Ted Talks Video on Creativity:
Why do we squander kids?
Why are kids not afraid to be wrong but adults seem to be?
Why does education kill our creativity?
Why is art not as important as other academics?
What is education good for?
Where do we go when everyone has their PhD because that is considered the norm?
Dean Yonker Presentation on Creativity and The Celebration of Thinking:
Is our curriculum a good one or could it be changed?
Why is there a standardize way of education in schools?
Will this type of educating ever change?

Recently I have thought more about this assignment and come up with these other question:
What is a good school?
Who decides what a good or bad school is?
How is it decided if a school is good/bad?
What is a good teacher?
Can there only be ONE good teacher or many?
If there is only one good teacher, who was/is it?
What is a good education?
Who determines what a good education is?
How is a good education taught?
How is a good education different from other "not so good educations"?
Why do we standardize classes based on the same curriculum that are always structured the same?
Will the curriculum ever change to better benefit students, especially in Canada?
Why can't the curriculum ever change according to a classes learning level or speed of learning?
