//Wouldn't it be interesting to have Bill Gates, Al Gore, Jane Goodall, or even Bono of U2 come and speak to your class? You're in luck: with TED online videos, it's possible to hear the latest thoughts of the world's most creative and cutting edge thinkers and doers! Formed in 1984, this organization has sponsored talks on the broad subjects of Technology, Entertainment, and Design (or TED) and they're all online for you to view.//

//During each class, students will view a video, engage in class discussion, and share their ideas via a threaded online discussion. Potential topics include global warming, video games, world poverty, new inventions, music, comedy, the arts, and the search for extraterrestrial life. So come grow your mind and expand your understanding of what is and what could be...these truly are "ideas worth spreading"!//
