I just came across this post and wanted to thank you for linking to many TEDTalks for educators! My favorite part of these talks is how relevant they are, even after years.

Great tool for educators!

Larry,

Have you visited Edge.org?

I still watch TED but think they indeed have lost some of their edge. But Edge never does and is a real “thinkers thinker” place. You’ll be impressed.

Thanks for pulling the ideas together Larry. I’m at that place in my life where I want to inspire my students to think bigger, live larger, as well as push myself to learn how to reach them in ways to which they can relate.

I love the TED talks as well. While not a teacher, I would encourage people to look at the IGNITE series too. Held around the world, many of them available on video, 5 minute talks, 20 power point slides. Really amazing what you can learn in 5 minutes with a thoughtful and efficient approach. http://ignite.oreilly.com/

I have listened to a number of TED related sites. I find the dramatized productions better than the single reader. NewFiction.com is one I use a lot.

Great resource, Larry. I think that for focus and length TED talks are ideal for teaching either language or subject matter. Thanks for putting this list together.
