What Matters?

EDS Headmaster, Dr. Ned Murray, is calling for a revolution in early education.

In January of this year, TEDx Telfair Street invited Dr. Murray to present his case that early education should shift its focus to non-cognitive skills to prepare today’s children for a 21st century world. EDS is proud of Dr. Murray and eager to share the full video of his “Ted Talk” below. Please enjoy and share your comments at the bottom of this post!

An overview of TED from Ted.com:
TED is a global community, welcoming people from every discipline and culture who seek a deeper understanding of the world. We believe passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and, ultimately, the world. On TED.com, we’re building a clearinghouse of free knowledge from the world’s most inspired thinkers — and a community of curious souls to engage with ideas and each other, both online and at TED and TEDx events around the world, all year long.

An overview of TEDx Telfair Street from the event website:
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group.
