum?
Literal commies
TED be dropping videos faster than I drop my grades
Music is an essential tool in early childhood education! Children are aural learners and science shows we are all prepared for music fro. Prebirth.
We still underutilise music. If we make it the core, just think about your ABCS, the sky is the limit!
Music and language are also inextricably linked. There is no other activity that compares. Early childhood educators should be trained music and movement education and sensitised to foreign languages so they could be more effective at delivering and manipulating the curriculum for children to learn even faster!
Children should always be taught to listen/auditory discrimination long before they learn to make visual associations.
These people seem to forget that we put men on the moon with people educated in small school houses, using pencils and slide rules.
So TED does product placement as well?
Okay but I don't understand how this is different than sesame street. I get that it's important to teach kids social interactions, but with parents who work two jobs or kids in foster care this doesn't seem like a super viable option.
I have worked in Kindergartens in Germany, the Netherlands and Iceland...and it’s just appalling to see the lack of support that parents have back home in the USA. The idea that this is supposed to help, well, I believe in tech, but what about getting people access to professional help
Germany is where my ancestors are from.
sounds like an advertisement. The cost says it all, 2k for the program is wayyy too much. a capable computer can cost 200-300$ nowadays, then what? You supposedly earned 60k*2k = 120m but I assume most of those kids got it for free, but still you see this program should cost pennies but the catch is, it doesn't, that's because you goal is not to educate and there is a conflict of interest there
She explicitly stated that the cost is too pay for access (e.g. laptops) for other children who can't afford it on their own. Don't get me wrong though, capitalist pigs trying to squeeze money out of tax payers is awful.
When I was in high school I were in disability class 1999
You couldn't find a less enthusiastic person to talk about this subject if you tried. Also, these learning games have been around since as early as1992. That's not an exaggeration. The Upstart production quality looks worse than games like Putt Putt or Freddi the Fish from that era.
From an Annenberg-Brown study of Head Start: "we found no statistically significant impacts on earnings and mixed evidence of impacts on other adult outcomes". Additional evaluation here: www.chalkbeat.org/posts/us/2019/08/08/head-start-early-childhood-education-long-term-effects-research/
on speed x1.25 this women make more sense
Look at Finland, they start school later than we do, and they have the best educational outcomes in the world. Preschool is not the answer for at risk kids.
Finland has one of the most comprehensive welfare systems in the world, which guarantees every child has all necessities well covered.
@@Belenshares Ok but that's what we should be focusing on then, making sure they have all their necessities met, not putting them in school sooner
brittany14 What is more likely to be feasible in this country though?
ok, now we need to learn a song before we learn a number, ok
$5000 a year to learn ABC's and 0-9? What a joke.
How often do you use ABC and 123 in your life? I'd say it's a bargain.
Think about how 'dumb' you seem to be in middle school, etc. You must have been 'dumber' in kindergarten.
Not insulting you, everyone (at the very least, I feel dumb when I recall what I struggled on in middle school, elementary, etc.
Jason z and Stewart Howell
The parents can teach anything K-12 without any problems and for next to nothing. The public schools are a joke and a huge waste of time and money.
@@stewarthowell6781 is bad at math
@@MattRogersMusic You think your parents are worth less than $5000 a year? Let's say the minimum wage is $7.25. That's about 690 hours.
Average school year is 180 days and average school day is 6.75 hours. That's 1,215 hours.
You think your parents are only worth $4.12 an hour?
If you think your parents time is worth more than $4.12 an hour, then you'd be saving money if the cost was only $5000 a year.
The concept is great but it only requires more involved parenting. I think it's a 'fruits of your labor' type thing cause it's more difficult for us to teach them than it is for them to learn. Patience is key mates
Kids don't need preparation for kindergarten. It's like the easiest stuff ever
Kids need encouragement and access to knowledge as early as possible...
Of course they need good education further on. But focussing on the preparation before kindergarten is equaly necessary.
At least thats my opinion speaking from germany. Learning english, motor skills, a little bit of maths and social behaviour such as how to treat another person is especially important in such a young age.
I think the way shown in the video is a great way to achieve that.
@@Knipex23 you're right, but young minds like kindergartener's won't understand what is happening and can simply be told to go to school (That's what happened to me and most other people). Besides, there's nothing THAT important that kids could be learning in Kindergarten. But good point.
teaching a child to learn is something that must start in the home. for many kids, kindergarten isn’t easy because they weren’t properly introduced to letters and numbers until their first day of school. the whole point of the video is that they do need preparation early on bc without it many children fall behind
The public school system is quite easy for most children, but, for some it isn't and that is why there are special help programs for them. Likewise, there are also programs for advanced kids. Regardless of the intelligence and motivation of the child, school is manageable.
Preschool prep is an awesome at home program with free RUclips videos to watch for youngsters.... Much better than this outdated looking program.
Thinking this fundraiser and its lack of support might clue in someone that UPSTART is not supported. 15 MILLION subs and the average viewership seems to run at 10% and this video has fewer than 30K views.
I thought it said "to get every child ready for kidnapping"
Nava and you clicked it! Lol
@@My_Alchemical_Romance I was curious!
Nava lol! I’m just kidding ya! Hah!
We could just make Andrew Yang our president or something:

next thing you know is your kid being taken away because you won't let him change his gander
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
I'm the 1000 like yesss
Watch someone in the comments try and make this a liberal conspiracy
This is a bad sales pitch. 15 minutes of watching Sesame street w. Parents would have the exact same result. Reading to your kids has even better results. Stop begging for our tax money. So grossed out by this.
4th! For prosperity.
....Who needs all these sick persons? The tittle of this video should be ''a new way to get every child under more and more control and restriction''. I am very glad that I don't live in the States. American people wake up!!!
DON'T STOP BELIEVE
I was reminded, when father asked my brother to help pay electricity bills with cash. then while on the road my brother saw a lottery ad with a prize for our father's dream car, then he spent all that money to buy a lottery. after he returned home, he told everything to father. then dad was very angry and my brother was hit by dad. several days later, surprisingly. there is a new edition Ford car parked outside our house, yes right, it is father dream car. our family was very surprised by that. My mother crying loudly and after seeing for some time, my brother started crying louder than my mom, when suddenly two electricians came out to unplug electricity in our house because they did not pay. Then the younger brother was beaten again by Father.
Thanks for Google translate, now I can share to the world.
2000 dollars to replicate sesame st. teachers unions. keeping vampirism alive
Total bs
Noice
Hahahaha. Go to college. What a joke ... nobody needs college in this day and age very historical thinking in that woman
