Sir Ken Robinson gave his TED talk in a very light and funny mood. The information that he gave was important and you could tell that he was passionate about what he was saying, but it wasn’t a very serious lecture. He used jokes to lighten the mood of the subject and he had everyone one hooked on what he was saying. He pulled his listeners in with stories of people learning styles and how that led to their successful careers. To Sir Ken Robinson what mattered was that creativity is the most important trait that a child needs to have in this generation, but the education styles of this generation are taking away that creativity. The way that children are educated in this generation, my generation, is so normal and boring. Students are being taught that the teacher’s way is right and so therefore they become used to being wrong. Robinson stated that by the time a child in this generation becomes an adult they will be used to being wrong. In this generation there is a big want for creative minds but if education continues the way that it is children will not know how to use that creativity to become successful. The world runs on the creativity of the human mind and without that creativity nothing will ever become better everything will stay the same. Humans will not be able to create technology that will help their population to strive.
