Self-Assesment School 2.0
Standard #1: Reflection results for NETS-T Module: Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity. I watched a short TED A 20-minute video in which Ken Robinson gives an entertaining and inspirational talk about the nature of creativity, its importance in the 21st Century, and how schools need to more effectively address the issue. In his video he explained how creativity had been lost in schools and that we teach kids to only think with their minds and not their whole body, which essentially leads them to only care about academic standards. In turn educators should help students guide to the intelligence of thinking outside the box because it's where ideas are created and how we become a creative individual. I absolutely believe in his talk because my ultimate goal would to become an art teacher one day. Art is the only subject I cared about and made me feel unique.
