Sir Ken

This was a funny little movie.. i enjoyed it, and also found some of the things he discussed very profound. education is diverse, everyone learns differently whether it be through sound, visual, touch, etc. I also agree with him that intelligence is interactive. We have labeled children o be cookie cutter students and not let them explore different way of learning. Everyone is taught and pushed out into the real world like being a product manufactured in a plant. Everyone isn't the same though. We should celebrate the gift of imagination wisely, and not see children as different or not normal but exceptional.

  1. And how do we avoid cooky cutting teaching? Can the use of technology help? What does a teacher need to know, be able to do, and value to foster imagination and creativity in their students. Think about it, and when you have some compelling ideas, share them with us in your blog!
