‘Creativity is as important as literacy’

Posted on January 28th, 2011 by steve

‘Sir Ken Robinson makes an entertaining and profoundly moving case for creating an education system that nurtures (rather than undermines) creativity.’

Traditional education is set up to suck creativity out of us; discourage independent thought. Teaches us to follow many procedures, many rules.

And I see the results of this every day that I’m in a classroom. By the time students get to the college level, creativity is often simply turned off. Ken Robinson addresses this (above) – the importance of making mistakes – and more.
