Sir Ken Robinson-TED Talk
Throughout Sir Ken Robinson's talk, he mentioned some very good points. Does school kill creativity? I think school does kill creativity. Throughout school, students are required to take classes like Science, History, Math, etc., but what about exploratory's or electives? In some schools classes like yearbook, agriculture, band, chorus, etc. are offered. In college you have a couple of electives. But not enough to make the students feel the excitment or fun that is really in school. I believe if more creativity is offered in school, the students would feel more excited to learn and to attend school. The teachers and the students can come together and bring more creativity into the schools. Maybe more after school programs or more activities to do at school could change things. Schools also kill creativity with SOLs. I know kids are suppose to learn, but they more test; the more creativity is killed.
