Talk Review




Dear all:

Today's post is a topic we all feel strongly about. Education

This week we are taking a look at the TED website. Please visit:

http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity.html

You have to visit it, watch Sir Ken Robinson's talk "Do Schools Kill Creativity" ,

You can use subtitles in ENGLISH, if you need to.
Then write a 230 words review. What do you think of his talk? How do you feel about it? Develop ideas based on the talk.
I hope you enjoy it.

  2. This video is very interesting, because is true! in a lot of current schools, the traditional education, kills the children creativity imposing strict work rules where all kids can't express what they know or what they feel about something, across of the classworks, art, etc...

    This is an important problem that we MUST to change now!

  3. A new point of view! Always education is an interesting and polemic topic, and it´s more polemic when we watch Sir Ken Robinson's talk. Creativity is important, but is not more important that math o language, I think.

  12. Hi Teacher:
    I think that this topic and the video are very interesting. We must to start to ask us, what kind of education we are receiving...

    Education... I would say "standardization"

    Bye!!

  13. Thank you teacher for continuing putting topics of education... I also think that the creativity has not been an important topic for the educational system because it is very worried of his intentions of market: the production....

    It was an entertaining and interesting conference
