Ken Robinson says schools kill creativity

On the link http://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity.html yoy can see a video called "Ken Robinson says schools kill creativity". Today, I will make a reviwe and a comment about this video.
It was very difficult to me to understand the video because Ken Robinson has an english accent.
Ken Robinson is a man about 50 years olds.
In his conference, the man review this themes:
1) Extraordinary of human crativity
2) The future (¿how we make planes?)
3) The education.
4) The human intelligence.

Sometimes he appears like a comediant, but he is saying something important and serious.
The central argument is: Ken Robinson question himself and the audience about the education system that its present all around the word. He affirms that this system nurtures creativity. It seems that the adults are loosing innovation capacity, and principally because this system prepares people to the work world, and not for a development for there habilities. He said that there is “People that have to move to think”.

  1. Natalia,
    Yes, he resorts to humour to keep the audience engaged, but, as you said he is talking about serious matters like the important role of creativity in our lives and how it has been neglected in our educational systems. And for you to create you have to stop being frozen still because you are afraid of making mistakes. If you had been afraid of making mistakes, would you have been able to write your posts? Certainly not.

    Now, here you have some tasks:
    a) (It was very difficult to me to understand the video): Can you correct one word here? (Look at my comments on your post ‘The best in my field’)
    b) Compare ‘this’ / ‘ these’ and correct the following: “this themes”

  2. And another thing, the current educational system doesn't nurture creativity, quite the contrary, it hinders, restricts it instead.
