Schools Kill Creativity Video

After viewing this video it had me wondering a lot!! It had me wondering what if I was really born an amazing artist but  i may have been, as Ken Robinson says, "educated out of it," because i am the worst person when it comes to art and drawing!! ha ha But really, by watching this video it was full of information about how the universal school system has created this idea of what education and smart people are. People are led to believe that, like the video says, "you can never have a career or job through your music or art", that is just something to fall back on. I agree with what Ken Robinson say about that, he says the consequence is that many brilliant, creative and smart people think that they are not. All because everything at school they say its not good enough and it wasn't valued. The story of the the girl who danced in the room alone when she heard music was very interesting because its like these kids in schools can have these amazing talents and they are all told to sit down, be quiet and listen. It is like putting a lid on a jar of beautiful butterfly's who are dying to get out and fly! Okay, i know that was cheesy but that all i can think of. The video was very interesting, i really like watching these.
