Growth Mindset Challenges and Learning Challenges
Back in the Week 1 Orientation, you did a blog post about Growth Mindset and I also mentioned the Learning by H.E.A.R.T. topics. That Week 1 assignment was something I asked everyone to complete, and now for the rest of the semester, these are optional extra credit assignments: there is a Growth Mindset option each week, and also a Learning by H.E.A.R.T. option.
You can do one or both each week if you want, and I hope you will give them a try! School can be really stressful with a lot of focus on grades and tests that distract you from the big picture. These options are meant to give you a chance to think about your education and well-being beyond just grades and tests. Each time you do this option, you will complete a “challenge” that you choose. Some of the challenges are one-time challenges, while others are challenges that you can repeat to keep on learning more, doing them every week if you want.
Blog Post. For each challenge, you will end up with a blog post. What goes in the blog post each time depends on the specific challenge, but you will have an image and information each time. For Growth Mindset challenge posts, include “Growth Mindset” somewhere in the post title and use it as the post label; for Learning by H.E.A.R.T. challenges use “Learning Challenge” somewhere in the post title and as the post label.

Challenges make you discover things about yourself
that you never really knew. They’re what make you stretch …
what make you go beyond the norm.
