education - Sir Ken Robinson

go watch this http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/66

its a talk by Robinson on education and creativity. its fantastic!
here's an blurb if the link doesnt work:


Why don't we get the best out of people? Sir Ken Robinson argues that it's because we've been educated to become good workers, rather than creative thinkers. Students with restless minds and bodies -- far from being cultivated for their energy and curiosity -- are ignored or even stigmatized, with terrible consequences. "We are educating people out of their creativity," Robinson says.


cheers,
