Sir Ken Robinson is internationally recognized as a leader in education. He is a speaker who talks about the development of cretivity, human resources, and innovation. In Sir Ken Robinson's video, Bring on the Learning Revolution, he starts off by describing two groups in the world that people are divided amongest: people who love what they do and people who do not. He calls that as "going with the flow". He also describes the everchanging education system as a "revolution". He has made me open my eyes to realize that, we as humans, take things for granted. For example, everyone in the audience was over 25 years of age. He asked them who was wearing a watch, and about 75% of the audience was. He was making a point that they wear watches because their generation didn't grow up with the advance technology that is available in today's society. Today's generation don't wear watches due to them having different resources to tell the time. Sir Ken Robinson has made me realize that things can be taken for granted, even things so little as to wearing a watch. However, I think the technology advance in education is one thing that shouldn't be taken for granted.
Caroline,
ReplyDeleteI also agree with you that the advance in technology should not be taken for granted because a lot of other things are. Sir Ken Robinson's example of people who wear wrist watches was the perfect example and it's a good thing to mention in your blog! I only saw one typo, so make sure you proofread before you publish! I enjoyed reading your blog post and keep up the good work!
