Watch one teacher’s introduction to his new blog, 2,000 Hours, in which he sets out to end misconceptions about teaching and log every hour he works in the next school year.

TED Talks Demystified for Teachers →

teamteachers:

The headline for this is a smidge misleading. This is actually an exceptional list of TED talks that have been broken down into disciplines. For example, there are categories such as World History, American History, Language Arts, Music, Biology, etc.

The list also includes the name of the presenter, the title of the session, the video length, and a link to the talk. An outstanding resource, and everything is all in one place. By my unofficial count there are over 70 videos on the list. More than enough for you to be able to find something useful.
