Blog Post #10

I enjoyed watching the Youtube video by Sir Ken Robinson entitled: Bring on the Education Revolution. He explained how people have not identified what their talent is or in some cases, not using it as they should. Instead of schools promoting diversity of talent, the schools are promoting a standardized, mechanical process of learning. He suggests that we change the current model from evolution to revolution.

One thing that I learned from his video is that as teachers, we should create an environment where children will flourish. In a sense, a more personalized approach to learning. As I have learned, there are many different learning styles and techniques and it takes trying new things to see what will be the most effective way to reach students. We need an innovative, creative, think-outside-the-box approach to create a passion for learning.

  1. Where are the alt/title modifiers for your picture? There's no excuse for not having them at this point in the semester! Remember that alt/title mods are required for every picture.

  2. I enjoyed reading your post about Sir Ken Robinson's speech at TED. I also think that education should be more individual based instead of the cookie cuter education that some schools use. You did a very good job summing up what Sir Ken Robinson said in his Speech. I agree with you that "we need an innovative, creative, think-out-side the box approach to create a passion for learning". The only thing you may have forgotten to put in your post was the alt/title modifiers for your picture. If you do not know how you can email me and I can walk you through it.
    Thank you for sharing.
