TED Talks With Group Discussion


Do schools kill creativity?

Back in 2006, Sir Ken Robinson posed this question to the TED audience -- and it touched a nerve.  And why should creativity be a focus at all?  Creativity expert Robinson challenged the way we educate our children, championing a radical rethink of how our school systems cultivate creativity and acknowledge multiple types of intelligence. 

Our host, Anna Meadows, chose this talk because Robinson is a good speaker, very funny, but serious about his premise – and looks forward to a discussion.

Join us for another “TED Talks Penn’s Village,” in which program participants view a TED Talk together and then discuss it with the help of a social host who will stimulate and guide conversation. TED Talks (Technology, Entertainment, Design) are presentations from around the world in which people with a passion for a subject share that love with their audiences.
