PLN21

In the video “Changing Education Paradigms” by Sir Ken Robinson it talks about how public education wants to change how they teach the students of the 21st Century. The video talks about how the way kids are learning are not motivating them. In fact, kids are less motivated in today’s world and they don’t have any motivation to go to college or they do not pay attention in class. this affects me because if teachers and public school systems are trying to figure out how to motivate children then what does that make us students today? Are they just using us to figure out how to help the next generation? Or do they just expect us to get motivated ourselves? Well I do not know if these are the intentions but as a student this means I have to work as hard as I can and get motivated to do well in school. This affects the world because kids need to find motivation in them selves and not seek help from anyone but them selves. Students need to realize education is the key to having a better and brighter future. So I ask you, do you expect to find motivation in yourself or expect someone to tell you what your motivation is?
