			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 style="text-align: center;">How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything</h2>
<p style="text-align: left;">I finished reading this fabulous book by Sir Ken Robinson this evening. You can find it on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Element-Finding-Passion-Changes-Everything/dp/0670020478" target="_blank">Amazon</a>. There are some good take-aways for me. The main idea really supports my ideology that creativity is so important to the learning process and that the current system we have in place tends to squash this by the time we reach the end of elementary school. Unengaged students have no connection to their learning. I like the examples Ken gives of schools systems that are working. I am looking forward to hearing him speak to the Nebraska ESU PDO in November. Check out this <a href="http://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity.html" target="_blank">great video</a> on TED Talks in which Ken says schools kill creativity.</p>
