As for his discussion with regard to "Creative Capacity..." What a thought provoking concept, imagine a time and place where the world is full of possibilities. Where coloring outside the lines is applauded, where song and dance are expressed unashamedly. Consider if you will for a moment... an era of day-dreams and fairytales, a kaleidoscope of ideas and adventure. Dare if you would... to contemplate an environment where creativity has an unlimited capacity, and you'll have barely scratched the surface of a child's imagination... So, do I think this post ought to be passed on...? That would be a YES!!!!! Now if Sir Ken Robinson hasn’t given you pause to reconsider your concept of “Education” there’s little chance anyone will.
