Schools kill creativity.

Firstly, I would like to point out my agreement about Sir Ken’s talk. I consider as an essential necessity talk about education and what is going on there. For that reason, what Robinson said was a good example of conscience and it makes us reflect on education and what people think and accepts as good there.

Do you agree that schools are killing creativity? I do not dare to assure that schools do that. What in my opinion school does is does not consider creativity as an important part of the school, it does not mean that it kills creativity. In that way, school omits creativity and ignores it. As a result, school does not kill something that has never considered.

In addition, we must analyze what is going on inside schools. Why does not school consider creativity in class? It seems that school aims to get competitive and passive people instead of autonomous, self – direct, but specially people who can be able to create their own lives, taking their tastes as a guide of their lives. However, school teaches them that there is no necessary to do and know that.

A sobering conclusion is that schools teach what society requires, in terms of, economic and politic development. As member of a society where it is not acceptable be different but rather you are molded by a certain interests, we must do something about it. Tomorrow you are going to be a worker, mother, father, and student. But when are you?
