two plus two

 

I am sorry folks….

….but the idea of creativity in education is not in sync with the EXAMINATION SYNDROME that schools seem to possess in abundance !

We set up schools…I think….to educate…..but somewhere in history….schools became ‘PREPARATORY GROUNDS’ for careers….

How this can be changed now ??? It is a big challenge !

Learning is linked with economics ????? It is not a great idea…

Maybe we should stop talking of creativity in education….OR…

LET US CHANGE THE FUNDA OF SCHOOLS !!!

creativity in edu

Hi Everyone….

ENOUGH is being talked about the concept of CREATIVITY IN EDUCATION….

Maybe I have missed the point….but Education is seen as a GIVEN and then ‘Creativity is sprinkled’ as a seasoning !!!

Creativity is not….cannot be …an after thought….it has to be the main ingredient…..not a seasoning or a spice…

It is time that the PUNDITS of education understand this small little fact….

 

Syllabus is not the KING …as is made out to be….

it is THE LEARNING PROCESS that is paramount….

….once this fact is put straight….creativity would not HAVE TO be incorporated in learning….it would automatically become the CORE ISSUE !

There is so much talk of education reforms….but probably the real issue is not addressed….


Pegomag has done some analysis on the issue….


 


Here is an excerpt:


“I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think.”
 
Socrates (BC 469-BC 399) Greek philosopher of Athens


What these dreamers…down through the centuries are saying is….


Let us make education a LEARNING Experience…a HUMAN EXPERIENCE…


….and NOT …an Academic militarization….!!!

Here is an excerpt from my article in PEGOMAG…

So to sum up: internet has not killed reading habits. It has improved them, and it stead of not reading books anymore, people go to amazon.com to buy them”

The above might be contrary to the general notion….that internet….and technology in general….has been a major dampener …as far as the love for books/reading is concerned !
