How to escape education's death valley | Sir Ken Robinson
Trki, Kody, Cheaty do
Sir Ken Robinson outlines 3 principles crucial for the human mind to flourish -- and how current education culture works against them. In a funny, stirring talk he tells us how to get out of the educational "death valley" we now face, and how to nurture our youngest generations with a climate of possibility.

최근에 '인벤톨로지'라고 발명학에 대한 책이 나왔는데, 부제에 '눈엣가시들의 역사'라는 문구가 돋보이더라.... 언제나 교육은 우리의 창의력을 존중해줄까....

We waste more time in our education system taking map tests twice a year parc testing. Replacing teachers with subs so they can go to meetings. Students just want there teachers in the classroom.

Don't teach what to learn rather how to learn and how to think

Great speech, we need leaders to be and to think like you, Sir Robinson

Good Quotes:
On education: “It is not a cost, but an investment.”
On high school drop-outs: “It costs a lot to mop-up the damage.”
“Education is based on conformity, even though each of your children are vastly different.”
“If you set kids down to do low-grade clerical work, don’t be surprised if they start to fidget. They are not suffering from psychological conditions, they are suffering from childhood.”
“Teaching is a creative profession, not a delivery system.”
“I had an old friend, very old in fact, he’s dead – that’s as old as it gets, I’m afraid...”
He suggests individualized education, but even that fails in an inadequate philosophical environment that has not progressed beyond subjective values – meaning the entire problem is philosophical (everything always gets back to philosophy) (hence my developing an objective value-based philosophy, and a new philosophical landscape around it, which would not only guide education but motivate students).
“The problem with education in America is the ‘command and control’ system” where bureaucrats remove teacher and student discretion.”
“Learning in America is like sailing into a headwind (the current ‘system’) - it gets done in spite of the system.”
“Death Valley isn’t dead, it is dormant, waiting for the right conditions“ (an analogy for our student population).
“Great leaders know that.”
“Benjamin Franklin said there are three types of people in the world, those that are immovable, those that will move, and those that are movers, and if we can encourage more movers, that would be a Movement, and if the Movement is strong enough, that would be a Revolution, and that’s what we need.”
My Conclusion: If you have not adequately philosophically answered the Greatest of the Great Questions of Life, that of “Why bother?” then nothing you do will improve education or human life on earth, or our chances of survival in a harsh and deadly universe (just to give you a clue). -
I love this video, thank you, I'm going to share this on my channel and with everyone I think it will help.

Robinson makes great points, ones with which many people agree. To get from where we are now to an improved version of the system that adheres more closely to what Robinson is saying, what action should be taken to make the actual change? Because change won't happen without acting upon good ideas such as the ones discussed in this talk.

Venus Project is the only solution

In a pervious lecture,. he mentioned that a degree used to mean a guaranteed job and it no longer does. He forgot to mention the cost of a degree has risen man times what it should be and once was. Is there a connection there perhaps? Oh wait. That's right. We Americans don't understand irony.

16:35 The analogue with Death Valley is genius and describes our whole society which is a Death Valley in many ways and could be transformed positively if just give people the chance. This is a great speech!

I agree that childrens' creativity should be allowed more room and attention in the classroom. However, and I think Robinson touches on this in the talk, I think the key is to inspire critical thinking in children. Education as it is today in most parts of the world, as far as I know, doesn't really do this until the university level (and kids are capable of such thinking at a much younger age). If we not only say "listen kids, this is how it is", but also give them the tools to view information critically and as something that is not absolute, I'm hopeful that creativity would follow naturally and that it would lead to a more empathetic world, less filled with fear and hatred.

I'm from South Korea. As he says, We spend a lot of money and time in education and think of it as an investment. But, the purpose is to help students to get high scores on standardized tests , especially " Korea College Entrance Exam". So, we evaluate teachers based on the number of their students who have succeeded in entering so-called "prestigious universities". I'm sure we don't educate students, but train them to be the best test-takers. It has nothing to do with "discovering creativity and distinct talents in each of us"

I'm probably older than he is, and I'm a HS dropout. I existed in school....just barely. Made it through 10th grade and left. I survived by reading. Some of my teachers made a deal with me, I could do anything I wanted if I didn't disturb the class. That was ok, but, they really could have helped me if they had suggested the books I read instead of letting me just read books that I could read in an hour that were fun, but provided no real education or stimulus. So, I ended up getting a BS, have more than enough hours for a masters with no reason to get it. Still don't have a HS diploma. And home schooled my 6 children.
