Schools across the country are screening this film. My town, Chappaqua, has gone whole hog: they’ve screened it multiple times to both parents and faculty. The PTA has even moderated two discussion sessions for parents.

Will this result in any meaningful change? Are we just preaching to the choir?
This fun, eye opening You Tube presentation by Sir Ken Robinson about changing educational paradigms caught my attention. These are the big questions we need to ponder in a changing world.
