A1 Curiosity breeds innovation, resilience, adaptability and the ability to question. Vital skills. #TedEdChat

georgetteloui Aug 16 @ 6:04 PM EDT

@TED_ED curiosity makes you question everything you see,hear and read! U stop being a passive receiver,which is important for Ss #TEDEdChat

Rdene915 Aug 16 @ 6:05 PM EDT

@TED_ED #tededchat Hi frm Pgh, I teach Span A1 curiosity increases interest in prob solving, leads to innovation,crit thinking, new learning

sffeded - Moderator Aug 16 @ 6:06 PM EDT

@piptinning Couldn't agree more. How do you engage your own students' curiosity, Pip? #TEDEdChat

DRossiter87 Aug 16 @ 6:07 PM EDT

@TED_ED A1 because curiosity puts a dot outside of our current knowledge sphere #TEDEdChat https://t.co/BardhyGwp2

sffeded - Moderator Aug 16 @ 6:07 PM EDT

@georgetteloui @TED_ED Totally agreed, Georgia! What do you do when a student is a passive receiver? #TEDEdChat

sffeded - Moderator Aug 16 @ 6:08 PM EDT

@Rdene915 @TED_ED For sure, Rachelle! What kind of questions do you ask to inspire curiosity in your students? #tededchat

ac_lord1 Aug 16 @ 6:08 PM EDT

A1 What would motivate Ss to learn something they didn't want to learn about? Curious minds have a desire for answers #TEDEdChat

sffeded - Moderator Aug 16 @ 6:09 PM EDT

@DRossiter87 @TED_ED Absolutely, Dan. Pushing the frontier on the possibilities, right? #TEDEdChat

PSassersWorld Aug 16 @ 6:10 PM EDT

A1. Curiosity drives each individual student down their own learning path. Autonomy helps engagement. #TEDEdChat

PSassersWorld Aug 16 @ 6:20 PM EDT

A2: Ss questions let us know where they want dig deeper, what needs to be better explained/understood, how they're interpreting #TEDEdChat
