The Necessity for Creativity in 21st Century Education

An entertaining and profoundly moving case for creating an education system that nurtures (rather than undermines) creativity made by Ken Robinson.

Sir Ken Robinson (1950 - ...) is an internationally recognised leader in the development of innovation and human resources.
He has worked with national governments in Europe and Asia, with national and state education systems, non-profit corporations and some of the world’s leading cultural organisations. From 1989 - 2001, he was Professor of Arts Education at the University of Warwick. He speaks to audiences throughout the world on the creative challenges facing business and education in the new global economies.

"Many thanks for your assistance throughout the course. I must confess that I really appreciated advice and contributions. Despite the fact that I had a background in Social Sciences having graduated with honours in Educational Management and Political Science and with a masters degree in International Relations, I still benefitted immensely from the course. It stimulated my interest in Social Care."

Tayo Tewogbade, MSc, MEd. Hons.

"I’ve found the course tremendously helpful in my writing. To have an understanding of how society works - or doesn’t work - and what makes people behave the way they do is invaluable, and it has definitely encouraged me to observe people in different ways."

Terri Shoosmith

"I applied to college to study Social Science and I was given a place on a degree course, I just want to thank you, as my tutor you have helped me progress in an area of writing essays etc and that was on my entrance exam, one of the essays was on culture of the world. I wouldn't have been accepted without your positive and excellent feedback. Thank you so much"
