This video by the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce (RSA), creates a visual representation of a 12 minute talk by Sir Ken Robinson about what's wrong with our current education system. Although I've heard him explain these concepts before, it seemed like the visual support of drawing illustrations of the concepts helped me integrate them better. Does it help you?

The visual concept helps to support the concept creating the extra connection with the adult learner.

Excellent presentation! I love the artwork. Good information presented in a facinating way. I enjoyed the fast pace, too.
Interesting historical references to get to where education should be headed, not where its going with the beauracratic uproar leading the way. I like the concept presented.
Dear Sir Ken Robinson & Marian Thacher,
You have great post, I have recommend your "concept animation" to my colleagues. With your visual explanation regarding the concept of education in USA, it is easy to visualize several of the aspect that still are taboo, and it is difficult even for educative reforms to accept.
I hope to see more of your material, I hope to see something related to long-life learning and what happens in the corporations either commercial or educative when is necessary to promote the concept of continuing education.
thanks
Ana

Ken Robinson inspired me and I blogged about it here http://www.londonlanguageexperience.com/blog/are-we-being-creative-enough/
