I think that he has good ideas. It would be very hard to implement those ideas though. You would need many more people to teach every student what they wanted to learn. If it could be done I think it would be a good idea to go to a system like this.
ReplyDeleteI think it is true that many people do not even discover what their true talents are and think that they aren't good at anything. I also agree with his statement that not everyone needs to go to college. When it comes down to it I think that he has very good ideas and his statements are very true.
ReplyDeleteI do agree with the college statement if people have a plan they shouldnt have to attend college. I also agree with his fast food statement people are spending more money om fast food then on higher education such as books and things you would need to study with.
ReplyDeleteI strongly agree with the kindergarten statement. Kids should be able to enjoy kindergarten without worrying about alegebra or another language. Let them be kids.
ReplyDeleteI think he is right because the are expecting to much from these kids theses days. If the kids can not meet their expectation they will call them stupid or they will not let them pass.
ReplyDeleteI thought his speech was very good! He had great Ideas! He made it interesting to listen to and made it relatable to my life! He talked about how people should find things that they are happy doing and that is something coming up in the near future for me, to find something I am going to be happy doing the rest of my life. He stated this "if your doing something you love an hour seems like 5 minutes but if you are doing something you hate an hour actually feels like an hour!" This statement really stuck with me.
ReplyDeleteI think that Ken Robinson does a great job of teaching his agenda in a way that most people will identify with; humor. He uses humor to pull the audience in, and then talk on his ideas. I do agree with Bret, it would be very hard and very expensive to find teachers that can teach every single student their passion and their passion only.
ReplyDeleteThis guy knows what he is talking about. I think he's definitely right too about the kindergardeners and college.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed his aproach to the audeince he was funny but not over the top in his attempt to make the crowd laugh. He seems like a really humble guy who enjoys what he does. I think his comments on people enjoying what they do compared to the people that dont were very good. This was really neat!
ReplyDeleteI think this guy has a lot of good ideas that theoretically would work but fail during implementation. Teaching everyone more individually either requires a lot more teachers or teachers would have to spend less time with each student. I think that teaching each student their passion is a great idea but doing it requires a lot of work that I believe isn't quite possible yet.
ReplyDeleteI think he has a lot of good ideas would work, but it would definitely be hard to implement all of them. Teaching everyone individually would require a lot of time. Time that is not available. Many people cannot find their talents, and that leads them to think they are worthless, when that is not the case. I like how he uses humor in his speech, which really brings the audience in!
ReplyDeleteI agree It's important for people to do what your passionate about. People learn in different ways. I agree with him about How college isn't for everyone if you want to do something you don't have to go to college for you dream.
