I was introduced to this site in another class I have taken through PSU and find it to be really powerful. TED stands for Technology Entertainment Design. This site goes beyond technologies for the classroom, and discusses real life technologies…some our students might be using in the future. This site contains a number of videos. The videos discuss a variety of topics, more than just technology. Two such videos that would be really thought provoking and/or great conversation pieces for a professional development day are found at the following links: http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/taylor_mali_what_teachers_make.html http://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity.html

This site is sponsored by SMART Technologies who produce the SMART Board. The site offers a variety of videos featuring SMART Board lessons and tutorials and you can even post your own videos to the site.
