Week 13EC: Growth Mindset: A Growth Mindset Fuels Creativity in Youth

A Growth Mindset Fuels Creativity in Youth

The author expands upon Carol Dweck's growth mindset. There are five ways that the growth mindset can be expanded upon in someone who is learning how to be in a growth mindset.

I would be interested in learning more about living in a human virtual world. I had no previous knowledge about embracing your mistakes and bowing to them.

Introduction to Casey Buller not Bueller

Hi, my name is Casey Buller. I am currently a fourth year and graduate this spring! My major is Chemical Biosciences with a minor in Religious Studies.

There is nothing like camping and being outdoors away from all the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Heaven is truly a place on earth when you're outdoors.  This is a picture of Hallett Peak and Dream Lake. (Hallett Peak and Dream Lake: NPS ) From my trip to NYC over the summer, Central Park was one my favorite places. It was amazing to me that in such an active city, there were still places that you could go that made you feel like you weren't in the city. It was also cool to see so many people taking advantage of the public space doing all sorts of activities. Whenever I go back to NYC, Central Park will be a definite go to place to visit again. Here is one of the many pictures that I took of Central Park.
