Ken Robinson--- How school kills creativity


Robinson presents the idea that the current public education system condemns creativity after a certain point in a student’s career, and that this is a wrongdoing for their future. He used many personal experiences and humor to connect with his audience. Sometimes he would even get slightly off track of the main point to tell a funny story, or to run with an idea the audience found interesting. He has a very informal style of speaking with his audience, and relates to them well through his stories and the way he tells them. Most importantly, he demonstrates how the creativity of a student is something that should be nurtured, and encouraged, rather than squashed down to accommodate for more academic thinking. This directly applies to the education system, and how this is an aspect that needs reform in many places all over the world. Creativity is vital to the success of the future, and cannot be quelled.
