myClass Advanced 17 July 2019 - School Days

Here are the links I promised you from the class last night: 

The On Being project is something I thought several of you might be interested in after hearing your conversations last night. My favourite part of the website is the weekly 'On Being' podcast - they are often very interesting. Links to the website and the podcast here:

The three schools which you read about are linked here:

https://www.brockwood.org.uk/ 
https://gordonstoun.org.uk/  

I mentioned that Jiddu Krishnamurti was a fascinating character. The Krishnamurti official website is here: https://jkrishnamurti.org/ 

There is an interesting, and less hagiographic, article about Krishnamurti here: https://tricycle.org/magazine/the-shadow-side-krishnamurti/ 

We watched the first five minutes of Ken Robinson's TED talk, Do Schools Kill Creativity? You can watch the whole talk on TED or YouTube. If you need subtitles, go to TED!

That's a lot of links! Hope you find some of them interesting! :)
