I don't get it. The Queen is just granting people knighthood left and right. It's getting quite annoying actually. Even actors and such are getting knighted. Why can't she save it for someone who really deserves it. Like, if the world was about to be blown up, somebody saves it, and the Queen knights them, they'll be up there with Sir Sean Connery and Sir Elton John. I bring this up because I just watched a video on TED that was Sir Ken Robinson speaking about human creativity and how kids in schools get their creativity educated out of them. It was extremely interesting. It also made me laugh and I didn't think anyof these TED talks could. The ones that I have seen so far have been boring(no offense...).
Anyway, time to answer the questions. 1. I agree with Mr. Robinson on the fact that as one gets older, one starts losing creativity. We are taking so many more math classes than art and music classes. (I definitely prefer the arts!) 2. I think that schools could foster imagination by doing a few things. First, make art classes more of a requirement. At my school, we only need one art class to graduate. We should have more. Second, I believe that in english and art classes, we should have more opportunities to be creative. Maybe in an english class, we could be able to write creative fiction instead of tons of different research papers.
