Scientists announced an important milestone in the summer of 2012 when physicists and the media declared that the Higgs boson particle, the "God" particle, has been discovered. Yet, what does that mean?
This TED Talks presentation from 2008 by eminent "rock star" physicist Brian Cox explains the work being done at the CERN supercollider, the role of the modern particle physicist and the elusive and illustrious Higgs particle.

Thanks! I watched about 30 TED Talks to select which ones I wanted to prepare guides for classrooms. My summer was put to great use and I feel more informed. I might be my own best student as I watched the TED Talks, read the transcripts, devised higher order questions/answers and prepared extension activities. What a brilliant and wonderful resource TED Talks are for our classrooms! Debbie

I saw your Ruth's posting on the Lesson Cloud Facebook page; so, I thought I would look at your freebie. I also teach math, now on the college level, but I did middle school for several years. Since you are new here are a few suggestions that might help you to better market your products.
Add a second page which is a directions or suggestions page. List several ways you use this product in your classroom. Never assume that a buyer knows how, why, or when to use your product. Use the footer to put the copyright symbol, your name and date of creation on EVERY page. Items, especially free ones, have been "stolen" from TPT and posted on other sites to be sold. You have to protect all of your creations. Also, number your pages.
It is important that we see what others are doing; so, feel free to look at any or all of my freebies listed below to gather some ideas. If you care to, a rating or any feedback you might have would be great.

Hi Scipi-
I really appreciate your feedback
Ruth has been an angel and I have learned so much- little tweaks to make my curriculum so much better.
I went back to my free one and immediately put in page numbers and a copyright sign. Since I am new, I really had not thought of that. The idea that something that I or anyone else on TpT worked so hard to craft could be sold on another website under someone else’s name is horrible. I do not mind sharing my material with friends but blatant theft is terrible. Wow!
I followed you on Pinterest and also followed you on TpT. I downloaded your recycled treasures lesson, too. This helped me visualize how you do the copyright sign. I also really liked your idea of the clothespins. I think I am going to use that for oral presentations this year. I’m thinking that my students can move the clothes pins as they go then I will have a daily visual count of who still needs to present.
Any other tips, links, ideas or networking advice is sincerely appreciated. I am thrilled to be a part of TpT. What an inspired idea.
Debbie

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Subject Area:
This is my 23rd year teaching. My husband (also an AP English teacher) and I launched our first son into college this summer. I teach AP English Language and newspaper journalism. Each instructional experience has helped me grow as a teacher- US Peace Corps; Togo (West Africa), inner city Miami, suburban Seattle, ESL in Korea, international school in Colombia, school of choice Miami, Florida Virtual School and now, suburban Atlanta. I love to read and write with my students. I am currently fascinated by the Flipped Classroom movement. Follow me on Twitter @dlaughey Friends have asked, "Why all the TED Talks?" First, I love them and have been an avid TED Talks podcast subscriber for several years. Making viewing guides gives me an opportunity to re-watch some of my favorites and write curriculum to support some of the most inspiring and interesting web-based presentations in the modern world. I think about which ones I would use in the classroom, what my teaching colleagues would use or what I would like my students and my own children to view in their classrooms. Send me your viewing guide suggestions!
