Resource talk:How to organize a TEDx event on your campus
As an avid listener to TEDTalks podcasts, I am amazed that a student-led initiative brought a TEDx event to the university setting. Spoken word is very powerful, and to add to the author's point there is benefit to having shorter talks that leave the audience contemplating the mental stimulation they experienced instead of dosing off during a longer deliberation. I would be interested to see how the format of a TEDx Talk on campus would change amidst a global pandemic.
