This highlights the tragic mistakes many of us have been making in early childhood education for the past couple of decades. I wish every teacher, educator, administrator and parent could see this and understand what it means.
We're adding some TEDTalks on the weekends that students and teachers have identified as awesome/useful. TTEDEucation channel is part of the CZcams For Schools program, so these Talks (which might otherwise have be blocked in schools) are more accessible. Each Talk also comes with a new and customizable Lesson on the TED-Ed website. We'll still be posting at least 4 new educator + animator Lessons every week. Enjoy!
Nine years ago. I've been out of the classroom for a couple of years but I can attest... every early childhood and elementary school teacher and administrator should watch this.
I'm not shure i'm following (my english isn't the best). But here goes: Just because you intend peace, dosn't mean it's not bull what you're saying (on purpose or not). Hard topics leads to debate. Your opinions will be challenged. I'm skeptic of nature, I'm gonna examine every statement and challenge it (mostly probably to find where I myself stand, and maybe having my own mind changed for the better and grow a bit). Anyway, he was answering something that wasn't a question, but a snarky reply
Wow... An amazing lecturer! She explained Euclidean spaces for more clearly and effectively through graphics, models and history to explain a concept my uni lecturer took an hour explaining. Just think if every mathematic, science and other complex concepts were taught this way! I do believe teaching this way is far more engaging and effective!
What I've learn: To make a long presentation; It is to make an idea in the form of "linking" things that seems not relevant, with everything. For example; Crochet (feminine hobbies.) Corals (marine/the sea)=Shape of Corals( hyperbolic geometry)= mathematician are puzzled with this for many years= We need to observe more around us= As a society we have this acknowledgement to our surroundings= what surrounds us?=The Environment= what's wrong with the environment?= Global Warming etc.
if children are educated properly they should be able to determine by the end of their time at school how to evaluate which assumption is the most probable. Science has more evidence and constructive argument in this case so it would most likely win the majority
I know what you mean. But the problem is that generally those sometimes positive moral values are accompanied by some really not so great and quite bad values too.
i think she is australian. thats how we say it - just like you guys probably say "hot" to rhyme with "caught". We don't. Hot is a short "o" sound and caught is a longer "or" sound.
I think you will find that each of the three major religions have higher numbers of participants than those who claim no religion at all, therefore they are accepted assumptions. If people are educated honestly in every major assumption then they will be able to choose the assumption that appears closest to the truth.
And the first guy (wanting videos on religion) doesn't want peace. He have commented before on tedED's videos, demanding explanations in angry tones, saying people are fools and what not. very positive and peaceful..
Morality doesn't come from religion. It comes from people (and so does religion, for that matter). We have plenty of access to those, more than our parents ever did.

Ah, I just wanted to have some fun :D I just don't seem to understand how people can say such things on the interne. But in real life, do they start cursing when seeing another person say something they don't like?
Crochet is done the same between men and women, but it’s the deeper meaning that she’s poking fun at. Women were not allowed to learn math, science, accounting, etc. a long time ago. They were deemed “too simple” for extravagant and difficult subjects, but it was fine for all men to learn them. Women were lucky if they were taught to read or write (probably from a rich family, too.) As such, “feminine handicraft” was actually a subject or trade that women learned. Young girls would actually be tutored in this art and would spend their days knitting, crocheting, or doing needlepoint. This was “all they could handle for their simple, hysterical minds.” It is brought up because the hyperbolic shapes confounded mathematicians (predominantly male, too) yet women had been making this shape in their handiwork for decades. Women were forbidden to study math, yet were literally creating mathematical shapes that men deemed impossible to exist on earth. The fact that a female mathematician discovered this is also quite amusing! Hehe
Generally religions can sometimes have positive moral values that can be good to live bye. If that answers your question. ....I had better brace my self... saying something positive about religion on the internet is considered blasphemous....
but for the positive values to be applied by people, the people have to "like" these positive values beforehand, so the religion is not adding anything to that. Yes some religious people are generous and try to help other people where they can. But so do atheists, so there is no real correlation between religion and positive values. But religions also have negative values (I'm sure you can think of some yourself), which are embraced by being divine, and THAT is definitely a bad influence.
In a world where truth is so remote that we must really entirely on the best assumptions, is it not best that every accepted assumption is taught? Worldbosspf1 may have chosen the wrong forum to suggest this but discounting religion from education is equally foolish.
And which religion might that just be? One that threatens with eternal torture perhaps? Why teach personal subjective superstition when you can teach the observable truth, teach people to think for them selves. Teach people that you certainly don't need religion to be good or moral
Being raised in the culture of a religion is not the same thing. You are making the false assumption that one of the major religions holds the truth, that one of the minor ones or Atheism does not. I would rather my tax dollars not be wasted on such nonsense and kids stick with science, history, language and mathematics.
Mmmmmm. So pro, you are talking about CoD right? Yeah, I don't believe that shit for 1 second. I have seen over 8 people right that with different youtube account names. I doubt all of you are 'the top sniper'.
A) He just finished explaining that this is for schools. They wouldn't be allowed to show it if they started preaching religions. B) Religion != Morals. There are countless studies showing that. Also, I see nothing any less moral about the information age than any of the prior. Every generation thinks the next is immoral. If you want them teaching morals though, maybe something on Locke or other Renaissance philosophers.
This is one of the most beautiful things that I've seen mathematically.
it's amazing how in mathematics after the problem is solved it seems so simple and obvious.

Amazing - thank you. One day a real story - HER STORY
That play tank idea sounds like it would be a great way too come to grips with an idea, or grasp a concept.
I don't understand why some people dislike these videos...

A coral reef killed my father, don't expect me to feel any pity for them, this is a vendetta!

Initial thought this is stupid around 10:00 holy crap this is ground breaking...
Amasing!

Brilliant!
🪢calculus and crocheting are 2 of my favorite things. Fibonacci is up there, also.
And the first guy (wanting videos on religion) doesn't want peace. He have commented before on tedED's videos, demanding explanations in angry tones, saying people are fools and what not. very positive and peaceful..
To have written words intending peace and positivity only to have them twisted into calls for immorality must be a fate most unkind.
Amazing
*TEDEducation not TTEDEucation
O F*ck it was a typo

properly*?
She looks like Steve Jobs)0))
Ah, I just wanted to have some fun :D I just don't seem to understand how people can say such things on the interne. But in real life, do they start cursing when seeing another person say something they don't like?
Why?
I know.. Just can't help myself though ;) It just strikes a nerve or something
That's a funny one.
I believe she was being a bit tongue-in-cheek, what with her audience and all. Just a guess though.
What's "feminine handicraft"?
Is crochet done differently by men and women?
Crochet is done the same between men and women, but it’s the deeper meaning that she’s poking fun at. Women were not allowed to learn math, science, accounting, etc. a long time ago. They were deemed “too simple” for extravagant and difficult subjects, but it was fine for all men to learn them.

Women were forbidden to study math, yet were literally creating mathematical shapes that men deemed impossible to exist on earth. The fact that a female mathematician discovered this is also quite amusing! Hehe
and wich religion?
i think we (the young people) know what we are doing
and the ones who dosen't arent watching this viedeos^^
(soory for bad english)
No I'm talking about the authors of religious texts
Her microphone is falling off
God you actually thought I was serious
Maybe he stutters?
hee hee. i bet you are getting all sorts of hate for that one.
you're cool.
This channel is about education, religion is quite the opposite of that.
Generally religions can sometimes have positive moral values that can be good to live bye. If that answers your question.
....I had better brace my self... saying something positive about religion on the internet is considered blasphemous....
Safe.
your*
Religion is not an accepted assumption. Teaching of religion in neurology and history has a place. To have kids inculcated by any sect is right out.
Amazing!! can you crochet a human brain?
but for the positive values to be applied by people, the people have to "like" these positive values beforehand, so the religion is not adding anything to that.
Yes some religious people are generous and try to help other people where they can. But so do atheists, so there is no real correlation between religion and positive values. But religions also have negative values (I'm sure you can think of some yourself), which are embraced by being divine, and THAT is definitely a bad influence.
This guy is obviously trolling. Every logical person knows that morals aren't derived from religion.
Obvious troll is obvious
In a world where truth is so remote that we must really entirely on the best assumptions, is it not best that every accepted assumption is taught? Worldbosspf1 may have chosen the wrong forum to suggest this but discounting religion from education is equally foolish.
Because ALL morals come from religion. What if they post videos of religions other than your own? Then you would be upset by their posts.
uh.. no: you're = you are = i was correct please go away
exactly people like you need to be educated about religion
PRAW-ject
T_T
As long as its YOUR religion, right?
am i the only one who is annoyed by the way she says project
I think you should do some religious video because I feel that the young people of today is lacking moral
And which religion might that just be? One that threatens with eternal torture perhaps? Why teach personal subjective superstition when you can teach the observable truth, teach people to think for them selves. Teach people that you certainly don't need religion to be good or moral
Being raised in the culture of a religion is not the same thing. You are making the false assumption that one of the major religions holds the truth, that one of the minor ones or Atheism does not. I would rather my tax dollars not be wasted on such nonsense and kids stick with science, history, language and mathematics.
ahahahahahahhahhahah
..if she says pro-ject one more time !!
Mmmmmm. So pro, you are talking about CoD right? Yeah, I don't believe that shit for 1 second. I have seen over 8 people right that with different youtube account names. I doubt all of you are 'the top sniper'.
She can't say project properly -_-
that the worst logic ever
what has religion to do with morals?
A) He just finished explaining that this is for schools. They wouldn't be allowed to show it if they started preaching religions.
B) Religion != Morals. There are countless studies showing that. Also, I see nothing any less moral about the information age than any of the prior. Every generation thinks the next is immoral.
If you want them teaching morals though, maybe something on Locke or other Renaissance philosophers.
why does this man talk about femininity?
math in creation means intelligent design (GOD)
