Ken Robinson: Do schools kill creativity?

In this short presentation for the annual TED conference, Ken Robinson, makes the case for “creating an education system that nurtures creativity, rather than undermining it”. Ken Robinson led the British government’s 1998 advisory committee on creative and cultural education, a massive inquiry into the significance of creativity in the educational system and the economy. His book Out of our minds explores the different ways in which creativity is undervalued and ignored in Western culture and particularly in our educational systems.
