Documentary: La Educación Prohibida
I want to show this documentary to everyone alive! La Educación Prohidida means The Forbidden Education, the main point of this documental is to wake up people and to show them another side of education. They fight against the actual education system that hasn't evolved in 200 years. They point out that the student, or a learner as I would call it, must be active in his process of learning instead of being a passive instrument of an authority. So they interviewed many people that were facilitators in this new learning culture, and what they all had in common is that they were so passionate of teaching and of letting the learner evolve by himself. They all understood that every human has different skills, and that we are all free. However, they do have rubrics to accomplish the main objective. It's exactly what we are doing at MPC, we are free and responsible human beings who seek learning from everything and anything. With this documentary I realized that there are many schools with our system of learning, and I was really happy about it. Actually I was kind of angry when I understood that traditional system is killing every child's creativity and impetus to act. They are making them absorbing sponges. It's sad.The documental is long but it's worth every single minute of it. If we spread this and our believes I'm sure we can make a change in education. People will wake up.
