Sir Ken Robinson's Contribution to Discussion on Education

Sir Ken Robinson is a genius. He completed a PhD researching the use of theater in education at the University of London, has worked extensively on programs to improve education, written several books which are I am told I must read, and he has a phenomenal accent.

I think the principles he sets out in these talks are indispensable in determining where education is going to go in the future. I am curious to find out more about how he envisages the application of these principles. Two of my friends have recommended his book The Element, and that book is on my list of volumes to read in the near future. For now, enjoy these lectures. They are long, and sometimes repetitive, but well worth the investment.
