Sir Ken Robinson makes the case for a radical shift from standardised schools to personalised learning - creating conditions where kids' natural talents can flourish.
Sir Ken Robinson believes we have to go from what is essentially an industrial model of education, a manufacturing model, which is based on linearity and conformity and batching people. Ultimately, move to a model that is based more on principles of agriculture, recognising that human flourishing is not a mechanical process; it's an organic process. And you cannot predict the outcome of human development. All you can do, like a farmer, is create the conditions under which they will begin to flourish.
So when looking at reforming education and transforming it, it isn't like cloning a system. There are great ones, like KIPP's; it's a great system. There are many great models. It's about customizing to circumstances and personalizing education to the people you're actually teaching. And doing that, is the answer to the future because it's not about scaling a new solution; it's about creating a movement in education in which people develop their own solutions, but with external support based on a personalized curriculum.
