place three video of Sir Ken Robinson at the TED conference (small nonprofit established in 1984 to circulate ideas and opinions uniting three worlds, technology, entertainment and design).
Robinson is a former college professor and talk about creativity, talent and education, supporting the theory that all school systems in the world are not fit to train tomorrow's citizens, as based on the educational needs of a society that no longer exists, industrial one - linear, predictable - and as such can not be reformed because it would involve only the improvement of a system, however, doomed to failure in a world complex and unpredictable.
In the future men will increasingly be able to draw with both hands the gift of creativity to be able to respond quickly to environmental challenges, which will always be different and for which no longer sufficient experience. But the school today is not the problem of bringing out the talent, let alone to stimulate creativity ... that indeed is often perceived as deviant. The guiding principles of the modern school, which was originally aligned with social needs, are now accepted dogma, something now taken for granted, needed, such as natural laws and no longer subject to critical examination.
By its ironic verve, Robinson tends to the small public traps that make you think about how many useless rules are subject to which we freely without thinking ... Solutions? Perhaps the most obvious, the former professor offers a real breakthrough, a breakthrough came from a profound reflection on the meaning and function of the school in a complex and unpredictable. And how he's wrong?
Enjoy!
