Marissa Sauer- TED Talks Presentation
1.
2. Ben Saunders
is an explorer. He was
the youngest person to
ski to the North Pole.
3. In Ben’s talk, “Why even bother leaving the house?”,
he addresses the fact that many people would rather
observe other peoples adventures than go out and
have their own.
4. Ben also states that many people think that
everything has already been done, and they use
that as an excuse to stay indoors and watch
others discover the world.
5. His main idea is that everyone should
still get out and explore. He says that
everyone should thoroughly enjoy the
tiny amount of life we are given.
6. “To experience, to engage, to
endeavor, rather than to watch and
to wonder — that's where the real
meat of life is to be found.”
7. Ben captures the audiences attention by
beginning with a question. He holds their
attention by using personal stories, and relating
it back to the audience. He concludes his speech
with just a taste of humor, leaving a very nice
impression on the viewer.
8. Dynamism: 4/5
Ben is quite dynamic, but I
believe that he could
engage the audience just a
bit more.
9. Ben followed the TED
commandments by dreaming
big. He set out to explore in an
age that doesn’t promote
exploring for it’s own sake.
10. From watching Ben’s talk, I
have learned that using
personal anecdotes works
very well to convey a
message.
11. Ben and Ken Robinson are
similar in the fact that they
both use humor and
personal stories. Ken uses
stories about his children
and Ben uses stories of his
explorations.
12. Ken seems to keep the mood a
bit lighter, and more
humorous. Although Ben also
uses humor, he keeps his talk a
bit more serious.
13. Ken also uses a more
visual approach
during this talk.
14. The best tip I have come
up with from watching
these TED talks is that
using humor helps capture
your audience. A shared
laugh or smile will
resonate with any listener
and help them to
remember your
presentation.
15. During future speeches, I will try to
use more personal stories to better
relate to the audience.
