TED Talks

Ken Robinson on 'School Kills Creativity'

http://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity.html

 
I like this talk because Ken uses anecdotes and funny stories to help get his point across. He engages very well with the audience. His talk is very entertaining but also makes you think about the education. He also uses people's real stories on how they got to realise that they had such an amazing talent. Whereas it may quite a serious topic, Ken makes it easy to understand and quite humourous.
 
You should watch this talk because it is really interesting and insightful. He has some really good discussions that will really make you think whether or not he is right, and what can we do about it if he is. As a student in secondary school, I can relate to what he says about the hiraki in the school.
