Community Review for TED-Ed
My Take
I love to use these and supplements to my science lessons. They are in cartoon format, so the kids are interested. They are short, around 5 minutes, and engaging.
How I Use It
They are short enough to easily include in a lesson, and there are short (5 question) reviews at the end. I really enjoy the further investigation, gives the students (and teacher) a chance to go farther with the information. An example, the Haber Process is an amazing addition to a chemistry lesson on Le Chat's Principle and equilibrium. The further investigation dealt with an ethical situation, did Haber deserve the Nobel Prize considering his background of helping Nazi warfare?

Interactive Content!
TED-Ed is a great way to take sometimes-boring subjects and transform them into engaging content by using videos. I have watched many ted talks throughout my educational career and always found them entertaining. This website is easy to navigate and you are able to filter to find the content you want. You can even filter by age, content type, subtitles, and more. The only downside is that there are some non-educational videos so it is easy to get distracted. I would recommend using it in classrooms if the teacher is displaying the video to the students so it avoids any distractions!
