Talk show From Ted




      Today I watched a talk show by Tony Fadell. The title is ‘The first secret of great design.’ I was thinking could I  have great design after watching the video from his talk. However, I didn’t expect this talk affect my mind so much. It also inspired me how should I learn.

      Tony said human’s brain can’t remember every thing in once. Therefore the brain will keep saving one kind of information so that the brain can remember it by habituation and get more spaces to learn new things. Then, I understand why I can’t learn new vocabularies effectively.  When I studying, I like to put all information together and try to put them once in my mind. That made my brain overloaded and couldn’t remember them. Maybe I should learn new thing more slowly.


       However, habituation also makes people ignore the problems. They think the problems are the part of the world. Tony said sometimes we need to step back to look at the problem so we can see the whole body of it. And that is how people start gets great ideas of the product design.

  1. How wonderful to hear that you were inspired by this talk! I find many of the Ted talks inspiring and motivational. It is also good to see how you are linking this to strategies for learning especially new vocabulary.
