Schooll kills creativity

It´s really hard to realize that what Sir Ken says is true. The speech he gives at the New York Public radio about the education system taking away from us creativity it is certainly controversial. We are made by education as people that think and live according to the needs of this new era of the information. In order to survive we study things that might be useful in the future to raise some money and live decently. So in the order to do it, we delete the rest of the stuff that is occupying space in our brains… stuff that are not useful enough –like art, music, painting, dancing. We are raised to believe that those kinds of subject won´t help us out to make our living, and we forget about how important they are to give to our life some meaning. I personally forgot about it, and I took them out of my life because of the lack of time I had… they were not my priority, I think. But they should be important in every human life, like the in Greeks culture. They put the arts above the development of other areas, because art would take you into perfection. Perfection now is having a huge degree and a big house with a big bank account, and don’t forget the nice car. If education wants to be successful, I think we need to put the creativity at the same level of math or literature… that way our priority would be the enrichment of our soul and integrity that comes with it… not just the money.
