With spellbinding eagerness, he talks about how his 826 Valencia tutoring center inspired others around the world to open their own volunteer-driven, wildly creative writing labs. But you don't need to go that far, he reminds us -- it's as simple as asking a teacher "How can I help?" He asks that we share our own volunteering stories at his new website, Once Upon a School.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/38417-dave-eggers-2008-ted-prize-wish-once-upon-a-school">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/38396-robert-wright-how-cooperation-eventually-trumps-conflict 2008-05-16T06:32:37Z TED Talks <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wcZFIy2mfyE&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wcZFIy2mfyE&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/38396-robert-wright-how-cooperation-eventually-trumps-conflict"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/43361" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p><a href="http://www.ted.com">www.ted.com</a> Author Robert Wright explains "non-zero-sumness," a game-theory term describing how players with linked fortunes tend to cooperate for mutual benefit.

Once we recognize that life is a non-zero-sum game, in which we all must cooperate to succeed, it will force us to see that moral progress -- a move toward empathy -- is our only hope.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/38396-robert-wright-how-cooperation-eventually-trumps-conflict">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/38387-ernest-madu-bringing-world-class-health-care-to-the-poorest 2008-05-16T06:32:36Z TED Talks <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/IN88mI8zpSg&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/IN88mI8zpSg&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/38387-ernest-madu-bringing-world-class-health-care-to-the-poorest"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/43352" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p><a href="http://www.ted.com">www.ted.com</a> Dr. Ernest Madu runs the Heart Institute of the Caribbean in Kingston, Jamaica, where he proves that -- with careful design, smart technical choices, and a true desire to serve -- it's possible to offer world-class healthcare in the developing world.
