Jean is a math teacher and the Math Department Chair at Ransom Everglades School. She started teaching at Ransom Everglades School in 1984 and twenty-eight years later still thrives on the energy and intellectual challenges working with very bright students, faculty, and administrators affords her. In thespirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)")
