TED-Ed has tons of short video lessons on a wide range of topics.
You can watch anything from “Why women’s clothing sizes don’t make sense” to “Are you a giver or taker“.
I was interested in learning “Why do airlines sell too many tickets?” after having been denied boarding some years ago due to a lack of space on a plane to Malta.

It’s not so difficult when you know how!
For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals. Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination. We learned to talk. We learned to listen. Speech has allowed the communication of ideas, enabling human beings to work together to build the impossible. Mankind’s greatest achievements have come about by talking, and its greatest failures by not talking. It doesn’t have to be like this. Our greatest hopes could become reality in the future. With the technology at our disposal, the possibilities are unbounded. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking.
Stephen Hawking
Stephen Hawking’s quotation is a powerful reminder of how important open and honest communication is to achieving our goals and building strong relationships.
By continuing to talk, listen, and work together, we can unlock the full power of the human mind and build a better future together.

Or as American author Dr. Seuss might have said:
“So come on, come on, don’t be shy
Let’s play BeanBeanBean, let’s give it a try
Improving our English, helping those in need
It’s a win-win situation indeed!”
