Very
short post this week as I am snowed under with work - plus the sun is shining
and the sandy shores of Sandbanks are at the bottom of my garden and are
calling out to me!
Have
you come across the wonder of TED yet? I'm probably way behind the times but
after a friend sent me a video link from it I've been hooked ever since.
So
what is TED? .....
TED
is: "a non profit website devoted to Ideas worth spreading. It started out
as a conference bringing people together from three worlds: Technology,
Entertainment and Design. Since then its scope has become even
broader."
TED is
now a global website where people from all over the world have their talks and
ideas published via global conferences.
It is a
brilliant place to broaden your ideas, learn something new and see and hear
about the world from a different perspective.
I have
been watching videos about a wide range of topics from the criminal justice
system, to the anti-trafficking movement (which I wholeheartedly support, to
areas of Occupational Therapy.
One talk
which I found particularly interesting and moving is linked below. It is by a
lady called
Faith Jegede and is titled: What I’ve learned
from my autistic brothers. I hope you can find the time to watch it.
Happy TED exploring people, and happy OTuesday!
Kate
