This will blow your MIND HOLE! (anyone else addicted to How I Met Your Mother?)
I was after some inspiration and motivation and knew that Ken Robinson was the man to turn to (sorry Mike!). I searched his name on You Tube and found this amazing video. Talk about engaging! The facts, the jokes, the drawings... I could go on.
Very excited to be a part of all this change:-) Sounds like we have got a lot of work ahead of us but imagine the potential if nearly every child could fulfil their potential and be doing what they love, instead of doing what they "have to" or "because the money is good". Zzzzzzzzzz.
P.S Despite the stress, I know I am learning heaps! I am totally fearless about trying out new technology now and have spent the day making a concept map (albeit a little dodgy), figuring out how to download you tube vids on to my blog, and I am now sorting out my framework and learning how to add rows into tables, etc (yes I am a true novice!). I truly believe that my motivation is fuelled by the fact that I have the support of my classmates and teachers and I know I can add to the forum any time I am in need of advice or help - as Ken Robinson said, "collaboration is the stuff of growth"!

I'm a big Ken fan (though I used to prefer Barbie ;o)
ReplyDeleteImagine having the skill to be able to produce a video like that? Amazing. Love it. Thank you for sharing.
