How to use
Once you choose a video, you can also look at the ed.ted.com website to find a matching guided lesson. For instance, I searched for a video on confidence and the TED-Ed LTI led me to this one, which I can embed directly on a Canvas Page. Then, on the website, that video has an accompanying lesson and questions – “Think questions” (usually multiple choice and mainly used to test what the students were able to absorb from the video), “Dig Deeper” questions and related resources, and “Discuss” questions (discussion prompts and open threads).
