The world needs all kind of minds:

  • autism
  • tends to detail (little letters)
  • things are becoming to abstract
  • visual thinkers: graphic designers
  • Pattern thinkers: computer programmers
  • give specific task to autistic kids
  • smart geeky kids
  • the speaker talks really fast
  • She likes to see change in the real world

The last talk i tried to watch but my computer was having problems was Ken Robinson; school kills creativity. From what i saw it seems like it was going to entertaining and he seemed to have a sense of humor.
