4/4/2013 School and creativity

In this class the main thing we have done is watching a video talking about how does school destroy the creativity of the students. Generally the guy in video said that there are some students that are very good  in certain subjects, but they are not in other subjects and therefore they are forced to repeat the whole year if they fail any subject that they don't like.

The main argument in the discussion was, why do students have to study things they don't  like? why do schools disappoint the students if they are already creative in a certain specialization? why do schools force students to study things that they do not want?

We disscussed this issue in the class.Moreover we did exchange ideas and different opinions. The majority of us agreed with the video, whereas few of us said that you have to have at least a little knowledge about everything, thus disagreed.

I personally agree with the video. Moreover the system that I used to study with in school was very comfortable. As of high school I only used to study engineering and not anything else not related with engineering, and that was somehow useful when I entered the university.
