Do you have an interest in BIG IDEAS? Do you like learning about creators, inventors, creative problem-solvers, leaders and experts in their respective fields? Do you like watching MEDIA as one way to learn about the world? Have you ever watched a TED Talk and thought "WOW!". This class just might be a good fit for you! Each week, students will come to class having already watched the assigned viewing. Students will also be expected to have completed an accompanying assignment in advance of the class meeting. This assignment can be printed and completed in a paper/pencil format or may be completed digitally in a google slides format. Although the live portion of this class is only available to students, this class would be a fantastic opportunity to watch this content WITH your child. This would support them with the content, provide discussion opportunities and allow you to spend time together in a wonderful learning opportunity that is disguised as a SCREEN. Classes cover specific pre-determined TED Talks listed below. TED Talks are "not rated" and if you are unsure if this content is right for your child, please screen the content yourself. Most of the TED Talks are 10 - 15 minute in length. The class will be structured as follows: 15 min - Welcome, introductions, informal initial reactions to assigned media 30 min - Students and teacher will informally share portions of completed assignments in a discussion based format, student-led discussion, teacher-led discussion, questions, challenges, critiques etc. 15 min - Preview of the next week's assigned viewing content. This is intentional and based on brain-based learning. We will spend time activating prior knowledge about the upcoming content. Essentially creating a "file" or "schema" where new learning and constructs will be housed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 1: TED Talk David Katz - The Surprising Solution to Ocean Plastic, 11 min 44 sec, free streaming, not rated https://www.ted.com/talks/david_katz_the_surprising_solution_to_ocean_plastic Can we solve the problem of ocean plastic pollution and end extreme poverty at the same time? That's the ambitious goal of The Plastic Bank: a worldwide chain of stores where everything from school tuition to cooking fuel and more is available for purchase in exchange for plastic garbage -- which is then sorted, shredded and sold to brands who reuse "social plastic" in their products. Join David Katz to learn more about this step towards closing the loop in the circular economy. "Preventing ocean plastic could be humanity's richest opportunity," Katz says. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 2: TED Talk Greta Thunberg - The disarming case to act right now on climate change, 11 min 3 sec, free streaming, not rated https://www.ted.com/talks/greta_thunberg_the_disarming_case_to_act_right_now_on_climate_change In this passionate call to action, 16-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg explains why, in August 2018, she walked out of school and organized a strike to raise awareness of global warming, protesting outside the Swedish parliament and grabbing the world's attention. "The climate crisis has already been solved. We already have all the facts and solutions," Thunberg says. "All we have to do is to wake up and change." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Week 3: TED Talk Bryan Stevenson - We need to talk about an injustice, 23 min 20 sec, free streaming, not rated https://www.ted.com/talks/bryan_stevenson_we_need_to_talk_about_an_injustice#t-732 In an engaging and personal talk -- with cameo appearances from his grandmother and Rosa Parks -- human rights lawyer Bryan Stevenson shares some hard truths about America's justice system, starting with a massive imbalance along racial lines: a third of the country's black male population has been incarcerated at some point in their lives. These issues, which are wrapped up in America's unexamined history, are rarely talked about with this level of candor, insight and persuasiveness. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 4: TED Talk Rutger Bregman - Universal Basic Income, 14 min 49 sec, free streaming, not rated https://www.ted.com/talks/rutger_bregman_poverty_isn_t_a_lack_of_character_it_s_a_lack_of_cash "Ideas can and do change the world," says historian Rutger Bregman, sharing his case for a provocative one: guaranteed basic income. Learn more about the idea's 500-year history and a forgotten modern experiment where it actually worked -- and imagine how much energy and talent we would unleash if we got rid of poverty once and for all. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 5: TED Talk Hans and Ola Rosling - How not to be ignorant about the world, 18 min 56 sec, free streaming, not rated https://www.ted.com/talks/hans_and_ola_rosling_how_not_to_be_ignorant_about_the_world How much do you know about the world? Hans Rosling, with his famous charts of global population, health and income data (and an extra-extra-long pointer), demonstrates that you have a high statistical chance of being quite wrong about what you think you know. Play along with his audience quiz — then, from Hans’ son Ola, learn 4 ways to quickly get less ignorant. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 6: TED Talk Pia Mancini - Democracy 2.0, 13 min 15 sec, free streaming, not rated https://www.ted.com/talks/pia_mancini_how_to_upgrade_democracy_for_the_internet_era Pia Mancini and her colleagues want to upgrade democracy in Argentina and beyond. Through their open-source mobile platform they want to bring citizens inside the legislative process, and run candidates who will listen to what they say. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 7: TED Talk Brene Brown - The Power of Vulnerability, 20 min and 3 sec, free streaming, not rated https://www.ted.com/talks/brene_brown_the_power_of_vulnerability Brené Brown studies human connection -- our ability to empathize, belong, love. In a poignant, funny talk, she shares a deep insight from her research, one that sent her on a personal quest to know herself as well as to understand humanity. A talk to share.

교사 전문성 및 자격증
Hello and Welcome!
**Beginning June of 2024 I will no longer be teaching classes during the school year months, as I have taken a job teaching full-time at a middle school. I plan to offer classes in the summer months beginning in summer 2025. Please reach out anytime to request summer course offerings!**
About me:
My name is Carie Beth Russell. I am the mother of two teenagers, a cat named Margo and an energetic dog named Scout Finch. I live in the Midwest region of the United States with my family.
I am a public elementary school and middle school general education teacher and gifted education specialist. I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Curriculum and Instruction and a Master of Science degree in Education. I spent a season at “home” after my second child was born, but remained active in the field of education by tutoring, teaching educational summer camps out of my home and teaching at a homeschool enrichment program, substitute teaching and teaching an elementary computer skills class. My two children attend public school and take courses on Outschool.
I love interacting with children and teens and being an educator. I'm astounded by children every single day. I consider it an honor and privilege to meet your child and develop an educational relationship with him/her. Thank you for considering one of my courses!
Teaching Style:
My teaching style is centered around student-led learning. It’s my belief that supporting children as THEY learn is the way to encourage their intrinsic patterns of curiosity, observation, wonder and problem-solving that will serve them well in all developmental stages of being a life-long learner. In my classroom, student will take turns leading discussion, actively listening, respectfully considering what others have said, respectfully disagreeing, informally presenting assignments. Students will be encouraged to participate verbally with screens and mics ON. That said, I am flexible and sensitive to different comfort levels around speaking and being onscreen - many of my students begin by participating in the “chat” feature at first.
Professional Values:
Diversity -
I enjoy connecting with students from diverse backgrounds. It's one of my favorite things about teaching for Outschool. I have met so many students from various cultures, countries, learning styles, family structures, geographies and hobbies. I've had students who live on a boat year round, students who take classes from a Yurt, students living in South Africa, Germany, Canada, England, Japan, students who are actors, dancers, explorers. I’ve taught students who are gifted, twice-exceptional, on the Autism spectrum, have learning disabilities, are neurodivergent, neurotypical, LGBTQ. I’ve taught classes for pre-school up through high school. I've had students take my course offerings three years in a row as I've moved up with them as they've grown. I've taught families, siblings, cousins and neighbors. I absolutely love the connections that I'm able to make as an Outschool teacher, which both better me as a human and expand my own horizons and world-view. I continue to grow and develop in my own education and training as an educator and take professional development courses which support this. Please continue to check back here for a list of the courses I’ve taken recently.
Safe Learning Spaces -
Developing a safe space for students to learn and take appropriate educational, social and emotional risks is a huge priority for me. Cursing, derogatory language, bullying etc will not be tolerated.

Curriculum:
Most novel and text studies use the structure of “Literature Circles”, although this looks very different depending on the text (fiction v. nonfiction) and the age of the students. I usually offer both a written and technology-based format for assignments and responses. I also use Scholastic Magazines and curriculum in those content specific courses (Scope Magazine - a language arts publication, The New York Times Upfront Magazine - a social studies publication for high school students, Scholastic Junior - a social studies publication for middle grade students). I trend toward teaching about social justice issues including classes on girl’s education (Malala), history (The Indigenous People’s History of the United States), humanitarian issues (Refugee), physical diversity (Insignificant Events in the Life of a Cactus, Wonder) and neurodiversity (Mango-Shaped Space, Counting by 7s).
Communication:
Communication from students and parents is encouraged and appreciated. I will respond within 24 - 48 hours.
Age Ranges:
My course offerings are listed as having a flexible age-range. This means that although your child’s age may not align completely with the suggested range, you may enroll your child anyway with the understanding that the maturity of the students, pace of the content, technology skills etc might not perfectly align with your student and require additional support from you as well as the instructor. Communication with the instructor is helpful and appreciated about students who are outside of the recommended age range.
Missed Classes, Transfers and Refunds:
When a student is absent from a class, they may “catch up” by watching the video recording of class, reading the Classroom “wall” in Outschool for any missed assignments or information, and also message the instructor with any questions. Absences known and communicated in advance are greatly appreciated. Transfers to an alternate section offering of a course are available on a case by case basis. Course refund status is set to: Moderate - Full refund within 24 hours of purchase or up to a week in advance of the class, then a 75% refund within the first week of the class.
Minimum enrollment:
Due to the student-led and discussion-based format of my teaching-style and coursework, the minimum number of enrolled students per class is four. I will keep parents informed of low-enrollment classes as the first day of class approaches, so you will not be caught off-guard by a last minute cancellation.
Class Cancellations: While infrequent and conscientiously avoided, inevitably a class meeting must sometimes be cancelled by the instructor. This might be due to technology issues, family emergency, etc. Students and parents will be given as much prior warning as is possible. Cancelled classes will be rescheduled at the same time slot, essentially extending class by one week. In the event that this is not possible for the instructor or the student, a “credit” will be given to the student for a future class with the instructor for the same dollar amount as was paid for the cancelled class.리뷰
