Sir Ken Robinson: Do schools kill creativity?

This is worth taking the time to listen to with an open mind!

Here are a few quotes from the clip that really stuck out to me:

“Creativity is as important as literacy.”

“If you are not prepared to be wrong you will never come up with anything original.”

“The university has designed the system in their image.”

“We now have academic inflation.”

“According to the national education systems, mistakes are the worse thing you can make.”

Titus 2:3 says that we are to be "...teachers of good things...". We believe that part of these good things are practical skills that we all need in every day life to care for our family and neighbors. One of our primary responsibilities as parents is equip our children with the skills and tools to one day be productive, well rounded adults. Children need to be exposed to many different areas of work. Not only should they know how to work, but they should want to work. May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish the work of our hands for us- yes, establish the work of our hands. Psalm 90:17
