A post I found interesting was from the 2cents worth blog. David Warlick writes this blog about teaching and learning in Web 2.0.
The post I found interesting, and subsequently commented on, is here: TedxLondon
I am in love with Ted Talks. They are so fascinating to watch. The world's most innovative people share their ideas. My first Ted Talk (and still my favorite) is The Birth of a Word, by Deb Roy.
In his post, David Warlick talks about how London's chapter of Ted had a conference on "The Educational Revolution". It seemed important to me that, according to walk the conference had focused on three things : 1.What's wrong? 2. What's right? 3. What's next?
When I hear people talk, it seems to focus on the wrong, or the negative. The positive and forward-thinking ideas are key for me-- Education should focus on the End, and then the means to achieve the goal.
TED talks is one of my favorite sites too. I wish there were more hours in the day just to listen to the great ideas presented there!

ReplyDeleteDr. Burgos, I completely agree! If only there was more time for TED talks and more Zumba, life would be perfect.
