Suggested meeting time: 30-60 minutes (Some of you may choose to combine
this meeting with meeting #2.)

!
Before the meeting:
● Create a TED-Ed (ed.ted.com) account if you haven’t already. All members
over 13 should aim to have their own account. 

● Watch the first TED-Ed Club Lesson (http://ed.ted.com/on/vaY6FipN). Your
group can choose to do this before or during the meeting.
!
Guiding questions
● What is your name? How would you describe yourself? What are three
things you are passionate about? 

● What do you and your club members hope to get out of your TED-Ed Club
experience?

!
Materials
● A device to take pictures

● Index cards

● Pens

● Copies of this guidebook (one for each member)

!
Meeting activities
● Take a few minutes to create a name badge on an index card. Write your
name and at least 3 things that you are passionate about.

● Gather in small groups and introduce yourself to your fellow club members.
Learn each other’s names and get to know each other. 

● Share your reasons for joining a TED-ED Club with the group. Let people
know what you’re interested in and what you’re passionate about. This will
help your club members give meaningful feedback when you begin
developing your presentation idea.

!
What will you have created by the end of your meeting?
A name badge that lists 3 things you are passionate about. You will bring this to
future meetings so that everyone in the club knows your name and interests. 

!
After meeting #1:
● Browse through the TED Talks (www.ted.com) /TED-Ed Lessons (ed.ted.com)
to find ideas that speak to your passions. 

● Facilitator: Please send a photo of the name badges from different club
members to TED-Ed at TEDEdClubs@ted.com.

#1 Introduction week: What’s your passion?
It’s tough to give a good presentation on a topic that you’re not passionate about! This meeting is
all about getting to know your fellow club members and spending some time identifying and
articulating the ideas that motivate each member of your group. Later on, each club member will
present and record their own idea worth spreading in the form of a short TED-style Talk.
