I watched this youtube video on the advice of a friend whose teachers wanted her to medicate her son, only for him to be later diagnosed as a bit of a musical and science genius. It's very interesting though for anyone who has kids in school, particularly those who are "struggling" in some aspects of their education.
RSA Animate - Changing Education Paradigms - YouTube!
Just watching - LOVE Sir Ken, check out his talks on creativity in schools on TED if you have time! Wonderful stuff.
ETA: SO interesting about the map of where ADHD is higher and also the link of the incidents of it rising with the rise of standardised testing.
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
I agree with everything the clip said. Working in tertiary education, I find that it is really hard for students to learn how to think critically and creatively as primary and secondary schools basically discourage kids from thinking for themselves...
Thank you so much for sharing, it was very interesting.
I agree with him, I have seen it in my own children.
