Out of Our Minds: Learning to Be Creative
Ratings5
Average rating3.8
Very interesting book. Enjoyable read with some interesting ideas presented.
What we need, says education expert Sir Ken Robinson, is not more education or more training; instead, Robinson thinks we need to be free to be creative.
How to do that is the subject of this book. Along the way, Robinson dispels the myths of creativity, including the overriding myth that creativity is something that only exists in certain individuals.
The best part of the book, for me, were the last two chapters where Robinson clearly defines ways for teachers to encourage students to be more creativity.
I loved the concepts and ideas of this book but sometimes found arguments could have been more too-the-point, less repetitive, clearer, and shorter.
Easy to read. Makes you think a LOT if the current teaching/hiring system is outdated.
