TED Talk

In my course at Full Sail University, I am developing a business plan named “VolunTripper.” The product of this business plan is a package tour that includes volunteer working related with sports development in developing countries. I believe that playing sports can help children to develop their humanities and communication skills. To prove my opinion makes sense, I was looking for a speech on TED.com that talked about the importance of sports. I chose an interesting speech about educating children by Gever Tulley. The main topic of this speech was not sports, but this speech showed a relationship between the physical activity and educating children.
