I think that was a wonderful exposition of ideas. I always thought that the education system is unfocused, and day after day more people believe that, and more studies confirm them.
I’m totally agree with Sir Ken Robinson, it’s a fact that regular education is killing many of our abilities and also our sensitivity. We are living in a world who don’t need more engineers or academics but is absolutely necessary cultivate our conscience and social abilities.
This speech is very similar to the ideas exposed in documentary “La Educación Prohibida”, this movie show how the education system is 200 years and even today have several fail. In this documentary many teachers and student spoke, and we can see other methods of education, considerate “experimental” and how this methods have success and the children achieve self-confidence, and more development of their social abilities, concern for the environment, sensitivity and artistic qualities.
I think that one of the most important point of the Robinson’s exposition for our dicipline is something that a few people call “el fenómeno de credencialización” that points to a modern necessity of obtain a credential or certification for any activities, while a few decades ago this was necessary for evaluate to people that apply for a job or scholarship for example, today we have thousands of people with credential unemployed, people over-qualified for some jobs, and a serious deficit in technical career
