Discussion Four: Educational Software
TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) is a nonpartisan nonprofit dedicated to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks of 18 minutes or less.
Watch a TED Talk given by Sal Khan, the founder of Khan Academy, entitled Let’s Teach for Mastery – not Test Scores (Links to an external site.). Then briefly share your thoughts about Khan’s presentation, referring to specific comments that you find interesting (i.e., “right mindset muscles”, “mastery-based learning”, and “inverting the pyramid”), along with how implementing technology may enable an educator to address these elements of learning within the classroom.
Once your post has been submitted, you will then have access to view others’ posts and replies. You are to reply to at least one other student’s posts using tasteful, thoughtful, and sufficient scholastic statements (minimum of two to three sentences).
Optional viewing: Sal Khan’s first TED Talk is about how Khan Academy started entitled Let’s Use Video to Reinvent Education (Links to an external site.).
