Am I the only one who actually like that screaming. It sounds funny and makes it fun to watch

I like it when the speaker really elaborates their point, I see a lot of comments like "save yourself 15min the point of this video was..." If someone just told me that I would just pass it off but because she was so motivational I really want to get up and move now

Physical activity is an intervention, not a break from learning! Amen

message is great... the screaming is horrible!

One of the Best Ted Talks I have ever watched. She's Amazing! That's why she received that standing ovation! She's not loud, She's engaging and her Movement and Engagement is representative of her main point! And guess what ; it works. She had me from the beginning till the end. Well done!

Awesome message !!! I like her presentation style. So different from the normal stagnant lectures

She's so hyped!!!

I agree with this speaker. We definitely need more physical exercise. But It is also possible that those statistics are showing that: If the better you are at science the more you understand the importance of physical exercise, and not the other way around as those statistics concluded, that: "If you exercise more you will be more creative". Although exercise will help you function better mentally, more oxygen flow to the brain and so on, but if someone lacking logic and imagination, then nothing will help them, not even more exercise, they might lose weight, but that's all. There's plenty of proof of this. Just take a look how many people are exercising regularly and they have no creativity at all. If you want to be creative, open your mind, and think outside the box. The possibilities are infinite.

Brilliant speech, amazing energy! love it! Thanks Kim Bevill! :)

I would give her 1000 likes all at once! Really captivating!

I had this idea long ago. As someone with ADD I noticed long ago that not sitting for too long and continue blood flow helps focus and feeling alert plus helps keeping heart disease and blood clots at bay. What we begin as children sets tone for what comes easy as adults. I would have a game with an alarm every X minutes and when it rings to take a lap around the classroom, walking or running as free choice. Controlled chaos! When we make things a game the brain learns faster. And what counts isn't how many minutes you work, but how many of them are productive so taking away a few minutes of controlled chaos for better focus will help more stick of the other minutes. And smiles and laughter from running around makes a happy classroom - and happy students with joy from endorphins are less likely to bully and have more compassion. I'm not saying it would vanish, but less likely. And with endorphins, the natural high, you get positive reinforcement that school is where fun happens, not only do you decrease conflict but kids are more eager to go, less stress, better immune systems, and by that, better future. We aren't books to be stacked, we are biological creatures with motivation on what feels like a personal benefit. And what do we benefit from? Fun.

LOVE THIS, I DO BELIEVE THAT getting kids to move up and thinking does work...

I saw Kim as a cheerleader throughout this presentation. Normally, I don't like cheerleaders much coz they seem to be trying to drum up enthusiasm for things that - to me - don't seem particularly important ... however, this simple idea of physical movement IS important. When I was growing up, I remember when schools cut the amount of recess time, and I thought to myself "Are they crazy?" My Mom then enrolled me in a tumbling class, to make sure I got my physical activity. Didn't appreciate it then, but grew to understand and love it. Thanks Mom. And thanks, Kim!

I would say that using the arts in physical ways would be even better than say just a 20 minute walk. Dancing, singing, rhythmic clapping and tapping while moving and speaking poetry and then sitting absolutely still for a few minutes with eyes closed doing mindfulness meditation would certainly open up the mind making it receptive to ideas.

You know the best Ted Talk.s, they're the ones where the time just fly's by

My wife thought I was seeing inappropriate movies. I slept on the dog's house.

If it wasn't for the red circle to keep her in place, she would jump out of your screen and make you move.

A really good presentation. Thanks for delivering it and sharing. Couldn't agree more.

I just loved!! you are fantastic. thank you

Thank you very much for your presentation,,you are creative.

awesome! thank you !

To me, 5:21 translates as a sanctimonious "I did it, why can't you?!", not a compassionate "I just want you to know I feel your pain".

What are some idea for getting students to move and be physically active in the classroom? I am a high school teacher in a computer science classroom. I love the idea but I am not sure how to implement it due to a lack of space and not wanting students to accidentally knock over computers. Does anyone have any ideas on getting the students to safely move in a small space?

Amazing message! Well done 👍🏻

please stop screaming..

Hello, I had to follow the captions, and just for an application I am to correct them. there were a couple mistakes, they are silly, but they might make someone lose the thread Grammatically the I's aren't capitalized 1:20 Says: Now that this Should Say: Now That's a lesson 8:46 Level that's free keep, Freaky 10:41 on, Or Not 12:24 We can sink, Think 15:09 nothing, Me your time When you get a chance, could you fix that? That'll help the 360 million folks globally who rely on closed captions to understand videos. Thank you, and keep up the great work!

So lovely 😍

Yes good idea

Learn to present yourself!!

Excellent talk 👍

Is there a single ted talk out there that doesn't revolve around the following? 1. Don't run away from challenges and fears 2. Eat better and reduce sugar / processed foods 3. Sleep more 4. Meditate 5. Exercise. They need to save us time and just tick one of these boxes, then walk off the stage.

At last, we know why Steven Hawking is so smart; he moves so much. It also explains why all the football players are the smartest kids in the class.

Ted talks taking notes

A sound message, "a moving body & brain accelerates learning". Not a new fact, but how to get all teachers doing that. there's the challenge. But we also learn with other senses integrated. Would loved to have Kim use some visuals and lessen her 'Shouting'

While I like her idea, I can barely stand her.

There is no proof movement makes you study better. How does it work in different classroom settings and subjects?

Well Done!

Really it’s good for out kids

"if you don't move, you are not on grade level." let's not get ahead of ourselves here... JK I FREAKING LOVE HER.

Wooow

Okay so at first I was thinking "cocaine" but I love her passion so much.

It is excellent

Physical exercise is the 🔑...

So I just watched 15 minutes of video to discover that you are supposed to move your body to have a better intellectual performance

i did not really dig the patriotism in this but the message is great :)

Give time back to children. Time for themselves!

That coke... that mother f***ing cocaine.

Shepherd's Chapel Network !!!!!!! Pastor Murray is an Anointed Servant of GOD who teaches the Word of GOD with Authority!!!!!!!

90% of my kids teachers are obese in elementary. In Middle school it is way different. They all look so sad and unfulfilled people, all women by the way. One man but he is physically fit.

not movement but excess oxygen flow throw your brain & body.

hard to watch. comic sans alert also

...every cell is begging for it, movemet means life....

Jeez Calm down lady 😂😂😂

Not new info. Somebody said over 100 years ago. Was just ignored like two stop streets and a robot.

I'm confused by the terminology here. She is saying children need to get physically 'fit', but that is different from merely being physically active. For example, she says obese children score better if the test is preceded by physical activity. That doesn't mean the obese children are physically fit. I'm worried that the takeaway for some viewers is that they simply need to have students take a 10 minute walk before standardized tests. The REAL message is that we need to be creating a culture of physical activity that permeates the classroom in a way that continuously enhances learning.

I thought you did a great job Kim, bump the haters

Somebody's had a few pots of coffee.

pls stop shouting pls.. i can undersand her student.the voice was so loud. nice talk though

This message couldn't be more relevant, now 5 years later. Excellent. And, those that don't like the patriotism, need to move! (out of this country).

shes trying to be pewdiepie xD

content is OK but the presentation is horrible, sorry Mam!

It is great pity that she didn't also search in google another topic- "how loud screaming and crying affect you lecture".....

This idea has been debunked (essentially). She's mixing correlation with causation. There is some evidence to show that obesity directly affects brain power, ability to think and process but only to a small degree. The reason obese children fail more often or do worse is because they are aware of their obesity, they become emotionally tired, de-motivated and they stop believing in their ability to achieve things. This systematically affects them at all levels in life, including with their education. This becomes a vicious cycle. There are many people out there who are obese and highly successful. These people live in a healthy environment that nurtures them, encourages them and gives them constructive criticism. This doesn't mean obesity should be accepted as-is, but the only way people can work on their bodies and their minds is from a place of positivity and a growth mindset. They need to believe that they can and will succeed/change and they also need to see that others believe that of them. This is why fat shaming is so bad- it doesn't help and it actually does more damage. Also because obesity is such an easy thing to fall into based on our basic biology and psychology it is necessary for us to have mediators who control our food enviroment- we need taxes on sugary/processed/junk food/drinks and we need to as a society talk about food, eating better and becoming healthier. The conversation about health food and healthy lifestyles has to be actively encouraged at school, work places and with our health professionals so these ideas become prevalent in society and culture.

I think we should play chess while moving lol research

I really wanted to watch this video, like I do with all TED Talks, but I couldn't stand her.

omg-her screaming and voice exercises! No! I cant watch the rest.

Holy Annoying!

Stop the nervous walking around. It's very annoying!

I couldn't watch, she's unbearable

Just weird.

apparently this woman doesn't travel much. Narrow minded

wtf?

yeah, kids don't learn because they don't move in class, and that's why they love physical education....how come nobody thought about that before....I have a feeling that there is a lack of holistic view in this research.

I want this teacher so bad... it’s not even funny anymore! :)

Nice idea, however extremely horrible presentation, just puts you off

Irritating

This is awful, unfortunately.. don't they get couching before speaking in public?

My ears hurt .
