TED is an annual conference described as "Riveting talks by remarkable people". Creativity expert Sir Ken Robinson challenges the way we're educating
our children. He champions a radical rethink of our school systems, to
cultivate creativitySir Ken Robinson makes an entertaining and profoundly moving case for creating an education system that nurtures (rather than undermines) creativity.
He claims teaching and allowing creativity is as important as literature.
Some would say this video has nothing to do with Christian school system. However I think it is Christian schools who can help challenge the dominant culture and create different models. It is important for Christian schools to understand that our education system can be more influenced by society and culture than by our faith.
This video and more information on the speaker is available at TED.
Christian Schools Blogsite Discussion
Around the world there is a wonderful diversity of Christian schools. This blogsite includes articles and promotional videos for, and about, Christian schools. The inclusion of material is not an endorsement.
Hopefully these articles, videos and examples from around the world will help parents better understand the different visions of Christian schools. The goal is for parents to be better equipped to ask questions. It may help Christian schools evaluate what messages they are sending out to their community.
