Playing to Learn

I love this Prezi slide show. Really stimulating content, addictive presentation and a great example of a creative use of the awesome Prezi software which is easier to use than pen and paper and much more fun!

To start click play arrow. Then control slideshow by clicking on Forward and Back buttons, or use Page Up and Page Down on your keyboard. By experimenting with the controls, you can also make the slide show full screen. Autoplay is painfully slow and not recommended unless you have nothing else to do with your life.

Social Entrepreneurs Are Changing The World

Adrian Gilpin — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 12:27:06 +0000

The world is changing.

Some people have made a great mess of things, even if they didn't mean to.

It is easy to hunt down people and organisations to blame but this is not an approach that will create anything new.

Enterprise is wounded, much of it fatally. However, there is an emergence of people with new values and a new vision. They are finding new ways to be. Enterprise has caused considerable damage to the planet and to people's lives. Enterprise must now become a force for good, not growth.

Kiran Bir Sethi makes one of the humblest and most important TED Talks since TED began.

There is no good reason why this initiative should not fundamentally change the future.
