Another TEDx talk - The purpose of education
Claire Boonstra
Docent Kort Beroepsonderwijs, Onderzoeker, Spreker, Auteur en Oprichter Operation Education
I always appreciate the opportunity of doing a TEDx talk. It forces me to get my thinking down to a nice 18 minute performance, suitable for a large audience and designed to last 'forever'. The fact that it is recorded and published on the TEDx channels further increases the pressure to make something really nice out of it. So I'm always a bit more nervous for these but I think it went well again and the reactions were good.
In this talk, I shared why it is so important to formulate an answer to the most important question of all, and I'm also sharing my own answers - to feed the discussion.
The video is not published yet (I'll include it when it's online), but if you want to read what I (more or less) said, you can do so here: https://www.claireboonstra.com/the-purpose-of-education/

9 年What I always say in my talks is that: We are still running 19th education system in the 21st Century for a generation of children and young people that already wish they live in the 22nd Century. My 11 year old son and his large world wide network of creative and business development peers are perfect examples of how the education system is too slow in meeting the demand for fast, flexible and complex learning and development of children and young people. Very worrying! I look forward to seeing the video :)
