Speak to Start | Mirei Ikushima | TEDxYouth@MIS |
|
The main focus of the talk is education, culture, and presentations. From my experience of running a presentation event in Tokyo, which was based on Western education, I came to realise how culture is deeply intertwined with education.
I have a deep interest in education and cultural differences, which arose from my upbringing. I have spent 10 years of my childhood in Europe and the British education, and 7 years in Japan and the national education before entering the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. Through the experience of spending time in two distinct cultures, I have developed my own way of interpreting the difference between English and Japanese education. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx |
