What is TED-Talks

TED (Technology, Entertainment, and Design) is a non-profit

organization that aims to dedicate, educate and spread ideas by

short presentations and talks in a way that is easily accessible and
provides impressions and messages to the society (TED, 2019).

Furthermore, TED-talks is TED is a streaming video with the duration

approximately 18 minutes or more which presents various kinds of

great ideas from world scientists, researchers, leaders, artists and

designers who are worthy of being displayed on the TED-talks stage
to convey and spread ideas through public speaking presentation

(TED, 2019).

TED-Talks can be accessed on the TED website which is freely

various social media sites such as YouTube, Netflix, Facebook, LinkdIn

(Hanna & Wigmore, 2022). Apart from that, there is also TEDx Talks.

TEDx Talks is a local event similar to TED-talks which is pioneered and

organized by volunteers around the world. In contrast to TED-talks,
TEDX Talks are held in a smaller audience and are independent (TED,

n.d.; TEDx, n.d.)
