TED-Ed: Questions No One Knows The Answers To

Screenshot 2014-09-07 15.42.48

It’s September and school is back in session, so we are going to change gears on today’s installment of TED Talk Tuesdays. Have you heard of TED-Ed? It’s an extension of TED’s mission of spreading great ideas, where you will find a huge collection of educational videos, many of which are collaborations between educators and animators.

While all TED talks certainly raise discussion amongst viewers, not all have a definitive answer. In fact, today’s TED Talk is all about the questions no one knows the answer to. Curator Chris Anderson shares his boyhood obsession with us, but I think it’s safe to say many of us shared the same curiosities growing up. I can’t say there is not one question he brings up that I hadn’t thought of before. Watch the video and tell me if you agree:

Yes I know…it’s a very childish video. But these questions are perplexing and inspiring because they remain unanswered, whether you thought about it 20 years ago or thought about it just last week. At the end of the video there are options to explore two more unanswered questions which ought to get your brain spinning. When you are done, head over to TED-Ed and dig a little deeper with additional resources to explore. Stay curious my friends!
