From the cover:
"Ken Robinson is one of the world’s most
influential voices in education, and his 2006 TED Talk on the subject is the
most viewed in the organization’s history. Now, the internationally recognized
leader on creativity and human potential focuses on one of the most critical
issues of our time: how to transform the nation’s troubled educational system.
At a time when standardized testing businesses are raking in huge profits, when
many schools are struggling, and students and educators everywhere are suffering
under the strain, Robinson points the way forward. He argues for an end to our
outmoded industrial educational system and proposes a highly personalized,
organic approach that draws on today’s unprecedented technological and
professional resources to engage all students, develop their love of learning,
and enable them to face the real challenges of the twenty-first century. Filled
with anecdotes, observations and recommendations from professionals on the
front line of transformative education, case histories, and groundbreaking
research—and written with Robinson’s trademark wit and engaging style—Creative
Schools will inspire teachers, parents, and policy makers alike to rethink
the real nature and purpose of education".
