Theme: Discovering new perspectives

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized (subject to certain rules and regulations).

Aleksandra Rodziewicz

Student

Hi! My name is Aleksandra Rodziewicz and I'm a Pre-DP2 student at 2slo. I consider myself a multipotentialite, and fields ranging from physics, as well as neuroscience to classic literature spark my interest. Overall, in my educational journey, I focus on understanding the world around me, and my TEDx talk aims at just that. In my spare time, I'm most keen on going for long walks with my dad, sculpting cats out of air dry clay, reading, and crocheting hats.

Mikołaj Makosz

Student

Hello, I'm Mikołaj Makosz, a 2slo IB student who has a deep passion for football. As a child, I had a dream of becoming a professional football player, but I quickly realized that I was not naturally gifted in the sport. Despite this setback, I refused to let go of my love for football. Instead, I took the initiative to create a community of like-minded individuals who shared my passion for the sport. I began organizing tournaments for students and expanding my social media accounts to reach a wider audience. Through my journey, I have learned that mistakes can be valuable experiences that help you learn and grow. Every setback can present an opportunity for improvement, and I want to share this belief with you.

Tini Dudek

Student

Hi! I’m Tini, I go to Liceum w Chmurze and I attend an extra IGCSE course at The British Online School. I want to become a secondary school English and special educational needs teacher in the UK. As a person with special educational needs, I experienced a huge lack of empathy and knowledge in teachers' environments especially when it comes to neurodivergent students like me. I want to spread awareness about neurodiversity and help people like me later in life. Besides my studies I love reading Alice Oseman’s books, cuddles, listening to music, and drinking tea while lying under a weighted blanket :))

Uliana Bachtizina

Student

We're in hot water with climate change (no pun intended); and since conventional methods such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions and using renewable energy don't work, it's time to think about new solutions. That's where quantum physics comes in. This field of science explores the behavior of matter and energy at the atomic and subatomic level, and it has the potential to revolutionize technologies that can mitigate the effects of climate change.
