Changing education paradigms. Yes please!

October 29th, 2010

By coincidence I got two emails yesterday, both featuring Sir Ken Robinson. One brought news of the upcoming Earlyarts Annual International Un-Conference, at which Sir Ken is the keynote speaker. The other was from our very own guest blogger Bev Morton with a message saying ‘I think you’ll like this’ – and a link to a presentation by Sir Ken. Well I did like it. I liked it so much I re-played it again today and then I thought I’d pass it on. So here’s the link.

Suffice it to say that evidently 98% of pre-school children are ‘genius’ divergent thinkers. After that alas, they get educated.

If you’d like to find out more about the Earlyarts Annual International Un-Conference, you’ll find it on our events page here.

We seem to be on a roll here – nurturing creativity, collaboration (the stuff of growth), and how they come together. Once again – happy week-end to you all.
