Changing Education Paradigms

This animation was adapted from a talk given at the RSA by Sir Ken Robinson, world-renowned education and creativity expert.

Why don't we get the best out of children? Sir Ken Robinson argues that it's because we've been educated to become good workers, rather than creative thinkers. Students with restless minds and bodies -- far from being cultivated for their energy and curiosity -- are ignored or even stigmatized, with terrible consequences. "We are educating people out of their creativity," Robinson says.
