Growth Mindset W9: "Learning from other students" Challenge 3


When it comes to having a growth mindset I think that I have one but it all depends on the situation. While reading the different quotes from the students two of them stood out to me the most. The first one was “I often fall into the trap of saying good job, awesome when reviewing people's work. It used to be a game in high school to see who could critique "you put the wrong date" so that we could have our one correction out of the way. I definitely will work on being more specific with feedback, as I know how much I dislike non-specific feedback”. This quote stood out to me because I find myself doing this exact same thing in which I don't take the time to actually give someone the right feedback so they will just get service feedback. Sometimes I feel as if my feedback may be too critical or harsh in which I just barely make any comments do their work but I do know that by doing this it doesn't help the other person. The second quote that I had found very interesting said “Trying new things and exploring new paths is the only way to true growth, and I intend on growing into my best and most well-rounded self I can”. I chose this one because I completely agree with it I think that when you do go to try new things and explore new places that you become a different person and the world will shape you how you see it. To be honest I want to move to another country  in a couple of years and I think by me integrating myself in a new culture and learning their language that it will help me understand other people better end help me understand myself. I think I can apply these two quotes in my daily life in general because both of them heavily revolve around me I believe so so if I just apply these I think that I will become a better person.

Project 2

In the stories “ The Creation” and “ Coyote Cooks his Daughter”  there is a big theme of trust that is portrayed in both stories. I feel that both show a great amount of trust between friendship and family. “The Creation” is about a couple of friends Earthmaker, Coyote, and Meadowlark who go on a journey creating Earth. On this journey they all help each other and trust each other's decisions when it comes to making the planet. Now in “ Coyote Eats his Daughter” it's  about how a daughter is eaten by her own father. Trust is the most important thing between any relationship if you can't trust someone then you don't have any stability of Truth to rely on in which both of these stories uses a great amount of theme and tone to discuss the ways of how trust can be looked upon. The tone of “The Creation”  is very friendly because you have these friends who go all around trying to create land  and they're doing it together. In the story tone helps set the theme of ...

Time Strategies

When it comes to time management strategies I always think ahead. Like some people will wait till the last minute and cram everything in just to make the deadline. Me on the other hand I will cram everything in when I first get the assigned so that I'm home free until the next assignment needs to be turned in or is assigned. So for example if an assignment is due on Friday I'm going to do all the work on Monday and Tuesday so that the rest of the week I don't have to stress about getting my work done on time. My schedule is pretty tight this semester because I'm taking four classes which are 12 units and I do have work on the sidelines. I do like the weekly calendar because it lets you know ahead of time  when something is due. Also love how all the week's worth of homework and projects we're going to do is already laid out so it's like you can work ahead and get everything done early. As for the extra credit part I don't think I'm going to need to d...
