Dead Poets Society: 4.

Why Mr. Keating's teaching style "unorthodox"?

Mr Keating wanted to change the student's lifes by poetry. He tried to make different the routine of a literature class just deepening in what the author wanted to transmit. However sometimes the teacher seemed to ignore that he was teaching how to live "Carpe Diem", how to introduce poetry in their lifes in a conservative school. It could be unorthodox because he pretended them not to learn literature just studying, he wanted them to get the whole point to live from poetry. He wanted to educate in ideas, how to be a good person, how to see the life in a different point of view.He wanted them to show the men with theirs own ideas that they had inside. He wanted to educate in how to be a good person, how to live seizing the day. Unfortunately, the way of learning in Welton Academy was just teaching that poets wrote poetry, not the way the saw,taught, tasted and lived their lifes.










HE WANTED THEM TO MAKE THEIR LIFES EXTRAORDINARY.
