The Failure of Modern Schooling | A Conversation with Creativity Guru, Jon Pearson

Alpha Parent

Jon Pearson has been called an “imagination guru” and a “maestro of creativity.” He combines his skills as artist, writer and speaker to awaken, entertain and inform his audiences whether he’s speaking about humor techniques, visual thinking or storytelling. Jon’s core message is “Imagination will set you free.” He believes that along with courage and caring, creativity is what will save the world. And he believes that creativity starts with imagination and goes way beyond “the arts.”

Jon has worked with artists, writers, educators, businesspeople and life coaches—over one million people around the world. He is a Distinguished Leader of the Creative Education Foundation and has been a featured speaker for many state and national conferences. He received from the U.S. Patent Model Foundation’s national “Creativity Conference for Educators” the highest workshop ratings in its history. Jon has a lot to say about the system of modern schooling and how we can reimagine it to better serve the needs of students, teachers, and society.
