II; he recorded a video of himself discussing the topic that a lot of humans as themselves from time too time… “Can animals think or feel?” (Safina, Carl. "What are animals thinking and feeling?"

and Keith E. Davis’ essay: “From Acts to Dispositions: The Attribution Process in Person Perception”, and watching Dan Gilbert’s Ted talks, I came across a few ideas that I’ve never thought of before, and in addition to that, I acquired new insights from them, most especially Gilbert’s Ted talks. I also found relating themes between Jones and Davis’ essay and Gilbert’s Ted talk: “The surprising science of happiness” (2004), “Why we make bad decisions” (2005) and “The psychology of your future self

In one of the most watched Ted talk videos, “The Key To Success- Grit,” recorded in May 9 2013, the speaker Angela Lee Duckworth explains how the strongest performers in their fields were typically not the ones with the highest IQ’s, but the ones with the most amount of Grit. What is that? Angela defines Grit to be the passion and perseverance for a long-term goal and to go through with it with no quitting. She then goes on and talks about the studies and their results relating to pure Grit being

Susan Cain’s Quiet argues for the power of introverts. In her book, introverts are the main subject of her book. Who are introverts? What makes them different? Those where the main questions I had while reading this book. In this book Susan Cain tells her experience being an introvert, how she once puked before a presentation, she also tells the story of other introverts, how they maintained being introverts in a world filled with extroverts that can do what for introverts seems impossible without

Looks aren’t Everything. Believe Me, I am a Model 1. Three things I learned from Cameron Russell’s TED Talk is that looks are deceiving, people still judge based on someone’s skin color or beauty, and how even if someone looks like the most confident, pretty, rich, or happy person out there, that may not always the case. Additionally, from the speaker’s five main points, the first main point, “how do you become a model?” illustrates being named a “model” is something very difficult to become because

whether rich or poor, people who give to charity are happier. Perceived happiness increases, even more, when we see the impact of our gift has on someone. --According to Tony Robbins, writer at Robbins Research Organization, Inc. Michael Norton, the TED Talk speaker, discussed “How to Buy Happiness.” Norton is a professor of business administration at Harvard Business School; he has also studied psychology.

For this assignment, I chose to watch a Ted Talk that focused on the importance of understanding differences. It is entitled Love No Matter What and is the culmination of years of research done by Andrew Solomon. I chose this Ted Talk because I thought it would be interesting to hear about different lived experiences that people have endured. One of the huge ideas I have learned throughout this leadership course and all our topics and conversation is that we all have different lived experiences

Brene Brown, a researcher in social interactions, takes an unexpected perspective in her ted talk called “The Power of Vulnerability”. She starts out her speech by telling a joke and explaining her education and experience in social work. A quote her professor put on the board led her to research the connection among people. However, this led to many other things such as shame, fear, and the most prominent factor, vulnerability. She realized that for connection to occur we must be seen completely

it. The “Grit: the Power of Passion and Perseverance.” Ted Talk video was extremely helpful for my research since it gave me numerous amounts of examples of how the main thing that distinguishes kids for who they are is perseverance. I found out that one’s intelligence quality is not determined by their test scores, but rather it is determined by how they improve on making those test scores the best they can be.

TED Talk Summative Reflection The beginning of a presentation is what must grab the audience’s attention and tell them what’s about to happen. I think I succeeded in informing my audience, but definitely could have improved the interest factor of my video. My introduction is a simple title animation going into my presentation, and my introduction is a very basic overview of what my presentation will be covering.
