Summary Note Our education system is built on an industrial model that focuses on teaching a standardized curriculum to all students the way you would install an engine into a car on an assembly line. But education is not a mechanical process; it is an organic one and we now have the creative and technological resources to change our outmoded approach. In this groundbreaking book, Ken Robinson argues that the real solution to the underlying problems with our education system can be found in understanding the climate in which individual schools and learners will flourish. He shows how harnessing technology to allow for more individualized approaches to learning can benefit students, schools and society as a whole.
