Importance of an Education

My next post is one of the most powerful messages I have read, seen or heard no matter what the vehicle of communication.  The subject and practice of education is one that hits home for me.  I come from a family of teachers as well as graduating from Ohio University with a degree in Integrated Language Arts. 

It just so happens that this post uses innovation and creativity to turn a great lecturer into a phenomenal visual aide that should be heard, seen and appreciated by all.  Below is the video by RSAnimate.



For those of you unfamiliar with Sir Ken Robinson, like I was until viewing this, he speaks to audiences throughout the world on the creative challenges facing businesses and education in the new global economies. 

I could go on for quite a bit upon his credentials and background however, for the purpose of this blog I will inform you all that he is someone that I have come to highly regard and recommend everyone learn for themselves.  Again, my blogs are meant to be educational, not preachy.  Everyone must find their own education.  Teaching is the hardest profession and one that requires sincere dedication and patience.  Whenever I can help spread the importance of education I will be most welcome to do so and this example is no exception. 

I also want to thank RSAnimate for their continued creativity and ingenuity.  This is not their only post to say the least.  They have many, many more along with a wealth of knowledge to be learned.  RSA Home
Until next time . . . .
