10 best TED talks for e learning

1) Daphne Koller: What we're learning from online education
Daphne Koller is enticing top universities to put their most intriguing courses online for free -- not just as a service, but as a way to research how people learn.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=U6FvJ6jMGHU

2) Salman Khan: Let's use video to reinvent education
Salman Khan talks about how and why he created the remarkable Khan Academy, a carefully structured series of educational videos offering complete curricula in math and, now, other subjects. He shows the power of interactive exercises, and calls for teachers to consider flipping the traditional classroom script -- give students video lectures to watch at home, and do "homework" in the classroom with the teacher available to help.

3) Peter Norvig: The 100,000-student classroom
In the fall of 2011 Peter Norvig taught a class with Sebastian Thrun on artificial intelligence at Stanford attended by 175 students in situ -- and over 100,000 via an interactive webcast. He shares what he learned about teaching to a global classroom.

5) Adora Svitak: What adults can learn from kids
Child prodigy Adora Svitak says the world needs "childish" thinking: bold ideas, wild creativity and especially optimism. Kids' big dreams deserve high expectations, she says, starting with
grownups' willingness to learn from children as much as to teach.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=V-bjOJzB7LY

6) Pawan Sinha on how brains learn to see
Pawan Sinha details his groundbreaking research into how the brain's visual system develops. Sinha and his team provide free vision-restoring treatment to children born blind, and then study how their brains learn to interpret visual data. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=xeFl0RE31x0

7) Richard Baraniuk on open-source learning
Rice University professor Richard Baraniuk explains the vision behind Connexions, his open-source, online education system. It cuts out the textbook, allowing teachers to share and modify course materials freely, anywhere in the world

8) Clifford Stoll: The call to learn
Clifford Stoll captivates his audience with a wildly energetic sprinkling of anecdotes, observations, asides -- and even a science experiment. After all, by his own definition, he's a scientist: "Once I do something, I want to do something else."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Gj8IA6xOpSk

9) Ken Robinson says schools kill creativity
Sir Ken Robinson makes an entertaining and profoundly moving case for creating an education system that nurtures (rather than undermines) creativity.

Que tal crear tu propia música New Age - a relajarse

Nombre: NatureSoundsFor.me
Es: Compone y escucha sonidos de la naturaleza
URL: http://naturesoundsfor.me/
Categoría: Audio
Tags: composiciones, naturaleza,sonidos

Los sonidos de la naturaleza tienen la particularidad de relajarnos, llenarnos de energía y hacer que nuestros sentidos despierten para concentrarnos en una tarea en particular. Lo ideal sería sumergirse en medio de la naturaleza y escuchar sus sonidos, pero hay momentos y situaciones que no lo permiten (por el ejemplo el trabajo).

About me

Nombre: About.me
Es: Tarjeta de presentación en internet.
URL: http://about.me/
Categoría: Empleo, Organización personal, Redes sociales
Tags: Blogger, Facebook, Flickr,LinkedIn, Twitter

Explicación:

About.me o “Acerca de mi” en español, es un servicio para crear una tarjeta de presentación web. En él se pueden conjuntar todos los perfiles de servicios sociales y personales como Twitter, Facebook, Blogger, Flickr, LinkedIn y muchos otros.

Además se puede personalizar el diseño muy fácilmente e incluir un descripción u otros medios de contacto.

El registro es rápido y esta pensada para tener un perfil completo en línea en muy poco tiempo. Ideal como forma de presentación digital.
