When Mary posted the TED video, I immediately remebered this one. Not that it has something to do with the topic itself, but that she talks about the risks of limiting our views on the world. Suits different situations. Hope you guys like it.
Btw, Suely from SE suggested this one in her session about discipline.

rsrs so...Suely must be as smart as WE ARE! =)
Just loved it, Márcia!! BTW, Ted is a great source of inspiration! And I love it when she talks about how she could only think of that boy as a poor person...Don´t we sometimes look at our own sts based on stereotypes as well? Or don´t we just prepare our lessons looking for ready-made recipes? I think it has a lot to do with Ken Robinson´s video, because when we, as teachers, dare to be creative, we do have to take our titles and previous experiences off the table, and (always) look at our lessons and groups from the most different perspectives as possible. BTW, that´s why I enjoy peer observation - ´cause I see room for a lot of renewal there...
