Sir Ken Robinson’s Perspective on Creativity
At the IPS/Butler University Laboratory School, our collective image of the child (values and beliefs about children and learning) includes a belief that children are capable, creative and curious. Our staff looks for inspiration from many sources. Sir Ken Robinson inspires us to think more deeply about the role of creativity in schools and how an emphasis on creative thinking has the potential, not only to transform school as we know it, but also the work place and by extension, our economy. Author of The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything and Out of Our Minds: Learning to be Creative, Robinson is a frequent speaker at TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) Conferences. Some of Sir Robinson’s most memorable presentations are available at the TED website as video links. You will find them below, and we hope you find his message compelling and his presentation style entertaining!
