TED Talks at FSQL 2015
/TED Talks are one of our favourite ways to stay curious. We run the Firodia School Quiz League in Pune, India, which consists of 5 quizzes on different themes. Each quiz has a 30-45 min break between the written preliminary and the stage finals, and we made good use of it by playing some TED talks for participants to watch, learn from, enjoy, and be inspired. Here's our playlist:
Quiz 1: History and Heritage
The History of Our World in 18 Minutes - David Christian
Quiz 2: Sports
The rise of cricket, the rise of India - Harsha Bhogle
Quiz 3: Science & Technology
Optical illusions show how we see - Beau Lotto
Underwater Astonishments - David Gallo
Quiz 4: Travel & Geography
Magical houses, made of bamboo - Ellora Hardy
Quiz 5: Entertainment & Culture
My rise to yo-yo mastery - BLACK
Hack a banana, make a keyboard - Jay Silver
