Listen to this great talk by Sir Ken Robinson
'Do schools kill creativity?'
http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity.html
and his talk on 'The Element'
http://www.thersa.org/events/vision/vision-videos/sir-ken-robinson-the-element
'Upon this gifted age, in its dark colour,
Rains from the sky a meteoric shower
Of facts …they lie unquestioned, uncombined.
Wisdom enough to leech us of our ill
Is daily spun; but there exists no loom
To weave it into fabric.'
