1) The TED organization is about spreading ideas.
2) The purpose of the website is to bring people from the 3 worlds together. The functionality of the website supports that because it shows ideas from all 3 of the worlds.
3) I think we would pick technology, entertainment, and design because as engineers, those would seem the most interesting to us.
4) One video that I would pick would be How I taught rate to sniff out land mines because as a problem solver, he solves how to detect land mines without the use of technology which is very interesting. I would also pick How I built a toaster from scratch because as a problem solver, if you needed a toaster, you could just make one. I would also choose the Rise of Personal Robots because as an engineer, creating the robot could help a lot of old people if you were trying to come up with something to help them with.

6) I could get involved with this by studying animals and animals' behaviors in college.
Good job figuring out how to embed the video on your post.
ReplyDeleteYou answer the questions but share a tiny bit more insight on them. They don't need to be long, but do let us know a bit of the "why". Why would you pick those topics? Why would studying animal behavior help a person get into this field?
