Do schools kill creativity?

Really, do schools kill creativity?

What do you think about this?

Do you agree with Sir Ken Robinson?

Creativity has continued to have the strong aesthetic and spiritual connotations it has in artistic discussions but recent work extends this by also giving emphasis to practical and professional considerations.

According to the video, I believe that the culprit that human creativity is often cut from childhood is not the education system, It is our economic model, our ideals of success, is our way of measuring and valuing people, are the expectations imposed on us and that we ourselves impose on others, particularly children and young people.

The challenges of our time are great, and many of these problems have their origin in precisely the quest for productivity, efficiency and maximum profit. I think the challenge is not so much revolutionize the educational model, like say  Ken Robinson, but rather  change  what we consider valuable, changing the education system continue to this revolution.

I think the challenge is not so much revolutionize the educational model, like says Ken Robinson, the challenge is to revolutionize our thinking with what we consider valuable: the education system will change after this.
