In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
Humans are tribal. All things being equal we will group up.
TELEthruVOXx and the desire to group up is even greater when things are not equal and bad ideas are forced upon them.
I got failed out of my last semester of Nursing Clinical because the instructor said she was outside the patient's room and did not hear me ask my patient's name and DOB even though I did. I even asked her to go into the room to ask the daughter of the patient who there the entire time; of course, my instructor refused. Couple of days past, another student went and complained to the Dean about another student in my group who had crushed the enteric coated med and administered it to the patient (she only had to file an incident report even though this is a serious safety issue). How is this fair? I am in the grievance process, but I am going to look for a lawyer soon if even the school fail to see this discrimination (I am a minority student and the other student who actually had a safety violation is white). Please any constructive advises are welcome. Thank You!
If you think not correctly identifying a parent to give meds to is not a safety issue you are mistaken. So don't be so mistaken as to compare what you did to what she did as being different. They are equally safety issues, remember the 4 rights of giving medication (or however many rights there are now, more keep being added). This school may have done you a wonderful favor. Nursing is an under paid thankless profession. You'd be better of becoming a welder, or anything other than a nurse. This is my opinion after thirty years of being underpaid in a field where it was claimed that I was responsible for things that were not my responsibility as well as them being out side my control. Still get your lawyer and sue the school for a refund of your tuition. You paid for them to teach you how to be a nurse and they failed.
Sorry to hear you were unfairly treated. I hope things work out for you.
Nice to hear from a social scientist. It would be interesting to hear what specific methods have been studied to improve educational outcomes.
Thank you for this❤❤❤
I grew up in Philadelphia public schools in the 90s and it was extremely diverse and I am so thankful everyday that I was brought up in that kind of environment! In middle school we talked about everything! Our teachers made everything a teachable moment! I never saw any bullying in my high school. But then I moved to the suburbs and saw all these rich white kids and their school had everything! But all they did was complain! They didn’t care about their education that much and didn’t know how lucky they had it. And it was here that I saw bullying. :(
I grew up in Gary Indiana and it was the opposite. Whites were singled out for violence on an almost daily basis, fortunately I was able to afford to send my children to private schools so as not to be exposed to various subcultures.
I agree we want to let everyone at school that are supposed to be there to learn. However, integration and multiculturalism means that we respect the the equal value of our different backgrounds. I think of school as like the United Nations. We all have a right and responsibility to be there.
UN is the must worlthess orgamization of the entire world
GO BIG BLUE!!!

Raquel Guimarães
a white girl.nothing amazing about that
Amazing. Very informative
It the way the history is being taught....lies my teacher told me...is why they choose the social order they mimic....
You were surprised not to see African-Americans or Latinos... in a SOUTH AFRICAN high school class?
You got a good point!! lol
Instead of researching failure, research success and the work and priorities one makes to get there.
Awesome comment. Right on point 👍
Want to move kids from the margins to the center? Figure out a way to raise their average IQs.
At 2:15 min no he didn't... No one said that.
At 3:20 min ALL pupils get signs on what is COOL and what is NOT. What supposedly makes you polular in you group and what is not.
Science and thinky-thinky doesn't make you cool, it doesn't make you popular.
But it is YOUR decision to make. Black pupils mostly decide to be cool and popular. Free will anybody?
How do you know anything going on were you there??? No so stop pretending that we live in a perfect world
For being so smart you dont get you're the exception and don't represent the rule of being able to go to these better schools.
It's impressive that you got so close to the point and still missed it. The fact that students can't get to the better schools *is the issue she's trying to fix.*
>socioligist
>does not know what popularity and sociology works.
Who gave her diploma?
Brown, and Columbia. How about you?
Carolyn Nersesian affirmative action.
Who taught you how to express a thought in English???
when this whole idiocy will be abandoned she will be out of the job.
LOVE THIS
What if people dont want to intergrate?
What if all you people with your own idea of how society "should" be just take a year off and let the rest of us make up our own minds.
Freedom of association.
