@SirKenRobinson - Nothing Changes The World So Much As A Committed Small Group Of People. #66

This week's show is an interview with the late @SirKenrobinson, one of life's true gentlemen and strong men.

Sir Ken's work in education is unparalleled when it comes to his reach. The @TED talk 'Do Schools Kill Creativity' is still the most widely watched and downloaded TED talk of all time.

Being an 'academic' himself, Sir Ken has been a product of the education system, worked professionally within it and then challenged it for decades to appeal for change.

Why did Sir Ken strongly believe that creativity needed to be introduced and included in the education curriculum and what lead him to challenge Tony Blair's Labor government in the late '90s?

What is 'alternative' education to Sir Ken and how can we get some of these ideas and practices spread into the mainstream system?

This decade will see a huge fundamental shift in education and will look very different in 10 years from now.

Words cannot describe how saddened I was to learn of Sir Ken's passing.

I hope this interview will go some way to helping spread his work and keeping this conversation alive.

Thank you Sir Ken.
