Changing education paradigms

In this TED talk, Sir Ken Robinson argues that our current educational systems are still based on a industrial paradigm of education – education is increasingly standardised and about conformity, and kids, who are living in the most stimulating age in history, fail to see the point of going to school, which is about ‘finding the right answers to pass the tests’ rather than about stimulating divergent thinking.

One of our major solutions to the plague of distracted kids is to medicate them to get them through school, whereas what really needs to change is the system itself – we need a paradigm shift, rather than mere reform.

Magic the Gathering head designer Mark Rosewater shares twenty lessons learned over twenty years of designing one of the world's most popular collectible card games. 

Watch to learn lessons such as "Restrictions Breed Creativity", "Fighting Human Nature Is a Losing Battle" and "If Everyone Likes Your Game, But No One Loves It, It Will Fail". GDC talks cover a range of developmental topics including game design, programming, audio, visual arts, business management, production, online games, and much more.

'The third dimension of program management' written by Bart Roestenberg

Over the past few years, program and project management have become increasingly professional. There are a number of good books on the topic, and several leading institutes offer training in these areas. However, it strikes me that the focus of many of these books and training courses is on improving the manageability of programs and projects. Taken at face value, this is logical. We are all aware of the dreadful examples of programs and projects that have completely derailed and have run far behind schedule or failed to deliver at all. This is to be avoided at all costs!

Programs are initiated to bring about strategic change within an organization.
