AOW Post

I personally think the article of the week for week 8 caught my attention and made me think the most. Not only because is was a video so it was more entertaining but also because it proved a point that I have agreed with for a long time. It was about how school kills creativity and I couldn't agree more with that statement. As he said and I quote "when we are kids not being scared to be wrong is but causes us to make things up" So in general he is saying that if we look at things without being afraid to be wrong that we can see them in a entirely different light. But because of the way schools work we are taught the incorrect is utter failure. And that's not always the case sometimes when we are wrong about one thing we are actually learning something else that isn't bad. But because of how schools teach that there is only one right answer. If they continue to do this then they will kill all hope of invention and innovation. From reading the articles of the week I have learned a ton about the world outside of the good old USA and I also learned that you can't just be close minded
