The TED Ed Club is designed to support students in discovering, exploring and presenting their big ideas in the form of short TED style talks, under the supervision of the TED Ed Club Facilitator and the Club Leader.
Along the way, Club Members will become experts in:
-
Identifying the elements of a great idea
-
Researching, developing and presenting an idea
-
Creating visuals to tell a compelling story
-
Using best practices for camera, lighting and sound.
By the end of the Club cycle, each Club Member will have a filmed TED-Ed Club talk, and may be featured on TED-Ed social media outlets, ed.ted.com, the TED-Ed Clubs YouTube channel, or possibly even the TED stage!
TED Ed aims :
-
To stimulate and celebrate the creative ideas of students everywhere
-
To connect students from different backgrounds, cultures and countries around the world
-
To provide an online platform dedicated to celebrating student ideas
-
To support students in developing presentation and public speaking skills, so that their ideas can be more easily seen, understood and shared
-
To make an idea — developed and presented by a student — a valuable reference point in a resume, college application or job interview
-
To work with a generation of problem solvers, critical thinkers and innovators to make the world a better place.
