EdCafe Takeaway

Sir Ken Robinson described humans as being inherently diverse, curious, and creative, but our current educational system in the United States is one based on standardized testing and conformity.  In order for people to thrive as learners, we need to personalize learning and create a culture that is conducive to diversity, curiosity, and creativity.  As an educator, I struggle with finding the right balance between encouraging curiosity and creativity and teaching children school/classroom expectations in order to manage a classroom.
