What’s the topic of the TED talk? What’s the main idea? When does the speaker introduce his idea? How?
The educational system kills creativity
What are the means of support used by the speaker to convince us that his opinion is right? Provide examples.
These are some:
All kids have tremendous talents that shy away because of what the system wants.Kids are not frightened of being wrong ,yet we make them.We all get educated out of creativity (art and music are the least important subjects)
The ultimate goal in the system is to produce university professors (ironically he is one).We are told that we are never going to get a job by liking music or arts.
Soon degrees will not be worth anything because too many people are getting one. It is not special anymore.
He states that imagination is diverse ,dynamic, and distinct. And we must start to use wisely the gift it is.
What’s the speaker’s conclusion? How does he “conclude”?
He concludes that we have to rebuild society’s concept regarding the potency of our capacities, an, with it, our education system. Because our existing education will not be useful in short.
Opinion paragraph
To briefly understand my viewpoint, as a creative and hard-working person, my aspirations in life have always been diminished into hobbies. For instance, becoming an illustrator or a personal trainer is the frustrated dream of many. You are told you will never be good enough, or you will not make a living out of it. Yet, a ton of people have managed to do such thing. In the meantime, whoever wants to succeed in these fields, also study degrees that reassure that they would somehow get a job. Thus, with having to study a lot for said degrees, this creative skills shy away into past-time activities.
