2024 9th_10th Final Participation Projects Semester 2
Objective:
To create a compelling TED Talk video recording in a group on any given topic.
Here's a week-long timeline for a 9th and 10th grade student project where students will
create a TED Talk in groups. The project will emphasize the use of ethos, pathos, and
logos and will culminate in a video presentation.
Requirements:
1. What in the world should you talk about? The one thing all Ted Talks have in
common is that they are delivered by people who are passionate about and
believe in what they are saying. So find something you are passionate about. It
could be a particular belief you hold, a political event, an experience you had, a
person in your life, a pet, dietary choices, a class you took, a place you visited, a
hobby, music you enjoy, an expectation you have for people, etc. You do not have
to persuade someone to do something; you may simply present something
beautiful.
2. Video should be 3-5 minutes long.
3. Everyone in the group must have a speaking part
4. Use Ethos, Pathos, Logos (see TED Talk Planning Sheet below)
