從標籤到品牌——不斷實驗的我/My everlasting experiment | 曾允斌 TSENG, YUN BIN | TEDxMingdao HS Youth
在家自學,也就是是正式申請個人實驗教育。人數極少的自學生,相對於體制內的主流多數學生,很神秘,也常被貼標籤。小學在家自學,國中才回到體制私中的我,先跟著媽媽摸索如何自學,同時也努力對抗、掙脫標籤;接著來到夢想中的私中適應體制學習,改由爸爸陪著重定義自學標籤。這是一段我和自學標籤如何相處的故事:我和標籤在衝突後和解,現在,正努力學著與他攜手並進。自學是形式,更是能力;標籤是印記,也可以是LOGO!我希望聽者從我的故事看見:每個人都有被貼標籤的時候,但我們可以選擇讓它限制自己,或讓它成為前進的徽章。Homeschooling — officially known as applying for Individual Experimental Education — is rare. With so few of us compared to the crowds in traditional schools, homeschoolers often seem mysterious and easy to label. I was homeschooled through elementary school, then joined a private junior high later on. At first, I learned alongside my mom, figuring out how to self-study while trying hard to shake off those labels. Then, when I stepped into my dream private school, my dad helped me redefine what being “a homeschooler” could mean. This is the story of me and my label — how we fought, made peace, and now walk forward together. Homeschooling isn’t just a system, it’s a skill; a label isn’t only a stigma, it can be a badge.What I hope listeners take away is this: we all carry labels, but we can choose whether they confine us or become a badge that pushes us forward.
我是幼兒園到小六都在家自學,每週回學區小學上幾堂課,國一才開始全日學校生活與體制學習的國二生。我努力適應著,從自學轉換成上學,以前是維持自己節奏自轉,現在是有秩序地加入公轉。From kindergarten through sixth grade, I was homeschooled, attending a few classes each week at my local elementary school. It wasn’t until my first year of junior high that I began a full-time school life within the formal education system. Now, as a second-year student, I’m working hard to adapt — transitioning from self-directed learning to structured schooling. In the past, I spun on my own axis; now, I’m learning to orbit in harmony with others.

- 10:54Why Random Acts of Kindness Aren't Enough (And What to Do Instead) | Ken Williams | TEDxJersey CityA single act of kindness can spark a brief feel-good moment—but lasting impact requires intention. The Chocolate Cake Phenomenon transforms kindness into a system: deliberately scheduling time to truly notice others and share generosity in meaningful ways. Practiced for nearly 15 years, this simple approach has created powerful ripple effects—deepening relationships, strengthening communities, and proving that when kindness is intentional, everyone benefits, including ourselves. Ken Williams is a Career Clarity Coach, Get Unstuck Expert, and the creator of the Leader Success Accelerator, where he helps mid-career professionals break out of career limbo and rediscover what truly lights them up. He’s the author of several books on deepening personal relationships and on setting better goals. Surprisingly, he’s also the guy who has personally baked and shared almost 9,000 chocolate cakes! What started as sharing leftover dessert has become a weekly system of building connection in a disconnected world. Married to the same woman for 35 years (in a row!), he’s the father of five pretty wonderful children, and grandfather of one perfect grandson, And whether he’s coaching burned-out managers or handing out dessert, Ken’s on a mission to help people stop drifting and start living on purpose—one slice at a time.
