A great video from the animating geniuses at RSA Animation of a lecture by Sir Ken Robinson on the history of education in the Western world, what's amiss with it & why, and where he thinks it ought to go.
The animation is not quite 12 minutes long.
You can get a bigger view here.
If you want, you can also watch the whole lecture (about 55 minutes).
Greater Seattle's Sudbury School, where kids ages 4-19 direct their own education in an environment of undiluted freedom and democracy.
Thanks for this post, Bryan. I'm glad to know about RSA, which appears to be the British equivalent of TED, albeit an older organization.
