On my previous post “Stop that…”, Shirley Winkle (aka my kid sister’s pseudonym) suggested two very thought provoking videos about education. I loved them so much I felt it was worth giving them their own post.
First let me preface them by saying that they are absolutely wonderful. I will not pretend to disguise my enthusiasm under layers of objectivity. Not only are they immensely thought provoking, but they are funny. Funny in a way that captures your imagination as well as your laughter. Both of these were found on TED, which I would encourage you to check out as well if you are interested in exercising your brain.
Taylor Mali also has a wonderful site chock full of content. Mali is an award winning poet, and “What Teachers Make” is only a small portion of his repertoire. I would definitely recommend you check it out. I’m still pouring over stuff myself.
Ken Robinson also have an absolutely beautiful site that focuses on Creativity. He also contributes to the Imagine It! project, which I find absolutely fascinating. I think I’m going to have to find his book too. My curiosity is certainly piqued.
I certainly hope you enjoyed these videos as much as I have. Please let me know what you think about these two videos. Is your opinion of education vastly different?
