Flourish.

Creativity expert Sir Ken Robinson challenges the way we're educating our children. He champions a radical rethink of our school systems, to cultivate creativity and acknowledge multiple types of intelligence.

Here he makes an entertaining and profoundly moving case for creating an education system that nurtures (rather than undermines) creativity.



In this talk, the argument is made for a radical shift from standardized schools to personalized learning -- creating conditions where kids' natural talents can flourish.
