Helping families choose private schools and summer camps
TEDxIB@York is back – with passion, purpose and perspective. From a high-profile advocate for the wrongly convicted to an award-winning underwater film-maker, a fresh line-up of innovative minds gave their own TEDx talks today. Read Our Kids’ live-blog of the event.
March 17th is St. Patrick’s Day, so learn more about what the symbols and traditions of this special holiday really mean, and how to incorporate them into your family’s festivities!
But what was different about this TEDx was that of those guests, about two hundred were International Baccalaureate students from around the world. These high school students, who took part in their own version of TEDx Idol at The York School’s Speak Out Day on Nov. 10, are the idea-makers of the future, and revealed their own plans on how to improve the world.
Our Kids was lucky enough to be present at both events to witness the inspiration first-hand, and share them through our live coverage. But after more than a week of reflection, here are three exceptional student speakers from Speak Out Day, with their thoughts on the TEDx experience and the ideas they want to spread.
Innovative speakers took the spotlight at the TEDxIBYork conference in Toronto, challenging preconceived notions and opening minds to the complex realities of the countries, issues and people we thought we knew.
Over two days, TEDxIBYork asked “What makes the world tick? How can it be changed for the better?” We tweeted both of these events LIVE, right here on the Our Kids Blog.
For the first time ever, IB students and adults full of ideas, hopes and dreams will gather at the TEDxIBYork conference not-for-profit event at the Ontario Science Centre in Toronto on Nov. 11.
