Creativity-Where does it belong in education?

I am so excited to have my new website and blog up and running. This blog is for anyone interested in conversations about literacy, language, and music. I will be posting articles and links to interesting videos and websites. If you have questions, suggestions, resources, or links, please share them with the SEE (Singing English Education) community of learners and post them on this blog site.

To start the sharing, here is an interesting video about creativity in education. It's 20 minutes long, so set some time aside to watch it. Write in and let us know what you think about it. Do you think the arts are as important as math?

I look forward to some good discussion around this video!

This is a great presentation to view. I think all educators should make a point of viewing it. In my opinion, creativity is not encouraged in our present school system.
