Participants will have an opportunity to learn presentation skills, develop their own talk, Step into a one-of-a-kind professional learning experience with The Idea Workshop, led by the team from TED-Ed. Designed for educators, this highly interactive session guides participants through the powerful process behind crafting, refining, and sharing ideas that matter.

Rooted in the storytelling framework used in TED Talks, The Idea Workshop helps you uncover your core message, clarify your thinking, and shape ideas into compelling, meaningful narratives that resonate with others. Along the way, you’ll engage in reflection, collaboration, and practical exercises that build confidence in communicating ideas with purpose and impact.

Participants will also experience student talks and explore how to support students in developing stronger ideas and communicating them effectively. This exclusive ENGAGE experience offers a rare opportunity to learn directly from the TED-Ed team—and to walk away with not just inspiration, but practical strategies to elevate student voice and storytelling in your classroom.
