Hi everyone!
Today I will
talk you about the video of Ken Robinson of the creativity. I have seen a talk
of him in TED before, a video that illustrate the things that he is saying. And
he explains in a better way some concepts like the ADHD disorder and how
schools treat children and push them to calm "to help them study".
When they really are causing them the lost of their creativity and self
expression making them think that don't show your artistic part is the correct
thing, that the scientific and mathematic is the thing that matters in life, in
the future and in their jobs.
We know that
the cause of things is the system of education; therefore, teachers and
classmates are the principal cause of this treat to students. I have my own
experience that has to do with embarrassing their students than directly
restricting their creativity. Anyway I think that it causes the same
consequence, when you embarrass someone you make them shy and their never feel
secure to say or feel something and be able to express it to someone else.
Finally there
are two things that cause problems with the self growth: the lack of
stimulation, the limitation of the former and the bullying problem. Here a
leave you a trailer about a documental “Bully”. I saw it with other videos
about this film a few months ago and I could almost feel the realty of those
kids it is very harsh to see.
I agree with you. When I was in primary school, my History teacher asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I told him that I wanted to be an illustrator of children's stories, and he laughed at me!
