I’m half British, half South African. Please check out my profile for more information about me in Taiwan at: www.myu.com.tw [ID no.: 6903]. Here is the information about the discussion group I’ve invited you to based on www.ted.com: Purpose of the discussion group To discuss in detail the transcripts of talks given by the world's most fascinating thinkers and doers because the power of ideas changes attitudes, lives and ultimately, the world. These talks offer free knowledge and inspiration from the world's most inspired thinkers, and an opportunity for the community to engage with ideas and each other. People who participate in these talks seek a deeper understanding of the world with the purpose to turn that understanding into a better future for all mankind. These speakers come from every discipline and culture – their common purpose is to spark deep conversation and connections. How the group will work: People will be divided into small groups of 3 to discuss the given topic. Each week group members will rotate to different groups [of 3]. This enables greater / faster improvement in English language proficiency and confidence to speak/express opinions. I will facilitate all groups to ensure people get an equal amount of speaking time. First topic of the discussion group: Stefana Broadbent: How the internet enables intimacy: http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/stefana_broadbent_how_the_internet_enables_intimacy.html The number of people attending is limited Date and time of the first discussion group Friday 11th December 7.15pm – 9.15pm Venue: A restaurant off Shida Road [Taipower Building MRT station exit 3]. I will give details to people who confirm their attendance. Cost: NTD500 [at this venue, it includes a drink, e.g. refillable tea Please feel free to pass this on to other people who you think may be interested in joining what promises to be a wonderful discussion group. Broader directives of the Group: Vision: To create an opportunity for people to debate in-depth topics of interest; to rekindle our passion to learn, and to connect great people with great ideas. Mission: To inspire hope in what’s possible. Goal: To bring people together to discuss these fascinating, inspiring talks on a weekly basis. Main strategy: Participants will choose a talk to discuss every two weeks.
