Do Schools Kill Creativity?

I found this conference very interesting and fun, as Sir Ken Robinson is a very fun way to give his presentation on the topic "Do Schools Kill Creativity?".

The stresses that children have a tremendous talent, and we waste it ruthlessly, because it does not consider that creativity is as important as literacy. Furthermore, he stressed that when small children are not afraid to make mistakes, but the stigma education system error, so the adults become fearful, afraid to make mistakes.

Stresses that all the educational systems of the land choose their subjects hierarchically in the same way, placing first in mathematics, languages and humanities, and secondly, with minor arts.

It educates children to educate professionals, away from things like that because they will not work. This is also a reality that we live in our country, which stigmatizes people who study art professionally, as well as to those studying education. Since races are rated poorly.

Sir Ken Robinson, noted that today, many professionals are out of work, as before, the professionals who were not employed did not want to work today, have a professional degree is not sufficient, because today you need to have a graduate or postgraduate students to get a good job. This shows that the structure of education is changing, and we must change with it and do not keep old concepts that do not suit our new society.
