And I say this not just because TED-Ed was able to capture and amplify my voice and thereby help me to spark the curiosity of learners around the world.
My love for all things TED also has to do with the fact that I want to bring to my students the TED-Ed Lessons of others. There's real quality there.
I also want to (and in fact do) bring to my students various TED-Talks. A couple of my favorites:
- Your Kids Might Live on Mars Some Day: Here's How They Will Survive
- Everyone Around You Has a Story the World Needs to Hear
And I want to bring to my students an opportunity to deliver a TED-Talk like presentation, hence the steps I took this past year to create a TED-Ed Club on the San Marino High School campus.
To summarize, I think that what TED has to offer not only has helped me to become a better teacher but it has also helped my students to become better prepared for college, career, and civic life.
