Creativity

I think that the guy in the ted clip that we watched in class was pretty funny and he had a lot of good views and ideas on the current education system. I think that school and education in general should be more creative and less boring. There should be more time where you devoted to things that you like to do whether it be dancing, playing video games, or playing sports. I also liked the idea how he said that if all of the insects died on earth all of the humans would disappear in 50 years but if all of the humans died that all of the creatures on earth would flourish in 50 years. I agree with that because i believe a lot of the things that humans do hurt the environment and the creatures in the environment. If we weren't here they would most likely flourish and there would probably be a lot more creatures.

When he was talking about Gillian i thought it was funny that she had a problem because she always liked to be moving around. There are a lot of people out there that learn by doing something rather by just listenening to someone talk about how your suppose to do it. I am actually one of those people i learn by actually doing rather than listening to someone give directions on how to do it. I hope in the future that kids will get a better chance to have a more diverse learning environment rather than the one that we have where its all about math, science, and history. It will be interesting to see what the job market is in 10 to 20 years because of how he said that even if you ahev a college degree it still doesn't guarantee you a job because of the technology that we have now.

  2. I am also one of those people that have to learn my doing rather than sitting and listening. I have problems sitting still and focusing. Which if I was Gillian they would think there was something wrong with me but I dont have a.d.d or anything.
