I am very interested to comment on the creativity expert Sir Ken Robinson`s talk.
The speech was brilliant and I agree with most of ideas that he said. He challenges the way we're educating our children. As he said we have to rethink of our school systems in order to cultivate creativity and knowledge.
"We are educating people out of their creativity," Robinson says. Why don't we get the best out of people?
Looking back on my own experience in school, I and my classmates were put inside in a little room for creativity between authoritative, confucius and conservative education environment.
In short, we are all unique and it takes an extraordinary gift to recognize what it is that makes each child special and to help bring out their talents. Education needs to be more inclusive to new ideas, cultures, technologies.
ohh yeah... but yu could have done something at home! I used to do that... my drawings and writings that I threw away after.... maybe i have some thing in some place...
ReplyDeleteI agree that you could do those things at home as Marta says. However, this doesn't justify the fact that schools kill creativity. Like you I think young student's energy and curiosity should be put to better use.
ReplyDeleteWhen are we going to see Marta's drawings?
that colour is going to kill my eyes!
