Divergent thinking the victim of Standardized Education

This video opened my mind in many ways, for instance I always thought that something was wrong on the educational system, since not all learn in the same way and at the same time. Our educational system is outdated, and the system in which our society is developed as well, everything points in job competition, who is qualified to bear this struggle.Who has more power, more money, or better status?

I can not figure out how many brilliant minds have been lost by this system: poorly planned, under standards that respond to the demands of the last century and under the consumerism System.


Now we appear to be transitioning toward another economic model. As  many politicians said : "We need to educate our children for the global economy."he global economy is a slave economy. It has little use for anyone who can think, reason or feel. Our economy has stalled because adults do not have enough imagination to visualize new ways way to solve old problems as the video said.

We've been taught to believe that time spent in the school, hearing arbitrary information into our brains and taking  tests constitutes learning, but it is not.
I think children need resources which helps to grow theirs enthusiasm,  spirit,  questions, and only then  theyf will be happy adults in the future. It caught my attention divergent or lateral thinking,t his kind of thinking can give multiple solutions to the same problem. Our system do not help develop,and  it is a big problem, because in that time when it was created, to the great leaders felt that it was not convenient for them.We really need a change! and very deep!
