I will use what I have learned to "create both Joy and learning", "Fun, excitement, creativity, imagination". For me, teaching promotes taking the JOY & LIFE out of everyone. WHY?

    "You should for at least once a month go for a funeral. She wasn't being mobid, but just to remind you that this isn't forever. We need a sense of perspective of how much time we have."

    How do you go about stopping countries like South Korea from these extremely academic focused cultures where kids are stressed out and commit suicide, without first changing the way the top schools select their new freshman class? The reason behind this entire hakwon (private tutoring academies) system and high pressure testing and studying culture is because of how the top schools select their kids. If the top schools were to change how they selected their kids, then the rest of the system would change to adapt. Not sure how to solve this puzzle.

    We lost a great educator who saw a great vision on how to fix education as it is nowadays! This one remains of the last century and almost not fit for purpose as this new century is dominated by smart technologies that are accelerating our sciences discoveries with tremendous applications of multi-disciplinary nature. In every kid there is a specific talent that needs to be unlocked by the next generation of educators who indeed should become facilitators for letting kids acquire knowledge that take them do what they like to do and florish within it! This is the challenge we are in now!

    I checked last night about how many times Sir Ken's first talk has been viewed, and it is over 15 million times. The short talk he did when Amanda Palmer sang him a song (it was a very good song) he makes a point that it has been shown at conferences so the total audience is maybe 200-300 million. So why, if then, is school still so boring and confining for so many? The 'punishers and straiteners' are still winning. Help.

    The problem with the bureaucracy (depending on which country you are from) is that there is much fear towards change and worse... internal fighting over what is the best way forward. Unfortunately, there is so much disagreement that bureaucrats are stuck in stasis...

    I have an idea I though about for a time when I was in university. What about giving your students a problem that looks simple without giving them the tools needed to solve it. I believe they will enter multiple stages: First: underestimation.. they'll think they can easily solve it. Second: realization... They'll understand they're not equipped to solve a problem in that category. Third and last: desperation they'll figure the answer doesn't matter anyway. Then the best time to give them the tools they need is somewhere between the second and third phase. They'll be hungry for knowledge at that point of time. Now for hardened adults like you and I the time between the second and third phase is substantially greater than it is for teenagers. So the real challenge of this specific method is when to intervene. As Dr Robinson pointed out, not all children are created equal, so some of them might reach the third phase when their classmates are in the first two. And your role then would be to encourage the give up types so that they stay longer in that sweet spot while their more stubborn classmates are approaching the second phase. I hope you can give me your informed opinion on this.

    Aren’t parents there to foster individuality? Schools are there to engage children in learning, select the ones that mostly developed the skills of unmotivated learning, ‘learning yellow pages backwards’, being able to learn the uninteresting, like judges, lawyers, doctors, or any other high level professional has to. The rest are basically people who can be useful to society with barely being able to spell. The school system works. The parents need to add the extras if they want their children to have the luxury of individuality. The entire concept has only been in existence since the Second World War. Before that you were a banker, a teacher, you stayed a banker, a teacher for 30 years and retired into a small cottage in Devon.

    Regrettably anecdotal research shows that the first change must be in age old beliefs of Asian parents where the next billion kids live. Asian parents obsessively want each of their kids to come First. Their misplaced belief is that a college degree and standardised testing is the only method of evaluation. Now mass unemployed graduates creates frustration. Corporates & political rulers have sought only similars for centuries. It is only in the recent decades where we have created equal opportunity for both male and female, after the economic destruction of muscle based output & output of repetitive functions now threatened by automation. The factories of repetitive syllabus based education cannot be changed, because they need disruption. 1000 desk class rooms are difficult to change to create personal rapport between teacher & student. Though it would be an oversimplification to identify one starting solution; i would risk to suggest that the continuing paradox that teachers are the lowest paid profession. This is despite being universally considered to be the most valuable influence on the future of our children. This one correction to me is the primary starting point. Once this starts to correct the disruption can begin.. Is there an Elon Musk around to disrupt the education system? Sir Ken has the pitch deck.

    Possibly this covid 19 virus will somehow have a benefit by the sheer fact that students are having to be educated differently now. I just saw a notice in a neighborhood group app where parents are forming neighborhood pods for virtual learning to teach the kids. I think it's a great idea. Maybe education will never return to what we had before. Hopefully it will be better.

    Conformity reasoning and dogmas are the cause of failure in our education. Mathematics has found a new field is computer dynamics reasoning. If a robot can not identify the nature of a Objet like a human being but computer technology can bypass that failure and the interaction of différent tech model will give the robot its artificial intelligence faster than man. So Robinson is right we have to reinvent our old conceptual knowledge if mankind don't want to be doom by faulty dogmas. Like Edison he has never believe in the making of candles light and the bulb had lift millions of people out of illeteracy, for poor people cannot not afford candles for their night learning. So computers will be the stepstone of equalization learning like a gradient of gigabytes, all is in the speed and not the ability of a human being to understand..... Like windows systems we need It to run the system and the conceptors inventions are already made. In the 19 th century, people say the bulb is going to create wild fires and destroy the world so as is.........

    This guy needs to get arrested more so as to be able to stand in front of a (So called) Judge and totally eclipse the law with reason. I"m a mental minnow compared to sir ken but I"m kinda hoping to get arrested so i can have my say in court. No doubt i will get a harsher sentence for contempt however i couldn't give a squirt off piss i will have my say and will not be silenced. Starting with the oath on the bible to which i will respond yes of course your honor ill tell you exactly the same amount of truth as is written in this here bible.

    Aren’t parents there to foster individuality? Schools are there to engage children in learning, select put the ones that mostly developed the skills of unmotivated learning, ‘learning yellow pages backwards’, being able to learn the uninteresting, like judges, lawyers, doctors, or any other high level professional has to. The tests are basically people who can be useful to society with barely being able to spell. The school system works. The parents need to ad the extras if they want their children to have the luxury of individuality. The entire concept has only been existence since the Second World War. Before that you were a banker, a teacher, you stayed a banker, teacher for 30 years and retired into a small cottage in Devon. School are there to makes sure there are enough surgeons, engineers and high court judges etc

    Why do you always hear these “collaboration” speeches from people who already “earnt their academic degrees”, bought their houses, safe cars, health insurance and already payed for their children’s education. Observe, he didn’t chose to become a primary teacher in a commune, working till 8pm as a farmer to help everyone have root vegetables, but no root canals or hip replacements.

    It's all there, encourage outside play, reduce homework, don't focus on the grades as a way of grading success, take into account th child's wellbeing and strengths into account. If the kids struggle it is the schooling at fault, so you must transform the schooling not tell the students that they are failing. Those a just a few. Hope it helps you

    I think he is wrong when he talks about modern agriculture. He says that the industrial agriculture is destroying the environment. And it is quite the contrary. It was the traditional agriculture which destroyed most of the ecosystems in the past and continues to destroy the environment in underdeveloped countries. And it is industrial agriculture which is making possible for many ecosystem to be recovered. In Europe, our ancestors burned and destroyed most ancient ecosystems because, due to the low yields of traditional agriculture, it was necessary to cultivate nearly every patch of land to feed the small population that lived in Europe at the time. Nowadays, on the contrary, we are able to grow much more food in much less space. So, wild forests and grasslands are growing again in many parts of Europe. Furthermore, that thing about soil depletion in developed countries is only a stupid myth. And one last thing: schools in America, (and most of the world), have never been a great place. Many things have to be changed, but we should recover little from the past of this institution.

    And still, UN is adressing the problem that a third of the planets land is severely degraded and that about 24 billions tonnes of fertile soil is being lost every year. Competition of land is intensifying when the supply of healthy and productive land diminishes at the same time as population grows. I trust UN in this case and I think it is pure insanity to mention it as a stupid myth. Industrial agriculture is destructively intensive and the effects you also must consider are increased pollution and sedimentation in streams and rivers, waterways are hampered and causing declines in fish, something we need too, and degraded lands have much more problems with flooding. This must be taken seriously.

    Traditional agriculture may have destroyed more than industrial agriculture has, but 10,000 years of traditional anything would have more of an impact of 100 years of industrial anything, ...like 1000 times more.

    The message is very worthwhile, a real contribution and much appreciated, but the boring, predictive and groaningly tired humor -- is something one has to sit through to get the message. A lovely bit of real humor is OK, but come on. This non-humorous, ubiquitous stab at humor that he constantly offers, well, he mostly starts with, is what (possibly was considered) funny to the repressed English in 1960 -- and the clue is how he laughs at himself all the time while the audience mostly does not. Hope he finds someone to help him trim some of this off. His message, his good questions, are truly worthwhile.

I have been an artist for all of my life up to now, my 89th year.....and my Osteoarthritis is rather an inconvenience so your talk about finding your "quest" applies all the more so I thank you so very much.....for being here in LA shere I am. If possible, allow me to make a quick study of you;a 15 minute watercolor impression. Thank you for sharing your wit and wisdom. audreyroll32@gmail.com

    If you are a parent, you didn't teach your xhild.to.speak..You couldn't. They taught themselves 44:18 ... she learns it because she wants to and she can. They take it in through their skin, through the culture, socially. 45:28 children love learning until they get going through school.and then, gradually, they start to lose interest... this system can - with an effort of will and a collective effort - be changed
