I would like to talk about my ideal education.

His TED talk was very exciting because I agree with his speech very much.
I think we should not kill not only children’s  but also everyone’s creativity. We have to take advantage of their talent for each child. But we have to keep our basic education as it is .  I have 2 reasons.

 

At first, I think creativity is very important and it has to be utilized because I believe everyone has it originally and  it is different depending on the person’s gift from my own experience.

Last year I participated in a workshop. The theme  there was a new public enterprise policy.  When we  had brain storming, my team members found different ideas. It looks only proper that everyone has his own idea but it’s very important because each person has own background. For example, their families, hometowns, schools and so on…   As Mr. Robinson says, I also think he or she has own point of view and own creativity.

 

Secondly, I think we have to catch up with future. In the present era, I think sense of value will change easily more than ever and there will be new sense of value. For instance, when the earthquake  happened on 11 March 2011, our sense of value about nuclear power generation was changed. Economic downturn precipitated by the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy in 2008 was also remarkable example. So I think holding and educating each person’s creativity, we have to survive in this era. Mr. Robinson says “Degrees aren’t worth anything.” I think it means the education that is predicated on the idea of academic ability is old-fashioned and same education for everyone can’t catch up with future.

 

Although I think the education that regards creativity as important is great thing, in order to live in human community we have to have at least minimal knowledge or intelligence. So it’ s important for us to keep our basic education.

 

In the future I hope our education would be better and our life would be more creative and powerful. Everyone should challenge for better creativity and better education.

 

You could create imagination power so that you could have better creativity and educational power. Because if you could have vivid imagination, you could act and create anything much faster than when you had only vague imagination.  Imagination power is much stronger than you just can think of.
