The importance of education: Video's Comments...

The video beggining with differents images and finally appear Sir Ken Robinson. He talks about the evidence about human creativity, about the future that we have no idea about what id going to happen, about education (saying that everybody has an interest in education), and finaly he refers to the capacity that children have.
This happens ‘cause the world needs that kind of people, the system is the responsible. Nowadays, and since many many decades, capitalism is the prevailing system and this is maintained beacause of the different strategies that society uses. Education is just one of that strategies. This type of education (this capitalist education) waste the kid’s talents, schools coerce children to adhere to certain education standars, where a mistake is the worst thing they can make, educating people out of its capacities and creativity.
He blames all this facts to the system, that shool is just a way tu university, and than study to get a good job. The system makes believe us that arts aren’t important because we can’t find good jobs (or simply, we won’t get a job) as an artist. So, the result is that many creative people think that their wrong, that being like that is just a big big mistake.
Sir Ken Robinsin argues that creativity is as important as education. We need to rethink our conception about intelligence. It is diverse, dynamic and distinctive. It’s needed to value each different type of intelligence, and use the human intelligence wisely, value children and their intelligence, to make world a better place, to create a new and good future.
