the announcement. all non essential shops are to be closed as our bars, restaurants, schools, and cultural facilities. restrictions are planned until at least the 14th of january. you guys brings it minister, david frost has resigned due to disillusionment with prime minister barak johnson's government. it comes after a disastrous wake for the prime minister with a bi election to faith and rebellion from his own in pays over the introduction of additional coven restrictions. hong kong is holding legislative elections where only candidates deemed as patriots by a government committee are allowed to run. it's the 1st election since begging in post sweeping reforms on the territory earlier this year in an attempt to crack down on a pro democracy movement. this is d w. news from berlin. you can get a lot more news at our website to be found at d. w dot com. ah ah, this week unwell stories, do hon is burg fighting the corona virus. a dispute over a coal mine in britain? but we began in ukraine, there was international concern about the deployment of russian troops on the countries east in border how i residence in the border region, handling the threats this muddy track years to be an international crossing from ukraine to russia for alina and her neighbors, with family and friends on both sides, it was a lifeline. dana, a cup roll cook. i want to check what kind of why they put up. oh yes. yes. it's bob's why i call you j tucker dish. and they will allow this strip. but oh, to catch people, we try to cross with it lowered a few signs, some fencing and some barbed wire. with that it might not look like a particularly well defended friendship between 2 countries in conflict. but it's certainly a big change or people in this part of eastern ukraine to hold until a few years ago could drive across the border without much is showing a passport. what a nice. yes, my neighbor has his elderly mother down there on the russian side. it's only 6 kilometers from here, but now he has to do a huge loop and travel 10 times that to pass through the board to post them all you, as in, in the board offense was 1st built few years ago. helena tells us relatives would come and stand on both sides to talk over the barbed wire. if this closeness these personal ties that mean that many here aren't ready to believe that armed conflict with russia is even possible for us on the gym. but usually we hear all the scary things in the news, but i just can't imagine it affecting us here. there's no animosity between us, not sure met him as a milligram. that may be the case, but the tanks in the troops are definitely there. even if they're still some 200 kilometers from helene as border village with u. s. defense sauces, warning invasion could be a reality within months. very earnest terms. his gulf don't. we've been expecting of russian innovation since 2014 and they're always flex in their muscles and. and i think this is just an attempt to win political concessions, probably 20 to 3. but then in a politician or in, in the border town of mill over, there's not much of that shield evidence with russian and ukrainian border guards. barely a metro part along the boundary which runs down the middle of the main street. but even here were many locals can see russia from their windows. it's cold and economic worries rather than russian tanks for now. a still weighing most heavily on people's minds law last year. how can we be in danger if the board is right there, we would have seen something already. yo, i've only seen those russian chains on t b, but we can't see or hear them here yet. no tensions here. so as negotiations between washington and moscow to resolve these tensions go into overdrive to people on the ground, this new crane seem unwilling to believe that the threat of war is real till they see those russian tanks with their own eyes. ah, the only chron variant is causing a surgeon corona, virus infections, especially in south africa, where it was fast detected. the mayor of johannesburg wants to do everything she can to stop it from spreading farther. johannesburg at night is a party town. there is no social distancing, no masks, no registering of guests at claps. local may am pull, pallets is not happy with the situation and is taking part in a police rate on the complaint of call. the 19 isn't moving forward, wave of call then i'll number the didn't happen. we very concerned about compliance . he called the regulation the music is turned off and the club closed for these guests. the party was over long before the midnight curfew, but pellets, his job is just getting started. she is the 1st black female mayer and johannesburg, a city that was once the dream destination for gold prospectors. but now, as the city in crisis pallets there wants to stop this trends. but now the pandemic is causing her further concern. she has to prepare the city for a 4th cove. it waif, a lot of systems already in place. i have also seen gaps though that need to be addressed, particularly around making sure that service delivery continues in the covered era and we need to strengthen performance management particularly well officials are having to work from home. i've heard rumors of people working from home never coming in and there's no real means of seeing if people are delivering and on what they've been employed to do. and so such things need to be a given attention to ensure that the 4th wave does not hit the city as hard as previous ones pallets is trying to convince people to get vaccinated. only $1.00 and $4.00 south africans is fully vaccinated, although there's enough vaccine available here in the so wait or township, the vaccination rate is particularly low. they say that to a nuclear foxley ted, you'll get some diseases. leg cove at 19 made their physical some of the different room do this, they do, but listen, they get think the uptake is very love and the research has shown that in terms of cases that are hospitalized that end up with complicated disease. a lot of them are the and vaccinated. pilots is a single mother and a doctor, and she fears the pandemic will take up much of her time. ah, almost all the residents of to later a city and southwest in brazil, vaccinated against the corona virus. this is despite president wilson, our stance. he long denied the pandemic existence. ah. just a few months ago doing the rounds. here was a grueling task for emergency doctor jose. i proceed. oh, so bow. so now all empty these beds were once occupied by critically ill cove. 19 patients the corridors, the hospital in the brazilian city of toledo is deserted. emergency beds. now in the storage room. it's the result of what might be brazil's most successful vaccination drive. quite a bit about what we used to have 40 into bacon patients here. now we don't have any hot and it's very rare for us these days staff to provide that level of intensive care. the cases are also much less severe than before. so we can think more carefully about how best to treat those who are sick and to give them a better prognosis. maybe some i know, but tonight in southwestern, brazil is home to some 143000 people. corona virus was right here only a few months ago, like many other parts of the country. the severe health crisis was followed by one of the fastest and most efficient vaccination drives in brazil. american pharmaceuticals, company 5, the recently launched a long term study and laid out over the course of a year. it's observing what happens when everyone in a city is vaccinated against coven 19. hello, everyone. over the age of 12, including 13 year old anna will be given the full dose pan. yeah, for the summer down some of us in apple mondell, i'm the mother tells us that her whole class got vaccinated with no bad side effects. she answered almost every one continued to go to school as far as she knew both vaccination isn't compulsory though. just hardly any skeptics here. the city council president is simply relying on people's willingness to get vaccinated your vehicle? yes or no? got a dog. i doubt that anywhere else in the world has so much expertise. and so many vaccination centers, if we had enough vaccine before the russian, not 100 percent of the population would have been fully vaccinated long ago. because we have a tradition of vaccination status of us in our so the sample to sam clark, we took toledo is serving as a test lab for the rest of the world in a year or 2. many questions could be answered here, under which conditions do virus variance develop among vaccinated people? and how long does protection last? at this to later hospital, there's growing hope the pandemic is finally coming to an end. in britain, in your mind is to be built in a former coal mining region. climate acts with a trying to stop its construction, whilst many residents in the area hope it will bring new jobs main chats and pitts could these soon be back in operation. there's a good chance the could be says div credit. he was a minor for decades and he loves his job. he was responsible for ventilation and all the culprits in white, even a small town in northern england, including this one. that was the best job i ever had in my life. miners look after themselves on the ground because it's such a dangerous, healthy fashion. when i came out of the mines, i didn't find that on the surface. call was lot produced in 1986. and then from there that was the last coal mining in cumbria know that her plans to start mining cool again for steal production. the seabed here is a veritable treasure. true and estimated 750000000 tons of coal. why under the water if you want to steal you need call the 1000000 tons of it out there on the job. why bring it from broad? when you've got to live many bushes still work still use coal. there are new technologies which use hydrogen to pursue production or recycle old steel. and these are constantly being improved. but they have yet to replace cool. the council has already given the go ahead for a new coloring on this former factory site. but claim activist carol would and her husband robin are campaigning against it. the climate change agenda is just so urgent now. i mean we are actually seeing the impact of climate disaster and it's not, it's not in the future, it's happening now. and we haven't got any wiggle room. we absolutely need to keep this colin ground. this is the position of the new mine over on the marsh on site. and that's up where that light is on the top just over there. over there, but div credit is my things. yes ticket, but the new plans, every one and reviving the many tunnels of the past the this map shows that mining was ones everywhere in the past called the ship from here. but now there are just a few private boots. the old industries have died out, making the region one of the poorest in britain. many locals hopes the new mine will bring back jobs so that that's what goes on between locals, who hope for return to the all times of high employment and others who want to move forward to a better, more environmentally friendly future. ah, nikko is in germany to learn german lloyd pinnacle. why not learn with him? t w's e learning course and eco's fake. sometimes a seed is all you need to allow big ideas to grow. we're bringing environmental conservation to life with learning pass like global ideas. we will show you how climate change and environmental conservation is taking shape around the world and how we can all make a difference. knowledge grows through sharing, download it now for free with the landscape. a reflection of a turbulent history. the cities, the mosaic of different people and languages iran, se, mountains reveal unparalleled beauty. that is, well, yeah, i saw the scenery is magnificent, but people are warm in our kezia is exceptionally a special look at a special country. iran from above starts december 27th on d. w. a. ah. just be tv. there won't be a ye gods to none of them got a form name need to tell me the data sheet people did that i needed. i should've charlotte. i'm the food doesn't like to know what her yet eager anadia beach couldn't build it into the only form and i live with you don't fall in love. one of mushroom leguinn they, they all along with giving change. i like the music is telling them up our problem about the one like about the of you know, why is you too bye bushel no go. it won't dante de la auto shot well that she'd want? well, i got it. you're gonna do to keep many stunted resound them boys. you didn't. why? how much mother was. he thought he does well, where did the kind of learning we do in foods come from him from about 300 years ago. and it came from the last and the biggest of the empires on this planet. imagine trying to run the soul without computers, without telephones, with data, hand written on pieces of paper. and travelling by ships the victorians actually did it. what the did was they created a global computer, not the made up of people target of it. i never went again. no one on somebody put it out of it still with us today. it's called the bureaucratic administrative machine. in order to have that machine running, you need lots, lots of people. they made another machine to produce those people. the school the empire has gone. so what i'll be doing with that design that produces these identical people. and what are we going to do next? lou lou ah follow up with the idea is to have a complete glass front to a building here. yes, i'm telling you don't have one that had the tv to put on what date on when they got was it what i got it, they don't, don't check it out of a bottle. i was, has had a good, you know, not on the go down me. it wasn't pulling me down wondering what it sometimes of the, how well i should, i use shorter donna. i'm not a doctor . they need to get back. and i wanted to show mammy among them beginning with oh yes, how are you a little? i know grandmother noted any of the other guy and when he did able in the avenue deleted the apartment. i wanna do like a big la ne, robert yakobelli, nancy. i went on, it will still be, i see you back bash. what did i look at to help with that? a little extra boutique. she'll know when i get my list on may get police on, on the casual. no one is it that that john global bond general with that you quote i got juggle ah, on the day and they get a wanted to get short. i need to tell you that it took his equipment wi the that that was on the shaded, just avi connect you by this alicia computer dot org. come back. i can look into the why did they don't talk bad news you with did you did me. i love, did you wanna get the great, i know that when you, when i get there, well, what about the domain or get it to one? 0 oh wow. let me put on the loan to be added to a different slum vieza. to the one that was for my hobby. i mean, one of those will be david i'm going to need to move along with the i got, i got a yellow dog at the top of the, the leak up my jo darma because you haven't been able to meet with you and what, any one of what i mean with a, a boss, not all of the name i with do, we do it a lot of the stuff with them. we don't want to be spare parts for the great human computer. do we? so we need to design a future for learning what is now called the school in the cloud is i think a combination of a lot of surprises which have come to experiments in the last 15 years. ah, the whole, the wall experiment was an accident. i got this job teaching people how to write computer programs. one day i decided that i wanted to give a computer to some children mindy, because feel a little irritated about the fact that i was in a nice job in a nice place. and there are all these kids who didn't have anything at all. mm. i made a hole in the, in the boundary wall of the slum next to my office and stuck a computer inside it just to see what will happen. i connected high speed internet do it. it's about 3 feet off the ground, turned it on and left it there in back after a couple of months, found it play games on it. and this army, they said we want to foster processor and a mentor mouse that resides were that groups of children without any adult supervision and figure out how to use a computer. it's not a big deal to be, but it was a big deal in 1999. and that the do this quite rapidly. it's not as though every child is learning everything. they groupie and the succeeding in groups. the 1st thought that came to my mind was of insects because insects do the same thing. i mean these can build exigence together, but no individual be could build i i had no background in education at all. i had no option left but to use the only subject they knew which was physics, to try and explain what was happening. i started to read up on the audio systems systems. we don't have any order in and under certain circumstances, the farm maintenance. ah, if you have the completely ordered condition, then nothing much happens, then what in physics you'd go static equilibrium. and then you could have a completely chaotic situation and things happen totally at random in a way that's also not very interesting. but in between the 2, there is a order line which physicists call the edge of chaos. and at the edge of chaos, everything happens. you get spontaneous order, with derby limbs, you get flo, you get forces coming in and structure. the beauty i, i had no hesitation than in saying that, but i've seen that and the hole in the or how to leave your take on day one. and then this want in his order starts to appear with different children doing different things. his kids without supervision left alone with an unknown machine in an unknown notion of information are behaving like a hive or like a thunderstorm. could it be that learning is something that happens to people when they're at the edge of chaos. the hole in the wall was sufficiently unexpected that i needed to drop whatever else i was doing. it was there was no way to continue being a nice satisfied computer program. and i had to find out how they were doing that. that led to a whole series of experiments and finally all the way from new delhi to new castle . oh, my wish really was to make a facility for children where they can learn in groups and the facility which would not look like a classroom. it's a facility which is practically unbound. it would be called the school in the cloud by a tag attend. this is your 1st lesson and project design. i'm really pleased that you chose to do this subject as an option, choice fiduciary phase. and today's less than, i'm gonna tell you a bit about the example that you going to do, cuz it's important that you understand that in the context of secondary education today, where we're, there's an increasingly prescriptive list of content that students have to cover. i don't think that schools have an answer yet to how they use the internet in a meaningful way. again, we're actually moving away from something like the internet being a useful resource. the best way to prepare them for the exam is just constantly going over the content. practice, practice, practice. it seems a bit relentless, i believe, very strong, nay. that my responsibility is to make lifelong learners. i contacted to garza and said how interested i was in the hole in the wolf project where they were engaged in learning. they're excited about this. i wanted bass. i don't know how to boot it school in the globe because i've never been taught i didn't quite know who it was. so like i went away and research and i found out who he was and i was really surprised that he would come to our school. this is the basic hardware. since we got 6 computer, the board, one screen with skype and blue and big screen with the connect the next box. so i'm trying to figure out a design where to be easy to cluster around computers. a single place which really speaking belongs to children and is run by children. and then we'll see where it goes. so that's what's going on. it's a great big experiment. thing is, what should the place look like? that's what we going to discuss. the kind of right, right kind of warm if it has like or if that was in the squishy chairs like the sun and grass from the bowls and maybe like white boards, all chill pole. it's something that can like almost interact with them. circular tables because the table lay out in some departments are pretty rubbish for group work. it's just a very old tired classroom. and we took the children in that i just said, right, if you had to find a room filename, what would you want? this is really cool. no, none of them that you've designed is going to be up. i'm really looking forward to it because i just wanted say how it all works and runs when it's up and running with. oh wow. good. hi, this is it. i just hadn't said at sullivans mint. nice, 30 minute. yeah, i'm just dying to see the children in here like oh oh oh my god and for the good thing, since that on the computer, the age to just right up to one and start doing from then is so body a. i know there'd be a lot of people who be suggesting a lot of things that they could do. but if you suggest something to a child, it always be clothes, things that that child could have done if you had not suggested i follow. 2 the yellow pine needle doggin, it's hello la, how is it you know the proposition that if you just give kids a piece of technology they will learn is attractive, but it's not borne out and i will develop world of the developing world as scenes together talk many conferences and i was quite impressed with the idea because it was bold if not a bit utopian. but with all these ideas you really got to test them on the ground. unlike most like events, i actually went to see a hole in all projects and was shocked at was so because there were literally holes in the walls. there were no computers lose walls and it lasted 3 months. and the people in the school were quite bitter. you know, a team had arrived drilled for holes in the wall of the school. the internet connections barely if ever worked. the kids just played games on them and the whole thing dropped off after 3 months. this me actually result on a form of education colonialism where we just parachute shiny objects into these countries and hope for the best of it's not as though beloved criticism, i think it makes my blood boil that go what it is, right? i mean, that would be devastating if you look for one of the old hole in the wall sites in india, it would not be working. maybe the structures in there was an empty hole with no computer and it wasn't sustainable. but the hole in the wall is the concept. the fact that children can self organize their learning and only in to me that was established by the reason of experiment, experiments in the english schools. they really explained a lot to me, which i perhaps would not have learnt in india. the 1st thought that came into my mind is that who died not drive this process with questions we called and soul. so i leave the self organized learning environment. once you introduce the concept of the soul, then you have to raise a question. generally in the form of i wonder why and i wonder what if you design the question right? the question will do the job for you. it will seen a deer drop, right? so my question is, wire those drops pointy at the top, and roundish at the bottom. okay, if you go, then i really base so it must be all like lawn. and then like as it comes to, pretty much in it it see the can you drop it down there? yeah, the deal uncertain involve do concepts, gravity and surface tension and lead them through the atmosphere because of gravity at raindrops have mall flattened to bottom and around and talk until they are willing to pound with us, increase the pressure on the button and resistance is the point event, it's really hard to start off with because sometimes you just don't get it. it almost resemble a fish that's been thrown on it would beach if flopping around aimlessly for about half an hour and then you'd finally get into the law. oh, i'd say i really like it because it's independent. sometimes your friends can teach him more than your teacher connor in a certain way. if i couldn't get the basic been sebu accepted that given the presence of the internet. if children are allowed to wander in a chaotic fashion, they will crystallize around big ideas. so how do you know any of these websites so valuable knowledge that i do not look like a website? you can trust that. i think teachers do feel threatened by it. as though cigar was saying, we don't need teachers anymore, and that's not how i see so little. i think the role of a teacher in a soul is vital not to help them find an answer, but to help them understand how to construct an answer to a ready big question. right, this is my big question for you. a little bit about just imagine, what would life be like in the future? could robots ever replace humans? that's your big question. you're going to work together as a group, and at the end of the lesson, each of the groups is gonna tell me what they found out. ah ah, shaun. how you spell the rober? oh, wrong me, the wrong kind of the dimension. ok to go up to a group and say, well why don't you try this keyword or what have you found, sean? do you know? look at park the book click. the child could hear that sentence as do not try any of the. so you're actually restricting, rather than guiding yeah, i've been teaching 15 years now. and that confidence to step back from the relationship that you have normally as a teacher in front of the classroom and be a part of the learning on the sidelines. has changed the way i teach is this combination of big question and collaborative work in the internet and fewer computers than students so that they have to collaborate. this is something that feels different to teachers. currently, we can get took over by robots as well. you know what right now, how did the know what to do when the op talk? how did you know, what is some things i don't know for small smart robots, robots, cur, fagan rob to do anything in a soul? it's the interaction between the children which is causing all this to happen. it's the conversations amongst themselves that really generates the learning that they do, if you will let sort of reflect the way no jobs in the world will, but couldn't never take over what. because called just nevada and back we feel that log to the got a need, buckwheat, a lot of my work gets interpreted as oh, he doesn't want any teaches any read and he thinks that schools are obsolete and therefore should be done away with i wonder whether the kids were learning anything or whether they were regurgitating things that they were finding on wikipedia. anytime he finishes with us, we don't have to read. we're going to have to write. we don't have to think this misunderstanding, but says that i'm trying to say teachers are not required which is completely wrong . that's not what i'm saying at all. i'm saying the teacher has to do something different. the teacher has to convert a content into a question that would enable the learner to derive that content a combo. that is to kids who god jenny, jenny, natalie, he go to look a little hung up on my eyes to be good at dph job. it. he shows shasky drama. your good big possess 2 fear color. dal. what is sherony? wirebaugh to hire shop. good in the day is a dog. good luck with when the 1st dog. then you have this spontaneous group formation. and then after a while, you find this kind of flocking everybody's on to one group, busy with that group as found something interesting. and then the d flog. and then if i knew to follow up with that, you know, go about and what to look for. i look, i want to go with my guys. it was that the i'm louise will let suddenly, the little delaware to the lot of those. they gotta go. have you got other politically look a little guy. look it up. be because of the got we got together about a little bit on look up what is happening? yeah. you bought good. what i got please on that go. but as a doke i got i got a got a la ah ah. ready ah ah ah, he did you tommy of me with oh, did you want me? i saw an article about augusta and he wanted retired teachers to chat to chosen in india. and before i knew it, i was talking to children in chicago. i wanted to test the limits of the system. fam, fabulous speaking children in a south indian village beach themselves. biotechnology in english, on their own. i put in poland, oil computers, there downloaded all kinds of stuff on the internet about d n. a replication came back after 2 months and i give them a test. the scores had gone up from 0 to 30 percent a but 20 percent is affected. how do i get them to bus. ready encouragement seems to be the key. i couldn't find the teacher. what i did find was a friend that they had a 22 year old girl who was an accountant. i said use the method of the grandmother to stand behind them whenever they do anything you just say, well wow, i mean, how did you do that? what's the next page? gosh, when i was your age, i could have never done that. i mean, you know what granny's do. so she did that for 2 more months. the scores jumped to 50 percent, which is what the bar schools of new delhi with the trend biotechnology teacher were getting for an adult to say to a child. i know a very interesting question. i don't know the answer does something to a child who thinks that there is a possibility to.
