The Educational System is Missing the Mark
It's not necessary for me to write a lot about this at this time. Instead, I'd love it if folks would watch a 20 minute video which pretty much says what needs to be considered by leaders today who make decisions in education.
I believe that the arts have been and continue to be downplayed in our educational system at our own peril. I also believe that technology can play a critical role creating the kind of artistic experiences needed in our educational system today. Listen to what Sir Ken Robinson has to say in his TED Talk, and judge for yourself. 0 comments from 0 users
