A problem of education

Hi Guys!! How are you? Today I´m going to talking about a talk that gave Ken Robinson in wich mentions that is surprised of how the educational system discards the human creativity. He thinks that  the creativity is as process of having original ideas that have value and to which is reached only if there is no fear of wrong, but  now  in all countries is used the same educational system, that stigmatizes to mistakes of them students, so people are being educated to leaving their creative abilities. This event is reflected in the hierarchy of subjets and the idea that the subjets most useful for work are more important than others. Many people are intelligent and talented, but they don´t believe it, because their capacity does not value or is stigmatized. Finally, he proposes that we have to rethink the fundamental principies on wich are being educating to children and of this way assure them a good future.

I completely agree with what he says, because I experienced it. I always have wanted be actress, but when I told to my family and to other people that I would wanted to study theater, they told me "I would die of hunger", because they considered that this was not a profession but a hobby, that was not profitable. For example, my grandmum said “you have to be a doctor because you will win a lot of money and you have the capacity for do it” and now I can recognized that she was not able to see my talent.

So, we have to empower the talents that have the children…any be this.
