LIFE Pick of the Web: Teaching with TED |

|
Learning is For Everyone, Inc. is pleased to recommend the following website:
TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from those three worlds. Since then its scope has become ever broader. TEDTalks began as a simple attempt to share what happens at TED with the world.
Under the moniker “ideas worth spreading,” talks were released online. They rapidly attracted a global audience in the millions. Indeed, the reaction was so enthusiastic that the entire TED website has been reengineered around TEDTalks, with the goal of giving everyone on-demand access to the world’s most inspiring voices.
The intent of this project wiki is to address: How can the TED talks be used as springboards for further discourse, exploration, reflection, and action?
