電気通信大学 AE2Y II: Final project supporting links

Hello!



How are you? Today I have some TED Talk links that connect to our writing project themes for all of you. 

Video links

Remember that you are taking your written abstract topic and now developing a fuller paper with it. These TED Talks may bring some key examples and details to your topics that can add more and help you to develop your compositional writing.

Do not limit yourself to these TED Talks. There may be more examples on the TED website, plus other websites as well, that you can explore. The more original research that you can do the better! But these are some good examples that you may find interesting and informative.


Check out any of the following links:


1. Gary Kovacs – Tracking our online trackers (2012.2) - see the video at this link

2. Elza Dunkels – Internet safety for children (2010.4) - see the video at this link

3. Laura Galante – How (and why) Russia hacked the US election (2017.5) - see the video at this link

4. Olga Yurkova – Inside the fight against Russia’s fake news empire (2018.4) - see the video at this link.

5. Tamas Kocsis – The case for a decentralized internet (2018.11) - see the video at

6. Andrea Difilippo – Some doors aren’t meant to be closed: Parenting in cyberspace (2017.12) - see the video at this link.

Important notes:
TED Talks #1, 2, 3, and 6 all have Japanese subtitles and written transcripts if you need them. #4 and 5 do not have Japanese support - but the topics connect with what many of you are doing, so they may still be very useful for you. 

If you check these two TED Talks out, especially take your time with them - stop the video as many times as you need. 

I hope these links help you. Of course, at any time you can do your own research - I recommend that you do - there are many sites in both English and Japanese you can find that connect to your topics and interests. 

Good luck! Take care!
