Great link! I forwarded it to my principal.
Wow! So well done!
“In 1968, George Land gave 1,600 5-year-olds a creativity test used by NASA to select innovative engineers and scientists. He then re-tested the same children at ages 10 and 15. The test results were staggering! 98% at age 5 registered genius level creativity, 30% at 10 year and 12% at 15 years of age. The same test given to 280,000 adults placed their genius level creativity at only 2% .
In the video, (thanks Michele and Ben), Sir Ken cites George Land’s incredible (and incredibly ignored) study of how creativity is schooled out of us. Apparently there’s a book about it. Given that today’s kids are inheriting all the problems, i.e. environmental, economic, etc, that we’re making for them, one would think Creativity would be the #1 priority in education. Yet one can barely even find much on the net about George Land‘s creativity study.
