Power of the Imaginative Mind - Sir Ken Robinson

"Somebody once said, you know, "The great problem with human societies is not that we aim too high and fail, but that we aim too low and succeed." And for education for the future,  for all of us collectively, I think we all have to accept that for now and forever, we have to aim very high in education, and we have to succeed"
The internationally renowned innovation consultant calls for transformation, not just reformation, of public education. Sir Ken Robinson's remarks were recorded on April 10, 2008, at the Apple Education Leadership Summit, a gathering in San Francisco of more than one hundred school superintendents from around the world. We might have posted already extracts from this talk, but it is always a pleasure to listen to Sir Ken.
