Divergent Thinking...

RSA Animate – Changing Education Paradigms Ah, here is a brilliant video, a speech by Sir Ken Robinson which explores the changing paradigms of Enducation. What do we expect of education? What do we mean when we say the word?  What sort of people are we seeking to create? -- one of his most cogent comments is 'we are getting our children through education by anesthetizing them'... 'we put them through schools in batches'... Yippee! He is talking in favor of homeschooling, believe it or not. He is talking about teaching children as individuals, valuing them as people, teaching to their strengths and valuing them for who they are. Yippee!!!!
