RSA Animate on Changing Education Paradigms

This is the link to a brilliant animate created for a speech given by Sir Ken Robinson at the RSA in London. He explains the driving forces behind education and looks at how diagnosing ADHD in children, followed by the over prescription of Ritalin, is having a negative effect on school age children. He also emphasises the importance of collaborative working. Enjoy!
