Sir Ken Robinson #2 (TED)

An amazing speach - one that should give us a great start of February. Recorded 4 years after the Creativity speach this one deals with education systems too. I am not sure how many people from the school boards have watched these less than 20 minutes of pure grace and elegance, but I sure hope many will do. It describes perfectly the current situation - globally.

About the speaker:
A visionary cultural leader, Sir Ken led the British government's 1998 advisory committee on creative and cultural education, a massive inquiry into the significance of creativity in the educational system and the economy, and was knighted in 2003 for his achievements.



Thread lightly on our children's dreams!

  1. I love TED speeches. They're always full of great and interesting ideas.

    Our education systems need a serious restructuring, and Sir Ken really illustrates the problem extremely clearly, with a touch of humour.
