Ken Robinson: How to escape education's death valley | Video on TED.com

Sir Ken Robinson outlines 3 principles crucial for the human mind to flourish -- and how current education culture works against them.
Amy Burns's insight:

So simple, yet so profound.  Sir Ken Robinson delivers a clear message about why there are so many problems in education today.  Delivered with humor and then a one-two punch.  Worth watching!
