Good morning ,everyone! This semester has started officially today . Glad to see you here. Just an annucement ,say hi to the extension school students. Last time I say hi to New Zealand .Today we are saying hi to Ireland.
In terms of sectioning ,for the undergrads and graduate students here, you will get email from Sean tomarrow.And you'll put in the section preference.We are sectioning this weekend so it will be important to submit top preferences. And next week we are starting .
So last time ,if you remember question that we ask the guiding question was " why positive psychology" I mentioned three reasons: why we need it as a independent field that opposed to just being "well,let't do some studies on happiness,let's do some studies on relationships",as it is always being done. 不想像人们一贯人们做的那样
The reason why we need positive psychology is to to shift the pendulum from 1:21 ratio that we have today : for everyone one study on happiness and wellbeing. and 21 stuay on depression and anxiety.We want to shift the pendulum slightly.And I mention three reasons: why we want to shift this pendulum despite the fact that there are rising levels of depression around the world, that anxiety has become a epidemic globally——on college campuses in United States,china or Australia , UK. Despite that fact I argue that we need to shift the pendulum and do more "positive research",or in other words, research that focuses on what works. 尽管如此，我认为我们仍然需要去改变那个比例并且多做一些积极的研究，换句话说，几种研究可行的事。
And the reason is the first reason we gave and we are just finishing up is because the question that we ask, whether it's the research questons that we aske or the questions we ask of ourselves or our partners ,matter.If our only question,or primarily our questions are "what is not working "or "what's the problem","why are so many kids failing as a result of their circumstances? "If we only ask these questions,we will miss ,literally miss an important part of reality ,just like you missed the children on the bus in the exercise.

精彩的句子：
A seed, a strength, a virtue, a competence, that other teachers did not see. And when we don't see the seed of greatness. When we don't water it and shed a light on it, it withers and dies, which is unfortunately the fate of most human potential.
Questions make differences. 我觉得这句基本上是教授前到目前为止说的中心思想。
