In honour of Toronto’s The York School’s upcoming TEDxIB@York (which alas, I am not attending. I’ll be at OHASSTA instead), I’m sharing with you one of my favourite TED talks. Click below to listen to Sir Ken Robinson talking about disenthralling our ideas about education, particularly innovation in providing personalized, not standardized learning, where kids’ natural talents can flourish.
I’ve also heard from @TheYorkSchool‘s tweeter that they will post videos from their TED conference after the event, so for those like me who are missing it, there’s still hope!
