Engineering TED Talks

First of all, we had our little baby! Her name is Greta. She's awesome, and we're proud of her. Here are a couple of pictures.


I plan on coming back to school this Wednesday if things continue to go well. 
For today, you will watch and profile a couple of TED Talks that have to do with Engineering and/or Design. There are a lot of good ones out there, so you should find a couple that interest you the most. FOR TWO TED talks, you will answer some questions in a portfolio entry.
Here are some of the TED talks you might choose to watch and summarize.

Write an entry in your STEM Portfolio. These questions are also on our STEM Portfolio Example.

In your entry, answer these questions for at least 2 videos: 
  • Which TED talk did you watch? 
  • How long was it? 
  • What was it about? 
  • What did it have to do with engineering? 
  • What did you learn from watching the video?
  • Is this an “idea worth spreading”? Why or why not?
