TEDTalks. Sir Ken Robinson, Do Schools Kill Creativity?
Description
Why don't we get the best out of people? Author/educator Sir Ken Robinson argues that it's because we've been educated to become good workers instead of creative thinkers. In this TEDTalk, Robinson makes an entertaining and profoundly moving case for creating an education system that cultivates creativity and acknowledges multiple types of intelligence. An excellent discussion-starter in the areas of teacher education, sociology, public policy, and educational psychology.
