Sir Ken Robinson on Education Systems

Posted on 06 February 2012

Not sure how I have missed out on Sir Ken Robinson until now. However, he has some excellent ideas for reforming education. The current system is broken, the current system is a disservice to helping us (humans collectively) tackle the problems we are all facing: hunger, cancer, space exploration hindrances, energy, to name a handful.

I feel by changing the education process - most notably, doing away with what he calls anesthetising students and encouraging their divergent thinking (something improv teaches, by the way) - we will be doing the best thing we can for the future our children will grow into.

See what I mean below:

Someone Wise Once Said

Posted on 05 February 2012

“Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase, they quit. Most people I know who do interesting, creative work went through years of this. We know our work doesn’t have this special thing that we want it to have. We all go through this. And if you are just starting out or you are still in this phase, you gotta know its normal and the most important thing you can do is do a lot of work. Put yourself on a deadline so that every week you will finish one story. It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions. And I took longer to figure out how to do this than anyone I’ve ever met. It’s gonna take awhile. It’s normal to take awhile. You’ve just gotta fight your way through.“ ‐ Ira Glass (via nefffy)

Sleeping With Celebrities of the Day: Comedian Mark Malkoff — who’s done some pretty weird sh*t in his day — tries to save some cash while visiting Hollywood by attempting to convince a few celebrities (and a few “celebrities”) to let him crash on their couch (or, you know, treehouse).
