Daniel Pink - TED Talk #3
We need a motive to do something is what I took away from this video. Without motive we will lose interest and stop working on what we were doing. When he needed to express an important component of his topic, he emphasized the word or the phrase. He used good descriptors to paint pictures for the audience and he used examples from the outside world to relate his topic to his audience. He used mainly vocal presentation to present his ideas. He used a few visual presentation items but not many. This video matters because it talked about how we need motive to do what we do. I agree. We do everything either because we have to or we get a reward for doing it. It connects to me personally because I need motive to do what I do, and this helped me realize that I can succeed if I find a motive for everything I need to do. It connects to the world because when other people need to get important things done they can find a motive as well. Without a motive or reward, everyone would leave the less entertaining tasks but maybe important tasks unfinished.

Pete Alcorn - TED Talk #2
From this video I take away that our population will reach a climax and then decline. The world will be in for a change. Pete Alcorn enunciated his words well which helped his audience better understand what he was saying. His presentation style was visual and verbal. He spoke to his audience and accompanied his words with pictures. The fact that the world is about to reach another climax and will change is what makes this video matter. It connects to me personally because I will be living in the time when the change is made and I will need to adapt. It connects to education because new jobs will need to be learned so that the change in population does not effect commerce and production of goods. It connects to the world because this change will effect the entire world not just a single nation. He used his hands to help tell the story. He used constant movement to keep the audience interested.

SirKenRobinson - TED Talk #1
He incorporated humor into his talk while remaining on subject which kept the audience engaged. He referenced his life and others lives to relate his topic to the audience. The audience loved his sense of humor. He enunciated when he needed to emphesize a point. He didn't use any powerpoint or other visual form of presenting his presentation.
