BRIO Education

I have found a series of virals which advertise the latest collection of BRIO railway toys, one of these virals is shown above. I feel they are great at showing the new toys in an imaginative form, creating a 'role play' world for children and parents alike. I could take such virals as inspiration for making a viral myself as part of my visual work.

Sir Ken Robinson - Changing Education Paradigms

This is the illustrated version of Sir Ken Robinson's Changing Education Paradigms Lecture, 2010. The video is long but demonstrates some key points which relate to creativity (or Divergent Thinking) within children and how this declines through Education. I have written key notes which can be seen in my research folder. I wanted to post the actual video so this can be viewed alongside.
