The value of the creativity

In the video, Ken Robinson speaks to us on the value of the creativity in the children, considering it to be a very important tool in the education of the children. But he says that the schools and the educational system in everywhere do not develop this type of tool because it considers them to be low and they worry about promoting the “formal intelligence". Then, he says that that the educational system of now worries much more of the traditional tools for mathematics and language, for example. And this form of education does not allow developing other tools, such as creativity, and this don’t allow developing “artistic tools” in the children.

Ken argues that the being human has a complex brain and it is dividing in two parts: Artistic and Rational, but the schools only develops in the children the last one part and this is wrong, says Ken. Because the creativity is a very important for an integral development of the intelligence and the education.
