I had came across with Ken Robinson’s speech on TED | Talks for TED Conference 2006. It was one of those I’m lost, what should I do afternoons. Every word, every sentence that he said has penetrated to my heart and soon enough my heart just couldn’t help it and started to scream: “I told you several times! You are a teacher; please stop going against your fate, your true calling!” Though the epiphany has yet to come only after I have read his book – The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes...more

Shelves: nonfiction

The author defines "The Element" as the thing you are both passionate about doing and good at doing. He offers some basic ideas on ways to find the element for yourself, drawing on examples as illustrations. On the whole, I prefered Marcus Buckingham's "THe One Thing You Need to Know."

One idea from the book did stand out. In talking about standards for educatuion, Robinson offers an analogy to standards for restaurants. Fast food restaurants have very rigorous standards which get applied to the...more

Shelves: non-fiction

There were good parts and not-so-good parts about this book.

The bad:
While Robinson makes some excellent points about how our current education system is killing creativity in our students (teaching to the test and ONLY the test, for example), he doesn't give any really feasible options for solving education's current issues in a cost-effective manner. Personalizing education, while students may benefit greatly from it, would be a costly endeavor to begin, and while enforcement of conformity is...more

Robinson cites numerous tales of people who have found, nurtured and made a success of their particular talents (Paul McCartney, Richard Branson etc); but this isn't just about 'famous' people, it is about how individuals can and should find and nurture their own talents, at whatever age and stage in their life they may be. It could be a hobby, a profession, a dream. It is inspirational in its own right.

A major part of the book is about the 'role of others' in helping the individual find 'the element' whether it be a mentor, parent, friend and/or people/institutions in the wider community. He recognises that the school system is increasingly uncreative and unimaginative in perpetuating a conformist, sterile, by rote system rather than one which encourages individualism and imagination. He believes education should be less systemic and micro managed, and more intuitive and guided by the teacher. He also touches on society as being structured often to quell creative urges. He cites people needing to 'leave' structures and communities that they know as the drive to be 'in their element' is so strong. He also, reasonably, recognises that many people do not have the opportunity in their lives to readily find and nurture their element- bills and mortgages to pay, kids to feed etc, and that success is measured by being able to provide and prosper materially; rather than find inner satisfaction. He is hopeful on all this though, providing many examples of people who have taken their time finding and nurturing their element (whether it be writing, art, singing, building, teaching, being a banker- yes, possible, in theory ;-)) later on in life or in conjunction with the other competing elements going on within it, such as parenthood, paying jobs and the general frantic business of living.

He finishes with a very interesting interpretation of how the need for human creativity and/or 'elementalism' is intertwined with the world at large. He recognises two forms of climate change, one focuses on physical resources and the second on human resources. He argues powerfully that not only are we facing a global catastophe physically, but are also illequiping our fast growing populations to deal with it. He stresses interconnectedness and an organic approach, rather than one which, mistakenly, assumes continued human dominance over nature and the world at large. He is therefore adhering to Lovelocks 'Gaia' hypothesis, approaching first from the dysfunctionalism of humanity rather than nature in crisis. Very clever and very compelling.

My only criticism of this book is that it didn't really explore how the individual is meant to 'find' their element, and also that the 'bigger picture' analysis on how all this relates to climate change and imminent global Armageddon was in the 'Afterword'. He is obviously a very wise man who has a lot to say. And maybe tried to say too many disperate things in a single book in the wrong order. Saying that, he's created more than a little food for 'creative' thought here. I also note that a sequel to the book, about how the individual does 'find' their element is due to be published soon. A fascinating read. Recommended.

Robinson's thesis is quite simple: when we humans live, work and play in a space in which our natural talents and our spontaneous passions meet, we are happier, healthier and more fulfilled beings.

We need not get academic or obscure to highlight just how far public education has strayed from creating an environment where this passions/talents sweet spot is the goal. Just earlier this month, we watched in dismay dozens of teachers and administrators from the Atlanta public schools were to face arrest and possibly severe prison time for their involvement in a cheating scandal on Georgia's standardized test. I can tell you they knew exactly what was on the line when the undertook those behaviors. In the weeks before a standardized test we teachers are pounded with legalese and warnings about consequences for "irregularities." So what would motivate a group of elementary teachers and administrators to risk it all? The pressure to raise test scores by any means necessary. The fact that not a single child benefited from the whole operation only highlights the confused state of the incentive system.

At NuMinds, both Ben and Justin are products of public education and we are invested in it wholeheartedly. There are geniuses and brilliant innovators and I daresay even saints among the ranks of those educating and inspiring our kids. And we do sense a shift in the national mood. Even Texas, our home state, is looking to reduce the number and duration of standardized tests, especially at the elementary level.

This is a big ship with a lot of momentum built up (note to self: resist Titanic metaphor here... you can do it!) however, while we work day in and day out from the inside to do right by our students, NuMinds is our inspired mission, our bold project of the heart, to contribute to future generations of gifted students and unshackled pathway to what Robinson has called the element.

Taking inspiration from Robinson, NuMinds has developed a PKT needs analysis system that assesses, through a combination of written questions and personal interviews with both the student and parent, the state of a student's Passions, Knowledge and Talents in order to customize a learning enrichment path that might most quickly lead a student to a state of fulfillment, success and even happiness.

We don't hold the panacea that might effortlessly turn around a monolithic cruiseliner headed toward an iceberg (almost there...), but the resonance of Sir Ken Robinson's bold manifesto for The Element inspires us in our own unique model for acknowledging and nurturing each student's passions, knowledge and talents.Ken Robinson

The best part of the book are real life examples of successful people (famous and not so famous) that found personal and usually financial success by being true to their passions. Often these were folks that didn't do well in school, weren't good at conforming or were just bored at school and didn't try. Some of these examples got a...more

I first discovered Ken Robinson via Ted Talks and was absolutely captivated by his speech, primarily because he spoke to something I've always believed was true but had never heard articulated so well. The specific chord that resonated for me was that schools are failing our students because of the hierarchy established in school subjects and how schools are only assessing certain types of intelligence. So many children are being told they're not bright or talented if their interests and gifts fall outside the realm of the valued subjects of math, science, or English.

In The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything, Ken Robinson elaborates on the themes touched on in the TED Talks. In many ways it can be viewed as a Self-Help book, one that aims at helping the reader find and explore their passions. However, Ken Robinson hits readers with good level of psychological and educational research, along with some great philosophy, which makes this book feel more grounded in truth than some typical self-help fluff. The book also includes great case studies of people who have found "The Element", celebrity and non-celebrity alike, and what their journey has been like. These case studies really give some practical life application for the principles Robinson talks about.

In helping readers find the calling for their lives, he asks not "How creative are you?" but rather, "How are you creative?" That question may be my favorite part of the book. He challenges the reader to do some digging and some turning inward to determine what sort of activities, passions, pursuits they really connect with and encourages the pursuit of those things inside or outside of a career. He argues quite well that we are all talented and creative in our own way.

I recently heard a commencement speech by Steve Jobs where he said the only way to do great work is to love the work you're doing. That's really at the heart of Robinson's book and I enjoyed every minute of it.(less)

Written in great prose, enjoyable to read it's something that sets me thinking as a teacher.

,,The most powerful method of improving education is to invest in the improvement of teaching and the status of great teachers. There isn't a great school anywhere that doesn't have great teachers working in it. But there are plenty of poor schools with shelves of curriculum standards and reams of standardized tests." (p. 138) Reading this sentence it really struck a chord. Becoming a teacher wasn't my first calling in my career, but I have grown to firmly believe that good teachers are curious themselves, permanently hungry to learn, pleasantly surprised to change perspectives and happily amazed by the talent the meet in their students. And great teachers drive their pupils on to achieve things they never thought possible. I am not there yet, I have to admit. But I rather leave than become one of the teachers I've met when I was still training to become a teacher: ,,You know the great thing about working in education, are the long holidays." If you don't want to teach, get out of the schools.

In education it should be about the students and the teachers and all the other stuff should be only there to serve that purpose and not become an obstacle. And education is about more than making a whole nation of young people accountants - the financial crisis has taught us that no real good comes of that - it's about challenging people to reach out and have a true enjoyment of life.

Robinson makes his case for what should count in education with a strong argument. Some of the people we consider great contributors to our culture never did well at school, because it didn't speak to them. So just focussing on making our pupils and students to meet standardized tests would be to rob the world of the next generation Paul McCartney, Richard Branson and Matt Groening. And let's be honest, wouldn't that be a horribly boring and cold world?
