Magic Carpet Ride

How can we make education, teaching, and our work with children a "Magic Carpet Ride?" Please watch this clip to see if you can get some hints as to how we can transform the concept of teaching from being a worker on a factory production line (a better, more efficient, higher paying factory line doesn't do much to inspire me either) where specialization on a narrow, narrow piece of the human experience is moved to the teacher being an artist with a canvas and with limitless possibilities of bringing the whole range of human expression alive in the lives of the children and people with whom we interact.
