Above are the links to a video my ed. psych group made for the class. The point was to create an i movie based on a book and it's ideas. Our group did Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson. Greg Mortenson is a man who was more than willing to help anyone that needed it, especially when it came to education. He built schools throughout Pakistan and helped to improve the education of many young children. It is something we should all strive for as people. We need to realize that we can change the world, one step at a time- or in Greg's case, one cup of tea at a time. We, as teachers, can use the idea that one person can change the world in our classrooms. We should encourage our students to dream big and do something for the good of others, not just themselves.
