They were 15 and 16 years-old at the time and ensconced in arguably one of the best international school in the world. Perhaps not surprisingly, we were barraged by friends, family and colleague who asked one simple question: Why?</span> </div> </div></div> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="galileo-ap-layout-editor" style="min-width: 100%;"> <tbody> <tr> <td class=" editor-col OneColumnMobile" width="100%" align="" valign="top"> <div class="gl-contains-text"> <table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td class="editor-text editor-text " align="left" valign="top" style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: #6F6E6E; text-align: left; display: block; word-wrap: break-word; line-height: 1.2; padding: 10px 20px;"> <div><table class="editor-image OneColumnMobile" style="mso-table-rspace: 5.75pt;" align="right" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td class="mobile-hidden" width="15" height="1" align="center" valign="top" style="height: 1px; line-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"> <img alt="" width="15" height="1" border="0" hspace="0" vspace="0" src="https://imgssl.constantcontact.com/letters/images/sys/S.gif" style="display: block; height: auto; max-width: 100%;"> </td> <td class="image-cell " align="center" valign="top" style="padding: 0px;"> <div class="publish-container"> <img alt="" class="" style="display: block; height: auto !important; max-width: 100% !important;" width="320" border="0" hspace="0" vspace="0" src="https://files.constantcontact.com/41ca3c44701/aa8e1b90-0155-4d5f-b9e4-f82f4479af9d.jpg"> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="mobile-hidden" width="5" height="5" align="center" valign="top" style="height: 1px; line-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"> <img alt="" width="5" height="1" border="0" hspace="0" vspace="0" src="https://imgssl.constantcontact.com/letters/images/sys/S.gif" style="display: block; height: auto; max-width: 100%;"> </td> <td class="mobile-hidden" height="5" align="center" valign="top" style="height: 5px; line-height: 1px; padding: 0px;"> <img alt="" width="1" height="5" border="0" hspace="0" vspace="0" src="https://imgssl.constantcontact.com/letters/images/sys/S.gif" style="display: block; height: auto; max-width: 100%;"> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> <div class="text-container galileo-ap-content-editor"><div> <div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;">Has Education Gone Capitalist?</span></div> <div><br></div> <div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">I&#x2019;ll come back and answer that question in a minute. But first, think about today&#x2019;s education system. It&#x2019;s like Capitalism. In fact, some would say, it&#x2019;s become Capitalism. Somewhere along the way, competition to get into the best Universities displaced education&#x2019;s original intent of creating valuable and integrity-based contributors to a greater society. The change isn&#x2019;t all bad. Competition has driven excellence within hundreds, if not thousands, of academic institutions. High Schools as feeders into Universities produce some extraordinary results across all disciplines. Parents want the best for their children, and in many if not most cases, this means achieving excellence. But in this era, what does &#x201c;achieving excellence&#x201d; actually mean?</span></div> <div><br></div> <div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Look around you. Worldwide there is growing evidence of anxiety, social-psychological disfunction, addiction, and burn-out among our teens. Depression is prevalent and stress levels are off the charts. &#x201c;Success&#x201d; is primarily, if not entirely determined by test scores and subsequent admission to the word&#x2019;s top ranked Universities. Parents &#x2013; and particularly those dyed in a competitive marketplace &#x2013; press for performance from their children. There are those that can take it, but many who can&#x2019;t.&#xa0;</span></div> <div><br></div> <div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: bold; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Or Is Education Killing Creativity?</span></div> <div><br></div> <div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Sir Ken Robinson asks &#x201c;Is Education Killing Creativity?&#x201d; I would ask: &#x201c;Are Parents the Original Slayers of Creativity?&#x201d; Has a global system of competitiveness corralled us into thinking that Education &#x2013; like Capitalism &#x2013; is subject to the same rules of &#x201c;eat or be eaten?&#x201d;&#xa0;</span></div> <div><br></div> <div> <span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">At the turn of the 20</span><sup style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 0; mso-text-raise: 30%;">th</sup><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">&#xa0;century when formal education systems were springing up to produce workers and managers needed to drive our Industrial complex, the method of classical educational instruction and measurements for performance made sense.

He&#x2019;s wrapping up his time in Bali and heading to a new school in the US, but his reflection on his time at this experimental school is valuable insight for anyone contemplating what the future of education might look like.</span> </div> <div><br></div> <div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">First the school. It oozes nature. Oriented in the heart of the island of Bali, the Green School is surrounded by jungle, rice paddies and a raging river. Everywhere there are wind, water and solar projects, a living food lab, permaculture bed, and a bamboo design center. On this particular day, the school&#x2019;s seniors are presenting their capstone projects to more than 400 attendees. One after the next, they stand before the audience and share their insights on everything from million dollar plastic processing plants to indigenous birthing techniques.&#xa0;</span></div> <div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">&#xa0;</span></div> <div> <span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">There&#x2019;s arguably no school like it in the world.

Glenn reminds us of a few key things:&#xa0;First, that sustainability applied to education is more than looking out for Mother Nature. Indeed, it&#x2019;s an entire way of thinking that brings to light the complexities of our world and attempts to break them down into addressable pieces. &#x201c;We need to teach our students to be systems thinkers,&#x201d; Glenn tells us, and that means equipping today&#x2019;s youth with something more than academic rigor. Equally important, says Glenn are creativity, kinesthetics and empathy. Without such sensibilities, everything looks like a lab experiment. And for real-world problems, operating in a vacuum is&#xa0;</span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: italic;">not</span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">&#xa0;an option.</span> </div> <div><br></div> <div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: bold; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Time to Rethink Holistic Education?</span></div> <div><br></div> <div> <span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">For our regular&#xa0;</span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-style: italic;">Inside Asia</span><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">&#xa0;listeners, this discussion might take you back to&#xa0;</span><a href="http://www.insideasiapodcast.com/education-overhaul/" target="_blank" style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(54, 97, 189); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: underline;">a recent episode</a><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">&#xa0;with&#xa0;</span><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/crystal-lim-lange/" target="_blank" style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(54, 97, 189); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: underline;">Crystal Lim-Lange</a><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">, a self-described &#x201c;future readiness&#x201d; expert who decries the way our current education system sets goals at odds with future needs. It&#x2019;s time to shift the curriculum away from a learning style geared to a former Industrial era and embrace a new pedagogy that places human creativity and problem-solving at the fore.</span> </div> <div><br></div> <div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">This is no easy task. Institutions are institutions for a reason. They take years to build up and decades to tear down. Nevertheless, here we are: the proverbial fork in the road. Will the world choose to stay the course on a tried and true system, or will we break from tradition and strike out into new experimental areas where risk, and yes, even failure, play an important if not essential role?</span></div> <div><br></div> <div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">How many times have we heard our entrepreneur celebrities say &#x201c;Fail fast. Fail often.&#x201d; It&#x2019;s the mantra for a new high-tech, high-energy age. Yet, apply this thinking to reform of our educational systems and you can feel the collective wincing of a billion parents. What? Sacrifice our child&#x2019;s future on a few hair-brain teaching ideas? Not a chance.</span></div> <div><br></div> <div><span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Which brings me back to the question my wife and I were asked seven years ago when we made the move to Bali and the Green School. It was a &#x201c;Hail Mary&#x201d; move, no doubt, and in the cold light of day I sometimes wonder if in making our decision we might have destroyed our daughters&#x2019; futures. I&#x2019;m pleased to say that today &#x2013; four and five years after graduating from the Green School - my two girls are thriving: Deeply thoughtful, intelligent, engaged and committed individuals. Both are in U.S. Universities (one just graduated), although as we discovered there are and might have been other paths to creating sustainable lives for themselves, and for others.&#xa0;</span></div> <div><br></div> <div> <span style="font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">So for you parents out there contemplating the pros and cons of our traditional education system, go listen to Sir Ken Robinson.
