Do schools Kill Creativity?-Nishant Joshi (PGP30026)

Children are inherently creative!

They are also the key to our future

We can’t predict the next 5 years how do we

plan to educate for the next 50 ?!

take a chance or risk and

creativity stems from

this risk taking nature

You won’t take a

risk if you are

afraid of making a

mistake

Education systems stigmatize mistakes till we stop even trying to take a chance

We don’t just grow

out of our

creativity…we are

Educated out of

Creativity!...

Industrialism

The purpose of education was to create employees and then there were very few jobs

only come from

interaction of

various forms of

intelligence

For any kind of sustained survival, a critical

reexamination of our educational system is absolutely

critical
