This past year my students analyzed social issues in To Kill a Mockingbird and then chose a Ted Talk to watch on the same social issues and how they are applicable in our society today. Students had the option to read one of the transcripts in hard copy or to watch and listen to a speaker of their choice. They reflected on the speaker's message to society, how it connects to our present day life, and how it connects to life in the 1930's (To Kill a Mockingbird era). To create an authentic audience for students, I would have liked to ask students to present their own Ted Talk (on a social issue of their choosing) to the class, staff, peers, parents, and community members.
