Ken Robinson: Do schools kill creativity? (coments)

This monologue was very interesting... the creativity echoes has been always a theme of conversation nowadays... I'm personally agree with all the comments that Ken has made... One of them is the fact that "creativity now... is as important in education... as literacy..." and when we grow up... this interesting  capability is lost in time... My mother told me that when I was a child... and before I've got a sister... I used to have an imaginary friend or some thing like that... and when my sister born... my imaginary friend was replaced whit her... I always remember that I liked to build "houses" and  create new games and histories with her... and I have to admit that my imagination was  faster and more diverse back then...

 Something else that caught my attention was when he mentioned another fact that happened to me... when you are good at something like art...or music...or dance...and you really enjoy doing it... people used to say that you'll  never be successful doing that  in future... I had a personal experience on that... when I was on school my teachers and parents realized that I was good playing instruments and also drawing or painting... so my father tell my that he would bought me a keyboard but that I must to know that it will be only a hobby... then I grow up a little and I start dancing... I teachers said to my parents that I was talented ... so my mom help me to find a dancing company so I can do what I like... When my father found out he goes so mad... and he told me that I only must to study on school... and be worried about my future and things like that... he said that I must to have good grades if I want to keep on doing that... so that's what I do...and on my first presentation he went to see me... and a few days later he said you can work doing that if you like it so much... and that was the first time he realized that dancing was ok and that if you put all your heart on something you can do it well...

 Nowadays I am an architect student and also a hip hop dancer student... but I also being teaching  hip hop dance... and now my father always tell me that I must work doing that instead of being an architect... that I enjoyed much more... But you know what ... I enjoyed both of theme as equally ... I have two ways to express my self... and tow ways to help or entertain people...
