Robin has mentioned in other classes about a website where you can watch some really amazing videos. It's http://www.ted.com/.
In the video below, Ken Robinson talks about how schools are killing creativity and that we need to change how we educate children because the world we're trying to prepare them for doesn't exist yet. Okay, I know the future doesn't exist yet but what he's talking about is that we have no idea what technology or innovation is going to change the world next.
I've talked a lot about this in my blog. Check out the Shift Happens post. I want my son to be prepared to take on any kind of world with a fresh perspective and a creative mind. Listening to Ken is inspiring and frightening because it's all so true. Have a look and tell me what you think.
