Carol Dweck
Before this assignment I have, honestly/sadly, never heard of Carol Dweck or the growth mindset before. And I learned about the growth mind set topic from the topic for today and Ted talk on the class wiki. I see myself on the spectrum I feel like somewhere in the middle. This is because when I was younger I, somewhat, remember being praised for being smart. But I like to feel like that I would have chosen the challenge after being praised. And now I am to the point where I am doing the work for a grade, praise or no praise from an outside source just a grade. I have learned about my learning here at OU is that I need a set routine for being dedicated to my homework. Including a specific place, somewhat time of day (depends on work), and what I have around me. I think that I would be interested in learning more about the growth mindset, because I have 2 young nephews that are just starting out in school. One is in the first grade and the youngest is in pre-k.

This is one of the videos from our class wiki that I watched on the Growth mindset. I liked the illustrations with it because they are Harry Potter themed and I am always a fan of Harry Potter. I liked how they used two of the houses to represent the two sides of this idea.
