I've just watched a video linked to from WeBreakStuff's 'weekly inspiration' and it truly was inspiring. It was a talk by Sir Ken Robinson on creativity in education, the gist of it being about how education stifles creativity to the point where most children have lost their creativity by the time they leave school.
It's an excellently-delivered talk, with plenty of humour to go along with some very good points. It got me thinking back the few years to when I was in school - I was pushed out of doing an Art A-Level (as an extra, so wouldn't have meant one less 'academic' subject). Luckily I was quite good at the academic stuff too, but it was a setback to my more creative, arty side.
Anyway, watch the video, it's great.
[...] After reading a post Adam made I watched the video of Sir Ken Robinson presentation about education. I have to say I was fascinated by it and indeed a lot of it I feel strongly about. [...]
