TEDx is a program of
local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like
experience. TED means Technology, Entertainment and Design. At a TEDx event,
TED Talks 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.
I really
excited by watching TEDx Talks Video though only watching through Youtube. I can
learn everything (ideas, thoughts or even how and what to do) from local famous people
from variety background. Let us watch Anies Baswedan’s Talk for example. He
would like to introduce an idea (and now it has been a real) namely “Indonesia Mengajar”. It is a program
for those (the students) who have good academic & leadership achievements to do something by
teaching for a year an elementary schools in a remote area. By joining at “Indonesia
Mengajar” he hopes the students would have world class competence but still have a grass root
experience. This program is fully appreciated by government, education practice
and students around Indonesia.
Another good
presentation from TEDx is presented by Enda Nasution. He is one of Indonesian
Blogger, owner of www.enda.goblogmedia.com.
Enda fluently presented about social media booming which completed by data and
factual theme. This is interesting. Because, according to him, Indonesia is the
top of three in user of social media. You should watch their presentation on
Youtube for further.
So, by
watching some people presenting their idea, I draw a conclusion : we can do
like they do, and we have to dream by not only dream but also doing, practicing
and then delivering a dream and sooner make it happen. Come on!
