Sir Ken Robinson: Bring on the Learning Revolution
Summary:
In this poignant, funny follow-up to his fabled 2006 talk, Sir Ken Robinson makes the case for a radical shift from standardized schools to personalized learning -- creating conditions where kids' natural talents can flourish.
Creativity expert Sir Ken Robinson challenges the way we're educating our children. He champions a radical rethink of our school systems, to cultivate creativity and acknowledge multiple types of intelligence
Key Points:
- You are what you do. Should actually be.........not *what* you do, but *who* you are
- human communities depend on a diversity of talent not a singular conception of ability
- we have built our education on the model of fast food where everything is standardized...............and we have suffered for it
- human flourishing is not a mechanical process, it is an organic process
- our children spread their dreams at our feet, we should tread softly
I just love him. That is all.
