Ken Robinson is determined to help education, and I think Creative Schools: The Grassroots Revolution That's Transforming Education is his best effort yet. Robinson seeks out schools and teachers and methodologies that produce fabulous results and shares these schools and teachers and methodologies with us. You can't help but be motivated to join Robinson's revolution after reading this book, I think. ( )

This was very underwhelming. And frustrating.
I was better served by watching TED lectures.

It's like he tries to make conversation and keeps forgetting the audience is there.

FINAL VERDICT : SKIP ( )

Ken Robinson's Creative Schools offers a splendid and convincing vision for what training must move toward becoming. His intense suggestion to take action refers to superb cases where the instruction without bounds is occurring today. Try not to miss this imperative book!"— TONY WAGNER, writer of Creating Innovators and The Global Achievement Gap and Expert In Residence at Harvard University's Innovation Lab https://globalresearchessays.com/argumentative-essay ( )
