It’s my birthday so I’m trying to not work. Can’t help it.

Some day I hope to attend the TED Conference. Here’s a thought provoking video. A tad long and the humor may be a bit dry but there are some gems in there.

Here are a few notes I jotted down:

  • Teaching creativity is as important as literacy.
  • Children are not frightened to be wrong. If you are not prepared to be wrong, you will never come up with anything original.
  • Schools stigmatize mistakes.
  • Schools educate creativity out of us.
  • Definition of creativity: The process of having original ideas that have value.
