TED Studies, created in collaboration with Wiley, are curated video collections 壽� supplemented by rich educational materials 壽� for students, educators and self-guided learners. In Climate Change, speakers give talks that boldly illuminate the nature and scale of current-day climate science, policy and ethics. They explore the economics and psychology of individual and collective action 壽� or inaction 壽� on climate change in order to assess the costs of our choices and opportunities for change. Relevant areas of interest, study and coursework include: ecology, atmospheric science, oceanography, glaciology, energy development, environmental policy, science in the media, political science, ethics, sociology, behavioral psychology and cultural studies.

The forests of North America have seen plenty of change in a pretty short period of time, at least geologically speaking. Up until about 18,000 years ago, the Laurentide Ice Sheet covered Canada and much of the eastern United States. When temperatures climbed and the ice sheet retreated, forests gradually reemerged. But how? Did pockets of trees find refuge in sheltered areas during the Ice Age? Or were all tree species pushed to the southern tier of the United States, only to spread north again after the ice disappeared? Scientists still debate the topic, but one thing is clear: today‰Ûªs forests in the eastern United States bear little resemblance to post-glacial forests. Starting with European colonial settlers and marching through four centuries of development, drought, and fire, the tree cover of North America became fragmented.

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the equation of a line in point-slope form. The user can move a slider that controls the slope, and can drag the point that defines the line. The graph changes accordingly and equation for the line is continuously recalculated with every slider and / or point move. The grid, axis pointers and coordinates can be turned on and off. The equation display can be turned off to permit class exercises and then turned back on the verify the answers. The applet can be printed as it appears on the screen to make handouts. The web page has a full description of the concept of the equation of a line in point - slope form, a worked example and has links to other pages relating to coordinate geometry. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate equiangular triangles (all interior angles congruent). The applet presents an equiangular triangle where the user can drag any vertex. As the vertex is dragged, the others move automatically to keep the triangle equiangular. The angles and side lengths are updated continuously to show that the all interior angles are always congruent. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

An interactive applet and associated web page that have the definition and meaning of 'equidistant' as applied to points. The applet shows to points and another that is equidistant from them no matter how you drag them around. User can also turn on the locus of the equidistant point, illustrating the definition of a line 'the locus of all points equidistant from two others' Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

This site offers geography and history activities showing how two years in history had an indelible impact on American politics and culture. Students interpret historical maps, identify territories acquired by the U.S., identify states later formed from these territories, examine the territorial status of Texas, and identify political, social, and economic issues related to the expansion of the U.S. in the 1840s.

An interactive applet and associated web page that describe the Euler line. It shows a triangle whose vertices can be dragged. As you drag them, the centroid, circumcenter and orthocenter move appropriately, showing that they are always collinear, always lying on the Euler line. There are controls to individually turn on the construction lines for each center. This helps visualize the concept since if they are all drawn at once, the diagram would be hopelessly confused. The web page has a full description the Euler line and has links to separate pages which go into each center in depth. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector. Diagram can be printed. This resource is a component of the Math Open Reference Interactive Geometry textbook project at http://www.mathopenref.com.

In the essay ‰"Mother Tongue,‰" Amy Tan explains that she ‰"began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with.‰" How these ‰"different Englishes‰" or even a language other than English contribute to identity is a crucial issue for adolescents.

In this lesson, students explore this issue by brainstorming the different languages they use in speaking and writing, and when and where these languages are appropriate. They write in their journals about a time when someone made an assumption about them based on their use of language, and share their writing with the class. Students then read and discuss Amy Tan's essay ‰"Mother Tongue.‰" Finally, they write a literacy narrative describing two different languages they use and when and where they use these languages.

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the exterior angles that are formed where a transversal crosses two lines. The applet shows the two possible pairs of exterior angles in turn when in animation mode. By dragging the three lines, it can be seen that the angles are supplementary only when the lines are parallel. When not in animated mode, there is a button that alternates the two pairs of angles. The text on the page discusses the properties of the angle pairs both in the parallel and non-parallel cases. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.
