Education Revolution

Here is the second post on the problems with our schools, problems that arise not from our teachers or students but the larger system in which our teachers and students live. Ken Robinson was invited to address the Royal Society for the Encouragement of the Arts, Manufactures, and Commerce (RSA) on the changing paradigms in education. His address, nearly an hour, can be found at the following link. Below, however, I’ve posted a cleverly animated – and greatly edited – 11 minute version that captures the heart of his talk. Again, I’d invite you to consider the implications for the way we educate our children and grandchildren to meet a changing and challenging world, and I’d encourage you to share it with others interested in education.
