ET*****:

7:45

“My friend is dead”

Everyone starts laughing

la*****:

7:13 yet that is what all our schools are ...

ma*******:

12:25 “hmm, would you be a good chap and lock the place up on your way out?”

Ma*************:

6:30 Curiosity. What part of the existing educational systems encourages it? Why is it that whenever I ask anyone who's above 13 or so "Why or how do you think something is ........" they give me looks and responses that invariably translate to "No, but why should I?"

Na**************:

10:15 I hope this kind of dog exists

La*******************:

3:28
And the rest of us have seen small people wondering alone

jo***********:

8:25 is almost my entire schooling career.

Fr*********:

8:53 I realize how throughout my education, especially higher education, that I was subjected to a culture of testing to demonstrate what I didn't know. I'd must rather have been tested for what I knew or had learned.

HO****************:

14:36

In Germany, the entire public schooling system had been founded based on this principle. The aim was simply to create a broader, more readily applicable workforce that alleviate training costs on the industrial end. Not much has changed since then.

He***********:

12:44 Here is a quote I know: "We teach students, not lessons."
Also, love this guy!
15:36 The more I learn about teaching and parenting and marriage, the more I believe that what we must use for people who have the hardest time with things (those with autism, learning liabilities, etc.) are the things that tend to work best for everyone else, too.
I thought it really sad when in the beginning he said schools focus on exams so much that kids are only learning so they can pass, and then he said it doesn't HAVE to be that way. As I tried to imagine that, I thought, "You mean they are learning to LEARN?" (Like, learning for its own sake? Because they like it?) I realized then that I am caught in the trap, too!!

I honestly can't decide if this gentleman should become the head of public education in America, or America's next great stand up comedian.

I have an old friend....actually he's very old....he's dead.

My God this guy needs to do stand up

Kids don’t drop out of high school. Graduate and take out tens of thousands in student loans at a university and be a debt slave for life.

Th*****************:

this guy is pure genius. Some kids have different strengths and weaknesses which are not acknowledged enough. And I know how this feels. I wish the school system could be improved to incorporate this.

Ni******:

YouTube is the BEST school on Earth!

th************************:

Anyone else get depressed to thinking that this system he's talking will never actually happen

Jo**:

As a student this has me spazzing in my chair. This man has put the feeling of " it shouldn't be this way " that I've had for years, into clear common sense words. Almost all school systems work this way and when their blatant faults are put before them they either act incredulous or tell you "this is the way the world works". Thank goodness for this man.

St********:

Thanks for getting me excited about something that isn't going to happen in the foreseeable future. That's basically the theme of my entire childhood in school.

Do*******:

Good One! As a teacher who takes great care about my students' future well-being, I cannot help but agree.
(PS I teach ESL btw.)

Best line people think "British are reserved, but we aren't, because we ruled every possible land" hahahaha

Superb talk

M0***:

This guy is incredibly intelligent and incredibly funny at the same time,
Truly inspiring talk....

Hi**********:

Excellent. In school, I always felt like I was doing things that served no purpose other than appeasing the adults in my life.

je****:

It wasn't until I left school that I discovered how interesting learning can be - including what in school I found tedious.

Ra***********:

The US Federal government doesn't watch Youtube though so this isn't going to be a message received anytime soon. Now if you post this on Twitter with the words "Jihad" on the top I'm sure that would get the attention of a few 3-letter agencies.

my parents: ok... let"s just send him back to school!
me: AH YES... THAT MAKES PERFECT SENSE!! some almost died because of a peanut allergy? well guess what... JUst GivE tHEm MoRe PeAnuTS!

Tr********:

R.I.P. Sir Ken Robinson. Your legend will live on.

fl*********:

Ken Robinson: Breathes*
Crowd: Claps

Er***:

"Whoever thought of that name gets irony."

Take cover! Shots fired!

Ma********:

"We've invaded every country we encountered."
That's the most British thing I 've heard so far.

Go*************:

"If you sit kids down hour after hour doing low-grade clerical work, don't be surprised if they start to fidget."


I literally clapped along with the audience.

Le********:

I love Sir Ken Robinson. He's so right. I've been teaching for 20 years and left. I left because I didn't agree with the direction that education was going. I didn't agree with Restorative Justice or passing laws stating that a very disruptive student can't be removed from the classroom so no one learns. I truly adored my students. I was constantly thinking and looking for ways to make the "curriculum" interesting, fun, and and a place you want to come to. I've succeeded many times. I'm a hands-on teacher so it was a lot of work. But I taught my 7th graders how to scale large objects. Took them on field trips where they had to accomplish different tasks. One of my most rewarding moments was when one of my students said that he "didn't know science could be so fun". And yet I was routinely given "bad students". The kids that were difficult to teach while the other teachers would only teach AP students, Honors students, etc. But they said very clearly that they ONLY teach high level students. Funny but my license looked just like theirs. So I told the registrar to just give them to me. I dislike the politics in the Administration where they do your evaluation but the first time they score you very bad and then the last evaluation they walk around proclaiming how effective you were. Great, Fantastic. So I asked someone how can you change so much from one evaluation to the next and the answer was that the Administration has to show improvement. To me, doesn't make any sense whatsoever. The last school I taught in there were more teachers leaving than staying. There has to be a better way to evaluate teachers. Because I could be great in one school and then suddenly you're doing nothing right. I do miss some things in education. The students I taught but there are somethings I won't miss.

Em****:

I'm a Vietnamese (well you can forget my name, it's just a pseudonym) and I can tell you that Vietnamese gov don't seem to want to develop a better education. Our university entrance exam is held nationally every year, with the same regulations, the same tests, the same questions and is taken only once a year. This exam is so important that it can actually determine your whole future, and yet the gov change exam regulations every single year, making students and parents and teachers confusing and stressed, especially students. This year, for example, regulations for the university entrance exam are changed when there are only 3 months left until the day the exam starts because of the epidemic. The new regulations make students study twice the amount of knowledge compared to before with only 3 months left! I wish my country has someone as great as you to help us students have a better learning environment and better teachers that not only focus on tests but also provoke students's interest. I know this is long, thank you whoever's reading this. Vietnamese students are mostly hard-working and bright, so I just think that it would be a waste if they're educated like that.

iz******:

I can almost guarantee without looking at statistics that the drop outs are more successful within the laws of nature.
At the other end of the scale, the people who think they are the most successful stay in education until they are 30 something. Then they are too busy with work or paying back their loans to have a family. Then they might have one kid or probably 0.2 kids per these people on average. Nature is shouting at you successful people FAIL.
Have children preferably before you reach the age of 40 or 30.
We need to change the educational system and try to escape the fail of capitalism.
Kids need to learn what they are interested in and yes those interests do change but we need to be guides not educational force feeders.
