We are all familiar with the recent events in Egypt. A TEDTalk was posted in March 2011. The talk was given in the same month. I have three reactions:
1) "The Internet" and the connections that are available do have amazing social consequences (good for the people, not so good for those opposed to the people).
2) Such events can be the focus of relevant curriculum for middle schoolers (and everyone else). How we can continue to ignore this in schools is beyond my comprehension.
3) How great to live in a time when I can (for free beyond the costs of accessing a computer and a connection) see a man who lived the important events describe the events.
