[SNEAK PREVIEW] Chatting with Sir Ken Robinson
Last week I presented at the Future Schools event in Melbourne.
As well as speaking across the program, I also facilitated a panel discussion with former Templestowe College principal, Peter Hutton; the CEO of AITSL, Lisa Rodgers and creativity expert and New York Times best selling author, Sir Ken Robinson.
After the event I sat down with Sir Ken for an interview that will feature in next week’s TER Podcast, but until then, here is a sneak preview of what to expect.

**Sigh** Still those that argue the opposite …

Hi John,
There always have been, and always will be – I suspect – those with opposing views. And for what it’s worth I welcome that. I regularly read Greg’s (considering you linked to his blog post specifically) articles and whilst I disagree with him – as I know he would with me – on various issues, I find his writing challenges me to think. I deliberately seek out opposing views, not so I can construct a counter argument, but rather to gain an understanding of where people are at. Something I’m not sure you get if *everyone* agrees *all* the time.
So no need to *sigh* imho – Thanks for taking the time to comment.

Good point. I don’t mind opposing opinions either, and Greg’s writings are generally a good challenge. I guess my sighing comes from when people dismiss things entirely – as Ken himself points out in his interview with you, it’s ironic when people attack your ideas for not having academic rigour, when their attacks themselves lack academic rigour!!
Indeed… Alanis Morrisette would have a field day 🙂
