When I speak to schools I get the 'That's a great idea, but it will never work with my kids'. My reply is, 'No, it won't work because you don't want to let it work.', I'm usually sent packaging at that point. I will from now on send this video as a warmer to open the conversation to be honest.

There is, sadly, a HUGE difference between learning and school. That difference is a HUGE problem. Kids innately love to learn things. It's adventurous! It's exciting! It's absolutely addictive! Kids don't find that in school. They find that in the real world and online. It's a terrifying thing to admit, but school as it is doesn't do what it's supposed to.

Students are being trained to pass standardised tests. Schools and tutors are assessed on how many students they get through tests with high grades. Everyone in education is being tested and evaluated against standardised criteria. This creates a risk averse environment.

I hate social media sometimes I'm usually anti-social I love to learn I hated school and If I didn't have friends I probably would've failed.

I like ALL of these ideas. How can I defend the positive changes when faced with standardized testing and curriculum requirements? Looking for professional words to use... I'm not the most eloquent. May I have permission to show your video?

This is very true but I think the public school system does well at creating one thing: obedient workers.

Very interesting. But a talk given by someone who either doesn't know or choses to ignore the many innovations that are already being made. Plenty of schools incorporate technology in a very interesting way, plenty don't put students in rows and plenty of students learn by experiential project work. To say that all students hate school totally undermines this guy's credibility. The hyperbole turns me right off what otherwise would be a useful and valid message.

Are you watching this on your phone or computer on your own volition? If so, then not necessarily. Also, consider that he is preaching to people stuck in traditional modes, therefore he is meeting them where they are hoping to change their stuckness. Just a thought.

Lectures are more effective with people who voluntarily go to them, i.e. his audience, and he isn’t actually trying to “teach” as “inform”. Lectures aren’t a bad thing just an ineffective teaching tool when the main mode of information transfer, especially at younger ages

There has consistently been a pattern of contradictions and hypothesis through his career as an educator. As a principal he talked at students not with them, and in so doing he missed opportunities to make learning experiences of problems with students who weren't "making the grade". He is not an effective communicator. I agree: FAIL!
