Changing Education Paradigms by B Emad-Turner Fenton Secondary School

p0189221 — 2025-02-05 15:24:32 UTC

What is the main point of the video?

2025-09-09 14:01:45 UTC

I think that the main point of the video is how education has changed and how it is affecting people.

2025-09-09 14:03:06 UTC

Talks about how education is going in the wrong way entirely

2025-09-09 14:03:16 UTC

Categorizing people by age in schooling systems will provide the most generalized irrelevant learning environment. It is better to categorize them based on test scores in different subjects to fit best a person where they will learn the most relevant material to them.

2025-09-09 14:03:23 UTC

This video talks about how the current education system is problematic

762222_2 — 2025-09-09 14:03:35 UTC

The school system is old and doesn't work well anymore. It was made for the past, not for today's word, and it kills kid's creativity.

-Arsh Dhillon

2025-09-09 14:04:32 UTC

The whole thing is that our system of education is too old and has to evolve in order to suit the modern world and learners.

2025-09-09 14:04:40 UTC

Most people and even adults cannot keep an attention span. ADHD is a crisis because of technology. People cannot go half an hour of sitting and doing nothing anymore and it really affects entirely takes the education system as it is outdated to the 21st century.

2025-09-09 14:04:40 UTC

Newer education systems are outdated and fail to cater to creativity

2025-09-09 14:04:43 UTC

some kids are better math, others are better than English, but it might just be that they are a level too high for themselves to learn best

762222_2 — 2025-09-09 14:05:01 UTC

Schools group kids by age like a factory line instead of how they learn best

2025-09-09 14:05:30 UTC

One of these supporting arguments is that schools have long been run in a factory-like mode, with the kids being grouped by age rather than their abilities or interests.

2025-09-09 14:06:00 UTC

Knowing that our generation cannot retain information as long, that we aren't made for this outdated school system either

2025-09-09 14:06:19 UTC

I found out the extent to which schools kill creativity. It put me in mind how the students are driven to study in the same manner rather than exploiting their abilities.

889305_1 — 2025-09-09 14:06:23 UTC

The main point of the video is that the education system is old and focuses too much on tests and standard rules. Schools should instead support creativity, teamwork, and different kinds of learning to help students be ready for the future.

2025-09-09 14:06:49 UTC

The objective of the video is that our current educational system is outdated. The system limits creativity. School's should shift their focus on divergent thinking, collaboration, and expressing individuality to prepare students for the current and evolving world.

2025-09-09 14:06:53 UTC

This video explains that today’s school system is outdated, focusing too much on tests and conformity instead of creativity and curiosity. Robinson argues it stifles imagination and even mislabels kids, and he believes education needs a shift toward creativity, collaboration, and helping students discover their talents.

2025-09-09 14:06:56 UTC

A supporting point is how education does not have the same factor as it once had in people because of how getting a degree or diploma does not guarantee you get a job

2025-09-09 14:07:34 UTC

Something that disappointed me was that the education system has not been refreshed as a model since its release while the entire world refreshed tens of times over all around it.

2025-09-09 14:07:37 UTC

Rather than students being grouped by their abilities and learning skills, they’re grouped by age and that doesn’t help the students that learn differently

909634_1 — 2025-09-09 14:07:47 UTC

The main point of this video is that our current education system is outdated and needs to change to better prepare students for today's world by encouraging creativity,critical thinking, and individuality.

762222_2 — 2025-09-09 14:07:55 UTC

I was surprised that little kids test higher for creativity but the older they get in school the worse score they get. that shows school is making creativity go away.

2025-09-09 14:08:19 UTC

Allowing us to communicate more with our teachers as well as ask for help more - some of us learn different ways and I like that the education system is starting to understand this a bit

2025-09-09 14:08:42 UTC

One example Robinson gives is that kids start off very creative, but as they move through school, that creativity fades. This shows how the system actually limits imagination instead of helping it grow.

2025-09-09 14:08:56 UTC

Zaid Alharairi

Answer: The most important change in education is moving away from a one size fits all system to one that supports each student’s unique talents and creativity. The current system, built during the industrial age, focuses too much on testing and standard rules, which often kills curiosity. A better system would help students learn in their own way, encouraging imagination and real world skills.

2025-09-09 14:09:15 UTC

The most effective one would be to pay more attention to creativity and critical thinking rather than memorizing facts as it would prepare students to face the real world.

2025-09-09 14:09:31 UTC

I am surprised that so many kids were able to give creative at a young age.

889305_1 — 2025-09-09 14:09:39 UTC

One supporting point is that schools are set up like factories, with bells, age groups, and strict subjects, which limits creativity and makes learning feel standardized instead of personal.

761690_3 — 2025-09-09 14:09:45 UTC

The video shows that our school system is old and it no longer fits the way the world operates it was like for the past and not for the future.

762222_2 — 2025-09-09 14:09:58 UTC

The most important change would be letting students be creative and think in different ways instead of focusing on just one right answers and tests.

2025-09-09 14:10:04 UTC

School limits creativity. The education system wants things a certain way and in the long run, students lose their ability to innovate new ideas and concepts.

2025-09-09 14:10:24 UTC

What surprised me was when Robinson explained that a lot of kids are labeled with ADHD, not always because they have a real disorder, but because schools can’t manage their natural energy and curiosity. It’s surprising to realize that instead of adjusting how we teach, we often try to make students fit the system by medicating them.

2025-09-09 14:11:04 UTC

The main point of the video is how the system is failing us and is not evolving as fast as society.

2025-09-09 14:11:36 UTC

The most effective change would be allowing more room for creativity and self expression. It would allow students to find the fun in learning and it would make them want to do more.

2025-09-09 14:11:55 UTC

Something that I think could help is the Indigenous learning system. I took the Indigenous English course last year, and the way it was modeled is better, in my opinion. The way of learning was not linear, it was circular. Every new topic somehow tied into another topic

2025-09-09 14:12:03 UTC

I think the most impactful change in education would be shifting away from focusing only on tests and standardization, and instead creating learning that encourages creativity and critical thinking. This would matter because it prepares students for real-life challenges, helps them discover their strengths, and makes school more meaningful rather than just something to get through.

761690_3 — 2025-09-09 14:12:04 UTC

That schools are worrying to much about our grades and test causing children to lose creativity rather than being excited to learn.

889305_1 — 2025-09-09 14:12:21 UTC

Something that surprised me was how creativity in kids drops as they get older. The study showed that almost all kindergarten kids scored at a genius level for creative thinking, but as they went through school, the numbers went way down. It surprised me because school is supposed to help us grow, but instead it seems to limit creativity.

2025-09-09 14:12:40 UTC

He argues that the current education system is outdated and holds back creativity . He urges a full redesign that supports different talents, promotes creative thinking, and breaks away from strict, one generic solution .

2025-09-09 14:14:02 UTC

How technology is the reason we cannot focus that is because while we scroll through reels, tiktoks, shorts etc our brain gets an increase in dopamine. When getting that increase in dopamine our brain and body craves it more from 15-30 sec videos.

909634_1 — 2025-09-09 14:14:24 UTC

One supporting point from the video is that our education system was originally designed during the industrial revolution, when schools were structured like factories to produce workers. Students were grouped by age, taught the same way, and expected to learn the same things at the same pace. Robinson explains that this system worked in the past but doesn't fit the demands of today's creative and fast-changing world.

889305_1 — 2025-09-09 14:14:35 UTC

The most impactful change in education would be focusing less on standardized testing and more on creativity and collaboration. This would help students use their own strengths, feel more engaged in learning, and be better prepared for real-life situations instead of just memorizing answers.

2025-09-09 14:14:48 UTC

The most impactful change in education to me has been the move to online schooling. It fits the mold of students who like to stay home, are not at their best around others, like to study in a new modernized way with somewhat new material than the traditional textbook, paper, and pencil. It is a great change as students should be able to learn/ work along and with technology and find what methods of use will help themselves improve themselves best.

761690_3 — 2025-09-09 14:15:11 UTC

Surprised to know that schools are just training us to do jobs that are not existence in now basically that school hasn't changed at all.

2025-09-09 14:15:25 UTC

Zaid Alharairi

Answer: The video says our school system is old and doesn't help kids be creative or think in different ways. It says we need to change how we teach so that students can learn better and use their real talents.

2025-09-09 14:15:27 UTC

I think the update that will give the most change is how people are changing their lectures to be more interactive and the assignments are more creative.

2025-09-09 14:17:01 UTC

I think that the problem could be solved is by implementing more creative thinking into the class tasks. For an example, quoting my last computer science class teacher, there are like infinite ways to program a piece of software to do one thing

2025-09-09 14:17:04 UTC

Zaid Alharairi

Answer: I was surprised that kids are very creative when they are young but lose it as they grow up. It made me think that schools should help kids stay creative and think in their own way.

761690_3 — 2025-09-09 14:18:11 UTC

Allowing students to be more independent and schools not just about memorising answers but learning about real life experiences.

2025-09-09 14:18:52 UTC

Zaid Alharairi

Answer: Schools were made a long time ago to work like factories. This way of teaching doesn’t help kids learn the best today, so schools need to change.

909634_1 — 2025-09-09 14:20:16 UTC

What surprised me the most was when Robinson explained that divergent thinking, which is the ability to think of multiple solutions to a problem, is strongest in young children but declines as they go through school. This really stood out to me because it shows how the current system unintentionally limits creativity by forcing everyone to think the same way.

2025-09-09 14:27:17 UTC

As stated in the objective, creatively is limited through the course of the educational system. In the video, it states that students in beginning of the school system have a creative mindset, but as they climb the ladder of education, this creative mindset diminishes. This point articulates how we limit creativity, individually and the use of our imagination to help us flourish the higher we proceed in the educational system.

909634_1 — 2025-09-09 14:29:04 UTC

After watching the video, the most impactful change I would like to see is personalized learning. Instead of treating students as if they all learn the same way, schools should focus on individuality, helping students explore their interests, develop their strengths, and learn at their own pace. Robinson's message inspired me to believe that education should prepare us to think creatively and solve real-world problems, not just memorize information.

2025-09-09 14:32:04 UTC

What surprised and disappointed me was how there has been no change to improve and revitalize something so important like the educational system. The educational system is the stem to improving the world, so the lack of fresh and new ideas and concepts slow down the great change we can see in the world.

2025-09-09 14:35:23 UTC

Many kids are labeled with ADHD just because they're bored in class. This system doesn't fit natural curiosity, so it shuts down their creativity instead of adapting to their needs.

2025-09-09 14:35:54 UTC

The most important change is to embrace the ideology of creatively in all aspects. Let students explore and learn in a way that is allows for their minds to flow and find themselves. Making school an interactive and impactful experience rather than dreading the system.

2025-09-09 14:44:57 UTC

I found it interesting that how schools separate subjects like art and science. This video made me realize that creativity matters in every subjects, not just in the arts .

2025-09-09 14:50:14 UTC

I think the best in education is letting students learn in different ways instead of using the same method for everyone. The video showed that when kids can be creative and think differently, they learn better and feel more confident .

2025-09-09 15:27:25 UTC

I believe the main point of the video is that education needs to move from standard to creative and personalized learning.

752264_1 — 2025-09-09 16:56:14 UTC

The main point of the video is that public education in outdated leading to kids suffering long-term and how school system needs to be changed.

752264_1 — 2025-09-09 17:05:39 UTC

Robinson states in the video that the school system is trying to meet the future with the stuff they were doing in the past. He also says how modern technology and all of the attention that kids give out, makes them unable to focus on one thing for very long, which makes the system outdated.

752264_1 — 2025-09-09 17:12:26 UTC

One thing that disappointed me is how much effect the school system has had on my creativity. I tried pausing the video and thinking when he asked how many ways I can use a paper clip. I couldn't think of more than 5 ways to use it.

752264_1 — 2025-09-09 17:14:17 UTC

One thing I think could be very impactful for the modern generation of students would be to have personalized learning so that students can have more education in the things that they want to learn and will ultimately be better at.

2025-09-09 17:29:15 UTC

Something that interested me was that he called ADHD a plague. As if it is contagious. I never thought of it this way and I am not sure I agree with this. Yes, ADHD is a thing many people struggle with, but it is not past to friends and people surrounding you. There should be no fear of someone getting ADHD like how someone gets the flu. It is a gene that can be passed down, that cannot just appear in your life. I am disappointed he called it a plague, but many other things he said were quite interesting.

763343_1 — 2025-09-09 17:38:21 UTC

The main point of this video is to acknowledge that our school system is outdated and is killing creativity

763343_1 — 2025-09-09 17:39:50 UTC

One supporting point is that schools often treat kids as if we are working in a factory through things such as ringing bells and grouping kids by age

763343_1 — 2025-09-09 17:42:20 UTC

Something that I found interesting about this video is that it explains how young kids naturally score high in creativity tests, but this ability later drops as they come to spend more time within school

763343_1 — 2025-09-09 17:44:14 UTC

I believe that the most impactful change would be moving away from standardized testing and towards more creative and/or personalized learning as it would allow students to display their strengths, stay engaged, and enjoy learning as compared to how the school systems are today.

752401_1 — 2025-09-09 17:49:35 UTC

The main idea conveyed in the video is that the modern education system is outdated, as it was created for the Industrial Revolution. However, the world around us, such as technology, jobs, society, and the way we live, has all drastically changed, while the education system has remained almost the same.

2025-09-09 18:32:30 UTC

The main point is that our current education system is outdated and kills creativity

2025-09-09 18:35:58 UTC

shifting from standardized teaching to personalized learning. because each student got a different learning style than his friends in school

2025-09-09 18:37:06 UTC

The rise of ADHD diagnoses is a prime example of how educational systems are outdated and fail to engage students.

7828551 — 2025-09-09 18:37:36 UTC

2025-09-09 18:42:28 UTC

I like how Sir Ken Robinson says we should wake kids up by “celebrating their creativity, not putting it to sleep”. Schools are getting better in introducing more unconventional and innovative approaches to educating, but there is still room for growth and further understanding of our students’ needs.

754415 — 2025-09-09 18:43:37 UTC

Something that interested me was the fact that as we grow older we tend to believe that there can only be one answer which ruins the space from creativity. The reason why I think this is so interesting is because I can actually see it happening in the education system.

2025-09-09 18:45:28 UTC

This video sheds light on the educational concerns, and crisis we're facing today.

2025-09-09 18:45:40 UTC

I see the most impactful change in education as shifting away from standardization and toward fostering creativity and individuality. Sir Ken Robinson explained that the current system was built during the Industrial Revolution and still treats students like they are on a factory line—same age groups, same tests, same “right” answers. This limits divergent thinking and makes many students feel they are “not smart” if they don’t fit the academic mold. If education instead focused on developing each student’s unique talents, encouraging collaboration, and waking them up to their own abilities, more students would feel engaged and prepared for a future that values creativity and problem-solving.

754415 — 2025-09-09 18:49:57 UTC

The way I see it is that while education is not inherently a bad it's oudated in the sense that it doesn't allow students to really think for themselves or be creative. We've been brought up to learn that there can only be one answer but it's not all true, there's more than one answer. Therefore when we learn about these topics they apear boring which is why we look for something else to keep our focus but if we can break these guidelines then students will be more willing to engage in discussions.

2025-09-09 18:57:29 UTC

The video amplifies the fact that our entire school system is outdated and no longer serves our children. Stuck in an old factory-style setup with bells, age-based groups, and one-size-fits-all lessons setup, we are killing creativity and pushing labels kids like ADHD when maybe they’re just bored, nevertheless, not interested in learning the way it’s taught. He vouches for a big change in the traditional school system, as he believes it will vastly improve our future generations chance at an successful education.

9844711 — 2025-09-09 18:58:42 UTC

In my opinion, the main point of the video is about education and today's generation, and how some of the old stuff in school would not work with today's children due to social media and "medication.

2025-09-09 19:42:16 UTC

The main point in this video is that education today has evolved significantly over time. Aspects of the old education isolate kids who are considered "dumb" leading them to have poor self-esteem. However, the education system fails to incorporate how they can support those that are struggling.

753689 — 2025-09-09 19:50:36 UTC

The main point of the video is to highlight how outdated the school system is and how it no longer meets the needs of the current generation, as it limits their creativity.

753689 — 2025-09-09 19:59:09 UTC

One supporting point is that the education system was created during the Industrial Revolution and schools were designed to function like factories. Features such as the use of bells, separating ages, and strict subjects have contributed to limiting students' creativity.

753689 — 2025-09-09 20:10:04 UTC

Something that I found very interesting about the video is that it explains how young children are naturally very creative, but over time, they tend to lose this ability as they progress through the school system. I also find this disappointing, as no significant changes have been made to improve the education system and boost students' creativity.

2025-09-09 20:10:14 UTC

The rise of ADHD in the USA shows how the education system is no longer viable as it fails to engage students that aren't interested.

753689 — 2025-09-09 20:16:38 UTC

I believe that the most impactful change in education would be to allow students to learn in their own way and at their own pace. This approach would help them develop a deeper understanding of subjects while also preserving their creativity and individuality.

2025-09-09 20:51:53 UTC

In my opinion, the most impactful change in education is the developing relationship between teachers and students. We're getting to the point where teachers now understand how they can improve learning for students.

2025-09-09 20:55:24 UTC

One thing that disappointed me was how little the school system adapts to student needs in the case of the video, ADHD. On the other hand I found the use of ADHD a plague was surprising it was not contagious. And interesting enough I found that many students struggle not due to a lack of ability, but the failure of the school system to engage them.

2025-09-09 21:06:58 UTC

The video says our school system is old-fashioned. Basically stating the fact that it focuses too much on rules and sameness, and needs big changes to help students be creative and ready for the future.

2025-09-09 21:09:34 UTC

An evidence that supports my point is how Robinson explains that many kids are labeled with ADHD and given medicine, but the real problem is a boring school system that punishes questions kids have to ask basically stating everyone should be at the same level, which is not possible as everyone is different/ work different

2025-09-09 21:13:14 UTC

I was surprised to learn that young kids are naturally creative, but eventually fading their creativitey as they go through school since their is a standard school education that everyone has to follow. It showed me that standard teaching can unintentionally limit creativity, which is worrying because it wastes students potential to be who they truley are without even realizing it because of the "normal" standards of education.

2025-09-09 21:21:12 UTC

The most impactful change in education I think personally is needing to moving away from strict schedules, constant testing making yourself feel pressured, but instead focusing on creative, flexible, and group learning. Allowing for yourself to adapt yourknowledge for peers and learn new things you may have not known through one another. I believe this would help students use their prepare better for the future/real world testing yourself outside of the 4 walls known as school.

2025-09-09 21:54:56 UTC

The main focus point of this video is how it highlights the eeucational issues and crisis that we are facing today. I think another focus of the video is that how the education fieild has developed over the years.

2025-09-09 21:57:52 UTC

Social media is one of the reasons why we are not capable of focusing because when we are scrolling on social media videos and as we are scrolling we are getting and increase of dopamine which is actually the thing that is making us not focus as we are getting an increase of that which makes us want to watch more videos like this.

2025-09-09 22:01:05 UTC

One point that I found really interesting from the video is how it shows how young childrens are already natrually creative on their own but when they spend so much more years at school they start to loose their creativite and their own ideas over the years as they get older.

2025-09-09 22:02:00 UTC

I think that the most impactful answer would be just letting the kids be creative in their own ways and not being limited to it.

2025-09-09 22:32:22 UTC

I believe the video explains that schools today are based on an old system made for the past, where everyone is taught the same way and grouped by age, like a factory. Ken Robinson says this method kills creativity and doesn’t prepare students for today’s world. He believes schools should change to focus more on creativity, individual talents, and different ways of learning instead of making everyone learn the same thing the same way.

2025-09-09 22:35:38 UTC

One supporting point from the video is that schools group students by age instead of ability or interests. This means everyone is expected to learn the same things at the same speed, even though students are all different. Sir Ken Robinson says this system doesn’t let kids use their own strengths and creativity, which can make learning harder and less enjoyable.

2025-09-09 22:41:11 UTC

Something that surprised me in the video is that schools today still use a system designed hundreds of years ago during the Industrial Revolution. It was unexpected to learn that education hasn’t changed much, even though the world, technology, and the skills we need are completely different now. Ken Robinson explains that this outdated system focuses more on standardization than creativity, which was surprising because it shows why many students struggle to stay engaged in school.

2025-09-09 22:43:48 UTC

The most impactful change in education for me would be focusing more on creativity and individual learning instead of making everyone learn the same way. Every student has different strengths, talents, and interests, so schools should encourage personalized learning where students can explore what they are good at and passionate about. This change would make learning more engaging, enjoyable, and useful for preparing students for real-life challenges.

755548_3 — 2025-09-09 23:12:09 UTC

[ZAKI A.] - This video demonstrates how our current education system fails to spark the creativity that students of this generation need for the modern, and future world. It emphasizes that we need to start investigating alternative approaches to education, which invites creativity in students, critical thinking, and the development of skills and talents, instead of conforming to this 'industrial age' system that we're currently under.

755548_3 — 2025-09-09 23:14:41 UTC

[ZAKI A.] - In this video, Mr. Robinson states that our current school system is overlooking the individual, unique learning styles of diverse students, and this discourages creativity, by hindering the ability to come up with several approaches to a problem.

755548_3 — 2025-09-09 23:18:35 UTC

[ZAKI A.] - Something I found really interesting was how divergent thinking is suppressed in students as they progress through the educational system. This is because they're forced to conform to the school system, which as stated previously, does not support creativity as much as it should. Furthermore, I already know that the school system has to make some type of change because of my personal experiences, but I found it very shocking how we're still following structures from the industrial revolution, where students came to school to be educated, and turn out as simple workers. Some people refer to this as the 'matrix', and the people who break out of the 'matrix' are those who are CEO's or entrepreneurs.

755548_3 — 2025-09-09 23:21:15 UTC

[ZAKI A.] - The most impactful change in the education system would definitely be shifting perspectives, from a conformity standpoint to a personalized education approach. This would allow students to pursue opportunities which allow them to fulfill their interests and strengths. This would also make everyone better problem solvers and more innovative.

2025-09-09 23:26:37 UTC

Modern education is modeled on the interests of industrialization and the image of it. Education is not catered to every student and their strengths and talents but rather a factory to make students conform to a mold and come out as a desired product of industrialization and not creativity. Often, students are not encouraged to do divergent thinking and think creatively. The system decreases creativity and it has been proven through studies. Thus, we have to create a new model of education that caters to every student and brings out the best of them.

2025-09-09 23:29:28 UTC

The study that was conducted to kids regarding their genius level based on their creativity supports the main point. As their ages increased, their creativity levels decreased. The steady increase in their 'education' and age led to a steady decrease of their creativity and genius levels. The system also forces everyone to conform and go through the same testing as everyone instead of nurturing their own talents and bringing out the best in each and every student.

2025-09-09 23:31:02 UTC

The study that was conducted surprised me as I did not expect such creativity from kids of such a young age and for the test conducted on older students, I did not expect a decrease in their genius level. It was surprising and shocking to see such a study to give such a result.

2025-09-09 23:35:08 UTC

I saw the introduction of Summer School and other forms of schooling (such as OVS) as the most impactful change in education as it gives students a chance to get a better mark and lets students go about in their own pace of studying and convenience. This allows students to have increased creativity at their hours of productivity and deliver better results and brings out the best in each student, as the video had stated.

752401_1 — 2025-09-09 23:35:33 UTC

The school system is currently organized similarly to that of a factory. Children are grouped together by age, and this approach ignores the fact that students of the same age can have drastically different learning levels and needs. One 17 year old may have many difficulties and another 17 year old may have no problems at all with work, and this can cause people to fall behind. Rather, children should be categorized together by their learning level, ensuring that everyone has an equal chance to learn at all times without the fear of being left behind.

752401_1 — 2025-09-09 23:47:25 UTC

I was surprised to learn that as children get older and go through the school system, their creativity often decreases. Younger children have a very creative mind just at a young age, and you would expect it to grow as they recieve more education, but as they go into the school system, their creativity becomes more limited as they are essentially forced to think the same way. This shows the negative impact the current school system can have on children's creativity, which is really disappointing.

752401_1 — 2025-09-10 00:24:06 UTC

In my opinion, the most impactful change should be centered around boosting the creativity of children, as it helps them to think in new ways and express themselves. Schools should steer away from standardized tests and memorization, and instead prioritize learning that encourages students to be creative and think of multiple different solutions rather than just one straightforward answer. A creative-focused approach would help children be prepared for real-world challenges.

2025-09-10 00:51:55 UTC

I believe that the main point of this video is how the current education system is outdated and is not as efficient as it has the potential to be.

2025-09-10 00:59:28 UTC

Ken Robinson supports his main point with the idea that the school system is outdated because it has not fully adapted to modern technology and the new way of life, especially in the way children focus. He talks about how students become distracted and get penalized by their teachers while being taught the old-fashioned way, which is not in line with the modern way of life.

2025-09-10 01:01:06 UTC

His points about children being given ADHD pills everyday so that they can focus during so called boring and outdated lessons.

2025-09-10 01:05:25 UTC

The education system should utilize technology to the benefit of its students. I stand with this idea because technology is the future and is a useful tool for our future. The education system will need to find a strong balance to properly teach the use of technology, while the students do not become addicted to their devices.

756927_1 — 2025-09-10 01:14:06 UTC

[Sharim Anwar]: I feel that the main point of this video is how it argues that our current school systems are old-fashioned or outdated. It fails to make the students of this generation excited to learn and to use their creativity, which they need for the present and the future. A more creative and personalized approach to education that satisfies one another is what is needed.

756927_1 — 2025-09-10 01:38:15 UTC

[Sharim Anwar]: One example that supports the main theme is how schools are outdated and set up in a way where it limits creativity and makes learning feel like an obligation and not personal with how schools are set up like factories with strict classes and bells.

756927_1 — 2025-09-10 01:42:11 UTC

[Sharim Anwar]: One thing that surprised me and has stayed with me is how around 98% of kindergarteners score at a genius level for divergent thinking, and how it slowly gets lower throughout the years of when we get older. It showed to me how the education system can suppress and decrease the creativity inside of children over time, which is not only surprising but also devastating to know this for our future generation.

756927_1 — 2025-09-10 01:50:58 UTC

[Sharim Anwar]: I feel that the most impactful change in education nowadays is shifting from a system where everyone learns the same exact way no matter if they like it or not to a style that emphasizes creativity and fits that individual not only in academic measures but in general. I feel that this kind of change can strengthen children with their curiosity and also for the future with unexpected turns and whatever it hold for them.

2025-09-10 02:08:16 UTC

In my opinion, the main point of the video is to highlight the problem in today's world of education not evolving with society and students of todays world.

2025-09-10 02:17:45 UTC

Children are living in the most intensely stimulating period in history and they're getting penalized for not being able to focus. So, what happens is they're given pills to deal with this to almost dull their minds so they only focus on 1 thing. That 1 thing is the same boring, out dated curriculum that's been taught for generations.

2025-09-10 02:24:36 UTC

I found the whole study around divergent thinking quite interesting. It's different than creativity, more of a capacity for it. Divergent thinking is the ability to see more than 1 answer to every question and stretch the mind. We all have this capacity. I personally would like to harness this way of thinking and after watching this video will do a deeper dive into the study of this way of thinking. I believe it will be very useful to me in the future, especially if I want to become an architect.

2025-09-10 02:28:59 UTC

The most impactful change in education in my opinion would be to promote creativity and collaboration more. Have students work together to achieve a goal, solve a problem. Independent work is good but a project is always better, more put together, and more thorough when there are more than just 1 or 2 minds working together. The creativity is endless.

1034621_1 — 2025-09-10 04:35:41 UTC

The main point of the video is that the current education system is outdated. It was designed for the industrial age and focuses too much on standardization and testing instead of creativity and critical thinking.

1034621_1 — 2025-09-10 04:36:04 UTC

One supporting point is that schools were built on the factory model. They were meant to prepare students for factory jobs during the Industrial Revolution, which is not useful in today’s world that values innovation and flexibility.

1034621_1 — 2025-09-10 04:36:24 UTC

I was surprised that creativity actually decreases as children grow older in school. I always thought education should help students become more creative, but the video showed that the system often reduces imagination instead of supporting it.

1034621_1 — 2025-09-10 04:36:41 UTC

The most impactful change in education would be moving toward personalized learning. If schools focus on each student’s strengths and interests, students would stay more engaged and motivated, and they would be better prepared for future challenges.

818451_2 — 2025-09-10 12:39:49 UTC

I believe the main point of this video is how the current education system is outdated, doesn't work, and doesn't help students show their creativity. - Thendral Cheran

818451_2 — 2025-09-10 12:43:11 UTC

One supporting point is that school isn't always grouping students together in a beneficial way for the students, as they are grouped together by their age and not my their abilities, strengths, or weaknesses. - Thendral Cheran

818451_2 — 2025-09-10 12:46:28 UTC

Something that surprised me is the extent to which schools kill creativity among students, as well and the decreasing attention span among students. - Thendral Cheran

818451_2 — 2025-09-10 12:50:34 UTC

I believe the most impactful change would be to start to focus on the creativity of students as well as their individual strengths, weaknesses, and abilities in general, this way students don't have to be stuck in an environment that they don't thrive in, and they get a chance to work with teachers at their own pace without feeling the pressure to catch up.

2025-09-10 13:35:14 UTC

I believe the main point of this video is that education is staying the same even though the world around us is evolving.

2025-09-10 13:39:57 UTC

One supporting point is that our modern education systems are using systems that are deeply rooted in outdated practices, and they are now changing their ways, even though students learn and behave differently now.

2025-09-10 13:42:09 UTC

Something disappointing is that even though students test as smarter as they grow up, they are now at a much lower level of individuality and uniqueness.

2025-09-10 13:43:59 UTC

A really impactful change in education should be the wide variety of learning, not only mathematical and scientific, but also creative.

2025-09-10 16:41:09 UTC

The main point is that our current school system is outdated, built for the industrial age, and it no longer serves the needs of today’s world. Sir Ken Robinson argues that education lacks creativity by promoting conformity, standardization, and narrow definitions of intelligence, while disengaged students are often mislabeled with problems like ADHD. He shows that children naturally have high creative potential, but traditional schooling suppresses it over time. Robinson calls for a paradigm shift.

2025-09-10 16:41:29 UTC

One supporting point is that studies showed that 98% of young children scored at the “genius” level in creative problem-solving. This ability declined as they progressed through school showing how traditional education actually suppresses creativity instead of nurturing it.

2025-09-10 16:41:41 UTC

One surprising point is how strongly schooling reduces creativity over time. Young children naturally think in imaginative, flexible ways, but by the time they’re older most lose that ability because they’ve been trained to look for one “right” answer. It’s eye-opening to see how the system unintentionally teaches kids out of creativity.

2025-09-10 16:41:57 UTC

I see the most impactful change in education as shifting from standardization to personalization, designing learning around students individual strengths, interests and ways of thinking rather than treating everyone the same. This matters because it would help more students stay engaged, nurture creativity instead of suppressing it,

2025-09-10 17:39:00 UTC

This video explains that the education system needs to change. As the times change, the previous emphasis on exams and following the rules may no longer be applicable. He believes that the previous system has hindered the development of creativity.

2025-09-10 17:52:02 UTC

The modern education system originated during the Industrial Revolution. Back then, the goal was to train rule-abiding workers. Schools, like factories, had regular schedules and standardized curricula, which limited imagination and creativity. Today, we no longer need people who simply obey orders, but rather those who can think independently and solve problems.

2025-09-10 17:56:44 UTC

Many people have rich imagination and curiosity when they are young, but as they are influenced by the current education system, they are gradually worn away and lose their original creativity over time. This is disappointing and not what schools should want to see.

2025-09-10 18:00:22 UTC

I believe that the most impactful change in education should not be just about imparting knowledge, but also about understanding students' abilities and interests, so that students can learn critical thinking, creativity and problem-solving, so that the education system can be more meaningful.

2025-09-11 03:18:28 UTC

He argues that current education is modelled as an industrial paradigm, structured similarly to a factory, which uses conformity and standardization instead of pushing for creativity and individuality

2025-09-11 03:21:50 UTC

Something that disappointed me was how entrenched the "standard" learning model is for students, despite having tons of evidence suggesting it doesn't serve well for many students. Many changes being made are highly superficial, like changing an assignment to be easier/due later rather than rethinking how we assess learning, how we group students, and how we define smartness. Ken Robinson makes it clear that we need to make more of a fundamental shift rather than superficial shifts, but it will be a big challenge in order to do so.

760684_1 — 2025-09-11 18:23:41 UTC

The main point of the video is that today’s school system is outdated because it was made for the past. It focuses too much on tests and conformity, which limits creativity, curiosity, and individuality. Instead, schools should encourage creativity, teamwork, and personal talents to prepare students for the world today - gursahib gill

760684_1 — 2025-09-11 18:31:40 UTC

One supporting point is that schools are run like factories, grouping kids by age instead of by their abilities or interests. This limits how well students can learn because not everyone learns the same way or at the same pace- gursahib gill

760684_1 — 2025-09-11 18:37:16 UTC

we start to believe there’s only one right answer. This really stood out to me because it takes away space for creativity and I can actually see it happening in the education system- gursahib gill

760684_1 — 2025-09-11 18:42:23 UTC

I think the most impactful change in the education system would be teaching students real life skills, like how to make money, build generational wealth, and manage finances, instead of only preparing them to get jobs. Schools should focus more on creativity, problem solving, and skills that actually help us succeed in life- gursahib gill

755645_1 — 2025-09-12 01:31:16 UTC

This video brings attention to the fact that the current school system is outdated, rooted in an industrial-era model that no longer aligns with the needs of 21st-century students. What was once considered valuable knowledge is now often irrelevant to the challenges and goals of the future. It highlights how the lack of change in the education system is killing the creative spark in students, leading to a real life societal recession. In order to incorporate present circumstances, the education system need to divert their attentions away from standardized tests, rigid rules and age-based learning, and instead, emphasize individuality, creativity, and critical thinking.

2025-09-12 14:20:37 UTC

the main point was how the education system is so old and needs to adapt to a new system

2025-09-12 14:33:56 UTC

schools are set up like factories, with bells, age groups, old textbooks,

2025-09-12 14:34:12 UTC

the ADHD fact was really interesting

2025-09-12 18:32:35 UTC

PRANJAL, The main idea of the video is that our current education system is outdated and doesn’t fit the needs of today’s world. It was designed during the Industrial Revolution and still treats students like products on an assembly line, rather than individuals with unique talents and ways of thinking.

2025-09-12 18:34:23 UTC

One point that really backs this up is how schools separate students by age, assuming that everyone learns the same way at the same time. Robinson says that this doesn’t make sense because people are different. Not just in how fast they learn, but in how they think creatively. He even talks about how schools often kill creativity by focusing too much on standardized testing and rigid structures. He also talk about how schools are bad for creative kids because it is too standardized on tests, and it relies on memory based brain function.

2025-09-12 18:35:21 UTC

Something that really surprised me was the part about ADHD. Robinson said that a lot of kids diagnosed with ADHD might just be bored or not engaged by the way school is taught. That hit me hard because I’ve seen classmates who are super smart but struggle in school just because they don’t fit the mold. It made me wonder how many people are being seen unfairly - when maybe the system itself is the problem.

2025-09-12 18:36:06 UTC

I think the most powerful change would be shifting the focus from standardization to personalization. If schools actually encouraged creativity and let students explore what they’re passionate about, I feel like more people would enjoy learning instead of just surviving it. Education should be about helping people grow, not just testing how well they can memorize stuff.

755645_1 — 2025-09-13 01:42:55 UTC

“We still educate children by batches, by age group.” .This shows how schools group students simply by how old they are (their “date of manufacture,” as the video says), rather than by their abilities, interests, or learning needs. That supports the idea that the system is outdated and too rigid.

755645_1 — 2025-09-13 16:18:13 UTC

What surprised me about the video was how the rise in students diagnosed with ADHD is connected to the outdated school system. Robinson suggests that many kids are labeled with ADHD not because something is wrong with them, but because schools are boring, rigid, and don’t support different ways of learning. Instead of changing the system, we often medicate the child.

982524 — 2025-09-13 20:45:48 UTC

The school system we have now is like an old factory. It killed their natural creativity, and it sorts children into “smart” and “not smart”. We should change the whole system and allow every child to learn in his or her own style

982524 — 2025-09-13 20:49:41 UTC

Sir Ken Robinson shows a study that 98% of five year old children are genius at divergent thinking, which means coming up with many ideas, yet only 10% still are at the age fifteen. This drop proves beyond the point, that normal school lessons squeeze creative thinking out of kids

982524 — 2025-09-13 20:53:28 UTC

I was surprised that more ADHD medicine is given by doctors in states in harder standardized tests. I Felt shock that we drug children so they will sit still for boring exams, it would be match better to make the lessons more interesting instead of giving them drugs

982524 — 2025-09-13 20:58:29 UTC

We should stop teaching every children the same lesson at the same age. Students should work within mixed age teams that use art, science, building and talking together. This change will allow the creativity to kept alive, lower stress and shows each children that talent matters

2025-09-14 05:06:35 UTC

A supporting point is how people cannot sit for half an hour without doing anything, which shows how short attention spans have become.

2025-09-14 05:07:35 UTC

I was surprised to learn that our generation struggles to retain information for long periods of time because it shows how much technology has changed the way we focus and learn.

2025-09-14 05:08:21 UTC

I think the most impactful change in education is how technology lets students access different learning resources. It helps because everyone learns in different ways, and now we can get extra support outside the classroom.

2025-09-14 05:09:05 UTC

talks about how to school system is old and out dated

755645_1 — 2025-09-14 23:41:55 UTC

One of the biggest changes that would help education is making it more focused on each student as an individual. Right now, schools often treat all students the same, even though everyone learns differently. Some students need more time, others need different ways to learn. If schools gave more choices and support based on each student’s needs and strengths, more kids would do better and enjoy learning more.

2025-09-15 01:49:58 UTC

The main point of the video is to point out that the education system has not really progressed a great improvement in its way of educating generations, instead it still follows the outdated "industrial paradigm". Robinson supports creating new school systems that rely on collaboration, personalized learning experiences, and creativity rather than remaining in the constant reforming process which builds on an "outdated system”.

2025-09-15 01:54:10 UTC

A supportive argument would be how Robinson described the unsuccessful education systems as a factory-like system where it relies on specific signals like ringing bells to change activities and has separate facilities. It also relies on specific time-blocks that indicate when students are expected to do tasks overlooking the fact that some function better in the evening than mornings and the opposite is true. Moreover, students are put together based on age groups and he refers to that as their "date of manufacture". He also mentions that this model prevents students from standing out in what they're good at just because of the age-classification barrier.

2025-09-15 01:55:18 UTC

It's interesting how in the video Robinson stresses that there should be a broader definition of intelligence, directly connecting it with divergent thinking, an essential capacity for creativity. It brings up the meaning that there's no wrong answer but there could be multiple possible answers and interpretations of a question. This makes me wonder how students will get impacted from such an approach towards modern learning, would their creativity spark?

2025-09-15 01:57:30 UTC

The most impactful change in education must be taking the initiative and effort to wake students up and show them how they can all be unique in their own way and in anything. This can be by allowing students to dive deeper in the topics that they enjoy, giving them a unique experience throughout their learning journey. This way, students will automatically focus, get engaged, gain knowledge and experience, value what they’re learning, and get motivated. When students see success, they would never feel hopeless.

2025-09-16 17:47:45 UTC

i think the main point is education is that education isnt changing and is getting out dated

2025-09-16 17:49:52 UTC

most people hate school and think its a waste of time and money and people have changed while school hasn't
