Always Prepped Grabs $650K From True Ventures, Former Blackboard EVP To Launch A Mint.com For Education

In what is the most-watched TED Talk to date, Sir Ken Robinson makes perhaps the most convincing case for why the educational system in the U.S. needs to be torn down and rebuilt: It stifles creativity. Given the current state of affairs, making creativity the linchpin of a new school system does sound almost radical. Sadly. Be that as it may, Robinson is far from being alone in his belief that the current system revolves around inflexible curricula and churning out standardized test-taking drones, rather than free-thinking individuals. It's for this reason that personalized learning has become one of the hottest topics in education and is often cited as the key to re-humanizing education.
