I HAVE featured a number of talks or lectures from the official TED channel on YouTube. Now, I will feature some TED videos but this time it will be from their TED-Ed channel which offers well narrated, clearly written, and beautifully animated videos on different topics. I highly recommend this channel for teachers who may want to make their lectures interesting or students who need materials to make their reports more understandable.
How does your body know what time it is? – Marco A. Sotomayor
Length: 5:08
Sometimes, it may be puzzling to some of us how we can somehow tell or determine the time when we do not have a watch for reference. This video explains to us how our body is able to precisely tell or determine time.
Why are sharks so awesome? - Tierney Thys
Length: 4:35
I believe sharks are often misunderstood due to the media’s negative portrayals on them. This video gives us the uniqueness and awesomeness of sharks from being apex predators to how they can produce 50,000 teeth in a lifetime.
Are food preservatives bad for you? – Eleanor Nelsen
Length: 4:52
The introduction of food preservatives allowed a longer period for food storage but its health benefits has always been argued or debated. This video explains the history, process, and components of food preservation. The video also shows food preservatives that are good and those that, if taken too much, can be bad to our health.
How much of human history is on the bottom of the ocean? – Peter Campbell
Length: 4:45
Our vast oceans hold lots of mysteries and stories that are waiting to be discovered and told. Through underwater archaeology, we are slowly discovering our history through the artifacts that are at the ocean floor from how humans lived prior to our current era to how our ancestors gathered sea food.
What causes cavities? – Mel Rosenberg
Length: 5:00
Our dentists always remind us to brush our teeth to keep us away from cavities. However, not all of us understand or know the cause of cavities. This video will definitely help you in keeping those teeth away from cavities as the video explains its causes. This will surely help you save money and from going to the dentist too much.
