Problem: Anyway, it is the BEST for last. This TED Talk is THE BEST I have ever seen. This woman, Jill Bolte Taylor was a neuroanatomist who studied the brain and she HAD a stroke in her late 30's. She lived to tell the amazing tale of how she not only survived, but EXACTLY what was happening to her while she was going through the stroke and what happened in her brain, how it felt, and what her body did throughout. I will note, she is a bit of an odd bird in her speaking style, but it is almost spoken word near the end when she discusses her near death experience and she does it great. The first few minutes are a little boring, so just press on, it gets good!
Now, this will seem a little different to you. I want YOU to watch this TED Talk and then I want YOU to post 5 questions in your post about the TED Talk for others to answer. Then, go around and ANSWER the other student's questions that THEY posted about the TED Talk. Not only do you have to do that, BUT you must ALSO moderate your own post and reply to EACH PERSON who posts to you. I want to see some seriously thought provoking questions on this TED Talk, so you better do it justice! :) I know you will!!!!!
