We had to watch this TED talk video and record our thoughts about. in

 This child prodigy named Adora Svitak. Talking about how kids are not  regarded by adults as being able to posses good ideas. However she talks how major problems in the world are directly attributable to adults. How it would be a good idea for adults to attach themselves to the idealism that kids posses rather than being wrapped up in cynicism. She also discussed how kids should be able to actively contribute to the learning process. I agree with her that adults should be able to be more open to idealistic concepts rather than pursuing things that seem pragmatic but have adverse affects in the longterm. I agree with her that kids should be more  involved in shaping the course of the learning process because know one knows better than the kids themselves. This would lead to a more favorable learning environment.
