Ken Robinson believes that students in today's world are not being able to use their own creativity. What would your opinion be when you think of teachers and how they are teaching their students these days?
This TED talk intrigued me first off because just by reading the title i automatically agreed with what i thought he was going to be talking about mostly. This then made me think about what schools could do different instead of taking the creativity and imagination of ones mind. This video raises many questions i can ask myself like, why has the curriculum changed? Shouldn't these children in the new century be able to have the same goals as some people 20 years ago who were students? Have teachers taken out a curriculum where students have it all handed it to them and they do not have to be imaginative? Ken Robinson says " Suddenly degrees aren't worth anything, when i was a student if you had a degree you had a job. If you didn't have a job its because you didn't want one." This means that yes you can get through school, but does a degree matter these days? I believe that when you have a degree then you get into a 4 year college which gives you an occupation in the end. A question I have for you as the reader is do you think that schools have changed over time looking at the curriculum? If so how and what do you think has changed about it?
