Ted Talks

This Board Counts Towards Peer Review and Scattergories

Hello there! This is a Research Source Evaluation Practice Board! Lets discuss Thompson's Ted Talk — I'd love to hear your thoughts about the talk as part of your first post.

First Post – after Watching Karen Thompson's Ted Talk here https://www.ted.com/talks/karen_thompson_walker_what_fear_can_teach_us?language=en  Write a post that discusses the ways that Thompson's talk could be useful as a research source, and how Thompson's talk may be less useful as a research source (so, the pro's and cons).
Second Post- Review the posts of peers and respond to their points with "research evaluation criteria" from the link below and your handbook section on "Evaluating Research Sources."
