Creativity in our education system

In his latest book, Out of Our Minds: The Power of Being Creative, Sir Ken Robinson argues that cultivating our natural powers of imagination, creativity and innovation is essential to our personal well being. It is quintessential to the health and sustainability of organisations and communities everywhere. Yet many of us leave school or university with no real idea of our creative abilities and strengths. One of the most important question for a teacher would be – How to teach a student to be creative and an out-of-the-box thinker?

In this Video, Sir Ken Robinson makes an entertaining and profoundly moving case for creating an education system that nurtures creativity.
