Do schools kill creativity?

There are three topics treated in the conference:
1) The extraordinary evidence of the creativity humanizes
2) The uncertainty that this produces on the future
3) The extraordinary capacity of the children. The capacity of innovation

The exhibition of Sir Ken Robinson centres on this capacity of the children and on how we have wasted it across the educational current system. First he indicates that the creativity must have the same importance that the literacy since, if the children lack fear of being wrong this it makes them come to original results.

The educational systems prepare the people with the idea of that a mistake can be the worst thing that can happen and as result to remove the people of their creative capacity; there are taught they out of this capacity because there is prioritized what is taught stopping in last place to the arts. In addition it has been as intention creates university teachers.

This has a reason: the educational system is based on the idea of academic capacity, one removes the people what him pleases with the argument of “you will never obtain work doing it … " and the whole system is based on this capacity enclosedly the same university. And since we all are plunged in a long process to the university you present with talent (and stigmatized with the previous argument) they think that they cannot come to it. Therefore we have to rethink as we see to the intelligence and how we are educating our children valuing their creativity and making ourselves responsible for that they will see the future and we not.

    3) The extraordinary capacity of (the) children. The ?M capacity of innovation

    The exhibition of Sir Ken Robinson centres on this capacity of the children and on how we have wasted it across the educational current WO system.
