What is TEDEd?

It sparks and celebrates the ideas of teachers and students around the world.

Everything they do supports learning by helping curious students around the globe bring TED to their schools and gain presentation literacy skills. TEDEd will invite teachers and clubs to connect globally throughout the year. TEDEd has grown from an idea worth spreading into an award-winning education platform that serves millions of teachers and students around the world every day.
