LESSON CREATED BY JOSE G. LEPERVANCHE USING VIDEO FROM TEDxTalks YOUTUBE CHANNEL

Let’s Begin…

What is the future of DACA? Watch our dreamer’s talking about involuntary immigration. As a college student, activist, and community volunteer, Luis is working to change our perspective on the undocumented immigrant youth of this country. He is one of the thousands of people who were granted Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival.

The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) was implemented by by President Obama’s direction to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in 2012. President Trump is removing DACA and asking Congress for an immigration law.

1. What is the future of DACA and the dreamers?

2. How to influence our government leaders to improve their strategies and laws?

For example, immigration and the future of undocumented workers.

How technology can contribute to one of more of the UN Sustainable Development Goals SDGs?

On September 25th 2015, countries adopted a set of goals to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all as part of a new sustainable development agenda. Each goal has specific targets to be achieved over the next 15 years. For the goals to be reached, everyone needs to do their part: governments, the private sector, civil society and people like you. Visit their website and see how technology can help.

Risk-taking, mistake-making, and lifelong learning | Dr. Kathleen Ciez-Volz

This talk was given at first TEDxFSCJ 2014, a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. In this charming talk, Dr. Katheleen Ciez-Volz dives into the importance and need for all of us to reject fear and embarrassment over mistake-making, and instead take risks and embrace the possibility of mistakes for the sake of lifelong learning.

Fall 2016 Online Discussion:

Share a lesson that you learned, or an insight that you gained, from a mistake that you made in your workplace. What decision did you make? What risks were taken in the decision making process?

How, if at all, could that that mistake have been avoided? What what the most important lesson that you learned from the mistake?

TEDxFSCJ Day and Next TEDxFSCJ Learning Adventures. #TEDxFSCJ

TEDxFSCJ Day and Next TEDxFSCJ Learning Adventures. #TEDxFSCJ.

Yesterday, September 27, 2014, we all were on the top of TEDxFSCJ mountain. After months of climbing and building blocks, we reached FSCJ #OneCollege Summit.

Yesterday, we all were on the stage of Wilson Center. 100 attendees, caped by TEDx first timers’ rule, filled the stage facing our elevated red carpeted stage and screen with the unusual background of empty theater seats. All audience, speakers and volunteers had the experience of being part of a learning “performance” on stage. All attendees were “beyond the learning edge” getting new lessons from our speakers. As they entered the theater expecting to be in the patio or balcony, they were ushered to seats on the stage. Some of them commented: “weird”, “wow”, “what?”, “amazing”, “interesting”, etc. They did not what to expect but their time on stage was filled with lifelong lessons.

These are the new challenges. TEDxFSCJ Learning Adventures continue after this day with videos, blogs, pictures, new TED Ed lessons, TEDxFSCJ Blackboard and Facebook groups, TEDxFSCJ Salon at FSCJ Deerwood with focus on technologies and education, TEDxFSCJ seminars and conferences to share the lessons and learning tools, and of course our next TEDxFSCJ events.

Speakers, attendees, volunteers, and team are all TEDxFSCJ Ambassadors to share the experience, the ideas, and the challenges. We are now part of a global TEDx community.

Thank you all for creating and maintaining TEDxFSCJ. We were in the top of TEDxFSCJ mountain. Now it is time to hike down and start climbing our next mountains. Enjoy the journey. TEDxFSCJ is a lifelong learning adventure.
