0:01 - 0:02TED-Ed team here.
-
0:02 - 0:03As you know, we usually post
-
0:03 - 0:05animated educator lessons,
-
0:05 - 0:07but today we wanted to try something a little different,
-
0:07 - 0:10and we need your help to figure out next steps.
-
0:10 - 0:12We've recently learned that a large number
-
0:12 - 0:13of students that use TED-Ed
-
0:13 - 0:15want to know more about career options,
-
0:15 - 0:17and that they and the teachers and guidance counselors
-
0:17 - 0:18that work with them need better tools
-
0:18 - 0:20to make that happen.
-
0:20 - 0:21We've been busy trying to design
-
0:21 - 0:23an interactive series to meet those needs,
-
0:23 - 0:25and today we want to share three videos
-
0:25 - 0:27that demo how the series could work.
-
0:27 - 0:29Each video features four people
-
0:29 - 0:30with four different careers
-
0:30 - 0:33reading questions submitted by students.
-
0:33 - 0:34The answers to those questions
-
0:34 - 0:36and follow-up questions can be explored
-
0:36 - 0:40choose-your-own-adventure style through annotations.
-
0:40 - 0:41For the purposes of the demo,
-
0:41 - 0:43we sourced a few questions from students
-
0:43 - 0:45and recruited a few TED speakers
-
0:45 - 0:47and other professionals to answer the questions,
-
0:47 - 0:49but those two things were done independently
-
0:49 - 0:50of one another.
-
0:50 - 0:51The idea for the actual series
-
0:51 - 0:52is that the next set of videos
-
0:52 - 0:54would only feature questions and people
-
0:54 - 0:57suggested and voted up by you, the viewers.
-
0:57 - 0:58So, if you tell us that the next video
-
0:58 - 1:01should undoubtedly feature an arachnologist,
-
1:01 - 1:02an album art creator,
-
1:02 - 1:03a particle physicist,
-
1:03 - 1:04and an engineer,
-
1:04 - 1:07all giving away their trade secrets for your benefit,
-
1:07 - 1:09we'll try our best to make that happen.
-
1:09 - 1:11We think this could be a pretty fun series,
-
1:11 - 1:13and we look forward to your feedback.
-
1:13 - 1:14Enjoy the demo!
