This TED talk was highlighted to me by a blogging friend Cynus at http://madmanstwilight.wordpress.com , it is a talk that took place in 2007. Sir Ken Robinson makes an entertaining and profoundly moving case for creating an education system that nurtures (rather than undermines) creativity.
It’s very entertaining, very funny and hits the nail on the head re education and what we should be focussing on for the future of education….Please watch 🙂
Namaste
Mark
Thanks for the reference. I appreciate all that you do and I am glad that you liked the video.
🙂 You are welcome my friend
I think the education system, as it is designed, really does kill creativity. For the most part, what is taught is memorization, not THINKING.
Amen to that my friend :
I agree 100% with Ken Robinson. Schools today are killing creativity. The greatest minds in the world are some of the most creative. If they weren’t we would still be back in the caveman days. Inventions would not be invented, worlds would not progress, and people would have no dreams. We need to re-energize the creative mind. Excellent post.
Thanks Frank 🙂
