He's my hero. Hope he is resting peacefully. ♡

I am a teacher and have been for 49 years. Dr. Robinson has helped me realize how much I love who I am as a teacher and not necessarily what I do as a teacher. Thank you Dr Robinson, I am going on line and order “The Element” right now. I have a million thoughts about what I am going to say to my College Students at my next class, especially the ones who are out of their element and struggling. However, I am thinking mostly about my beautiful and dynamic 7 year old grandson and how to insure that his education program understands who he is and what he needs to grow and be happy. Thank you Dr. Robinson. John R Passarini Ed.D. Salem State University

He is much more than just funny and charming! I love listening to Ken Robinson!!

Awesome talk from Sir Ken Robinson, we need a paradigm shift and I am looking forward to it!

This man's ideas should be implemented in all schools. We weren't born to just learn by rote, get a degree and then pay off debts for life.

Please come to Korea sir Ken and open this country’s eyes

Thank you Sir Ken :)

Thank you for speaking out about those with creative skills who find math difficult, and thank you for lecturing on the imagination, empathy and feelings.

Inspiring ~ all the way through!

I wonder when this understanding of being in our element will eventually be recognised in our education system?

Love this man, gone too early

Great guy so clever and witty

7:00 To be more accurate, it's your perspective on the rate of change, not for all and not from all perspectives.

This is exactly what happened to my cousin. He couldn't stay still in class. His parents think he's a failure and sedated him to keep him calm. It makes me sad everytime I look at him. He was so talented in drawing, and now people judge him that he can't do anything, telling him how worthless he is.

***** Then you can tell him he is not? :) And stop others in telling him he is worthless...

+KiddRogers The way school are run are ideologically driven. I am not saying that the people who make decisions on education are closed minded, but rather to be able to think outside of the box is an extremely difficult thing to do for anyone. That goes for anyone, you or me. To be convinced that you are right is extremely limiting thing that we all have. Even pure reason, sound logic is usually not enough to convince someone, anyone they are wrong about their ideology. You can look at statistics that inform your opinion and it is easy to ignore and explain away the stats that disagree with your view.

+Robotomato : It sounds like he was (may still be somewhere) very lively in spirit which the world in general can´t contain. I may be wrong but it appears to me that the world in general doesn´t accept anything else than traditionalists. Wish I had a talent like the one you describe. But again the world would probably not even either notice or care.....

Give him the gift of this information. It is only too late when we stop trying.

The drivingforces in school should be passion, imagination and romantic, wishful thinking that becomes real... Math too could probably become creative...

You two are amazing together; I mean the coppywriter and you.

Brilliant talk

funny and intelligent as always :)

You observed a lot hopefully this comes to help every one

30 % dropouts? And many more to not really benefit from their education? Wild and thoughtawakening. That must mean that the world is having a big problem. How to find ones passion is a difficult thing in our world that in some senses seems passionless and productionminded.

YES the water is fine !

I love listening to Ken, but Las Vegas was built by the need to build Hoover Dam on the Colorado River. WATER! workers during the depression moved there and stayed .

College/University degrees, are a dime a dozen.

Kopernik didn't discover anything He was taught by Jews or Arabs the problem was that the only people who knew best was not the Roman See.
