Ted+Talk+Assignment

Your assignment, worth 100 points, is to find, post, summarize, and come up with discussion/comprehension questions for 5 ted talks. You may not choose any of the same talks as each other! Please only use highly relevant and useful talks. If it bores you or is only vaguely relevant, then it doesn't work for this assignment. This will take some real time to do, I suggest going through the syllabus carefully and searching within the ted talk site for key terms in order to find relevance. You may only pick one talk per the 15 topics that we covered this year.

I suggest downloading the Ted Talk app for easy viewing. It is free.

The talks that you select must relate directly to one of the issues covered in the scope of this psychology class. Those 15 topics are in the syllabus of our class: Syllabus for in-depth details and relevant terms. History and Approaches Research Methods Brain Sensation and Perception Consciousness Learning Cognition Motivation and Emotion Development Sex Roles Personality Testing Abnormal Treatment Social Psych You will post your choices in the comment section. title your post the title of the Ted talk to make it super clear.

Steps to this assignment 1. title your post the same title as the ted talk page uses. 2. copy and paste a link to the talk 3. write your own summary of the talk. Include exactly how this talk relates to the topic we have covered this year. 4. Create 5 open-ended and thought provoking AP psych level questions that will stimulate discussion and show that the students have watched the talk.

Then repeat it 4 more times.
