Creativity Crisis

[Sundae]

I also think that pushing every child towards Uni (college) is damaging to the adolescents who love learning for its own sake. For the future scholars, lecturers, Professors etc. With Universities clogged up with students aiming to scrape through with the lowest grades in order to say they have a degree, in a subject they have no real interest in, the HE experience also becomes watered down.

I'm amazed at the creativity of the children I work with. In all aspects from a simple display of imagination to more complex problem solving (age-appropriate of course) they still throw their whole focus into things. I'm lucky that I'm working with them at an age where so many things are new, but I hope this is something that is encouraged throughout their educational life.
