- 17:34Learning in the 2030s: The Next Era of Education | Rachel Long | TEDxMcMasterUIn a world where knowledge is abundant, the real challenge isn't what we know, but how we use it. Traditional learning models focus on acquiring information, but the future belongs to those who can structure, apply, and adapt knowledge dynamically. This talk explores the shift from knowing to doing, the rise of collective intelligence, and how individuals can hack learning systems to stay ahead. It invites listeners to rethink how they learn; not just to keep up, but to lead. Rachel Long is an education researcher, strategist, and corporate learning designer. As a Renaissance Award Scholar, she studied learning systems at ten of the world’s top universities and taught in classrooms across Australia and the United Kingdom. She currently works for a sustainability-focused tech company where she helps professionals build adaptable, future-ready skill sets. Rachel's talk introduces the idea of becoming a "knowledge architect"—someone who not only acquires information but knows how to apply and organize it to solve real-world challenges.

- 4:35Read. Watch. Ask. | Tina Yang | TEDxArbutus Ridge YouthThese were the words my mother told me before I left for my trip to Peru last year, not the typical warnings like, "Oh, stay with someone," or "keep your phone charged," or "call me every hour". It's just read, watch, ask. I’m currently a Grade 11 student at WVSS. I like to ski, dance competitively, and play golf. I’m really passionate about dance—I do hip hop, K-pop, and contemporary, and I’m also the captain of our dance crew. I enjoy working as a team and expressing myself through movement. When I’m alone, I like to listen to music. Some of my favorite artists are Ye West, Summer Walker, and Sexyy Redd. Music helps me relax and reflect. I also love matcha lattes—they're my go-to drink and always put me in a good mood.
