STEP 1: Visit the TED Talks website and search for a talk on the subject matter of adolescence (use the Search talks with keywords adolescence, teenager, or adolescent). Watch one of the talks that interests you, as long as it is a minimum of 6 minutes in length. At the top of your response, include the title of the TED Talk, the name of the presenter, when it was filmed, along with a link to the video.

STEP 2: In an essay of between 200-400 words, respond to the following:

  • Give a summary of the TED talk, emphasizing the speaker’s main points
  • What did you find most interesting about the talk, and what will you most likely remember from the talk?
  • What type of data or evidence did the presenter show to back up his or her information?
  • How does what you watched relate to what you’ve read in this week’s reading?
  • What other questions would you have for this presenter if you could have a conversation with him or her? What else would you like to know about the topic?
