One of the benefits of working at Full Sail University is getting to sit-in on conversations with amazing folks like Apple’s Don Henderson (Senior Manager, Creative Expression). This past Thursday night (5/13/2010) he shared several videos about student creatives and entrepreneurs who weren’t waiting for graduation to begin their creative lives. While shortsighted bean-counters cancel arts programs and school continue to fail, Don is showing that tapping into student creativity is the direction to go and that we can’t let “testing” dictate curriculum. This video was created by one of six students that Don and Apple are promoting in their efforts to help improve education.
