<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 33px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">What do rap shows, barbershop banter and Sunday services have in common? As Christopher Emdin says, they all hold the secret magic to enthrall and teach at the same time — and it’s a skill we often don't teach to educators. The science advocate (and cofounder of Science Genius B.A.T.T.L.E.S. with the GZA of the Wu-Tang Clan) offers a vision to make the classroom come alive.</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="color: #333333; font-size: 22px; line-height: 33px;">We live in a world of unseeable beauty, so subtle and delicate that it is imperceptible to the human eye. To bring this invisible world to light, filmmaker Louie Schwartzberg bends the boundaries of time and space with high-speed cameras, time lapses and microscopes. At TED2014, he shares highlights from his latest project, a 3D film titled "Mysteries of the Unseen World," which slows down, speeds up, and magnifies the astonishing wonders of nature.</span>

Bioluminescence expert Edith Widder was one of the first to film this glimmering world. At TED2011, she brings some of her glowing friends onstage, and shows more astonishing footage of glowing undersea life.</span>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, 'DejaVu Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">In this talk, Sugata Mitra will take us through the origins of schooling as we know it, to the dematerialisation of institutions as we know them. Thirteen years of experiments in children's education takes us through a series of startling results – children can self-organise their own learning, they can achieve educational objectives on their own, they can read by themselves. Finally, the most startling of them all: groups of children with access to the internet can learn anything by themselves. From the slums of India, to the villages of India and Cambodia, to poor schools in Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, the USA and Italy, to the schools of Gateshead and the rich international schools of Washington and Hong Kong, Sugata's experimental results show a strange new future for learning. - </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">"Life comes at us very quickly, and what we need to do is take that amorphous flow of experience and somehow extract meaning from it."

The problem was the textbook: it was impossible to understand. He delivers a rousing call for science teachers to ditch the jargon and extreme precision, and instead make science sing through stories and demonstrations. </span></span>

Using a computer model based on Voyager data, scientists have shown that the sun's magnetic field becomes bubbly in this region due to reconnection. Because of this, cosmic rays must slowly work their way through the magnetic foam before continuing on toward the sun.</span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 17px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Allow education to evolve naturally in line with society -- as it always has -- rather than constantly trying to revolutionise it! Jane Ballantine, a former teacher and mobile-learning enthusiast/entrepreneur, analyzes different methods used to "fix" the education system and their mixed results as well as where the education system is currently going in the UK and overseas in light of the evolution and spread of modern mobile devices. The technology may be changing fast, but humans aren't; and<b> our need for good and inspiring teachers remains.</b></span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 17px;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Jane is an educationalist, e-learning expert and mobile app entrepreneur releasing educational apps She worked as a research scientist and engineer before her passion for education led her to retrain as a teacher. After five years teaching science and maths in London, she left the classroom to create innovative and award-winning e-learning products. Her company, Limitless Learning Limited, specialises in producing web-optimised learning materials for school-aged children</span></span></div>

Unfortunately, they're not matched by the way we teach. The growing gap between teaching practice and learning practice is acute and growing. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 17px; text-align: justify;">In this video, a bottle nosed dolphin with limited mobility due to a hook and fishing line restricting a pectoral fin, approaches some divers for help. Diving instructor noticed that the dolphin was hanging around them, and that it wasn't able to move freely. Closer inspection revealed the ocean debris lodged in the fin.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 17px;">Thankfully, the dolphin not only allowed the divers to attempt to work the line and hook out </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 17px;">of the fin, but actually shifted its body to make it easier.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 17px;"><br />
</span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 17px; text-align: justify;">The divers were able to remove the fishing line which allowed increased movement for the animal. Unfortunately, the hook was not able to be removed.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 17px; text-align: justify;"><br /></span>
