The Fault in our Memories | Sowad Karim | Bx Science

Do we really remember everything to the finest detail? Are we sure that everything in a certain event happened exactly the way it happened? Sowad Karim is here to explain otherwise in this intriguing TED Talk about memories and how we subconsciously alter them to better fit them.

TED-Ed Clubs aims to introduce a school-friendly framework that supports students in meeting regularly to discuss, pursue and present their big ideas in the form of short TED-like presentations. We hope to celebrate exceptional student ideas by potentially featuring them at the annual TEDYouth conference and the TEDxYouth events.

This presentation was completed by participating in a TED-Ed Club and produced independently of the TED Conferences. Only Facilitators (teachers, counselors, administrators, or adults over the age of 18) who have received approval to lead a TED-Ed Club are able to upload TED-Ed Club presentations on behalf of their students.
