Growth mindset

Growth mindset in students is very important. This short video will get you started https://www.ted.com/talks/carol_dweck_the_power_of_believing_that_you_can_improve. growth mindset can help students through goals, achievements and so on.

¨A growth mindset isn’t just about effort.Perhaps the most common misconception is simply equating the growth mindset with effort. Certainly, effort is key for students’ achievement, but it’s not the only thing. Students need to try new strategies and seek input from others when they’re stuck. They need this repertoire of approaches—not just sheer effort—to learn and improve.¨ Growth effort isn´t all about effort but a lot comes with effort. growth mindset is more about achieving your goals and getting the fixed mind set. 

Growth mindset has helped me individually because back this summer when i was getting my college stuff set up i did not have all of my things ready for my future and goals. i had to get the mindset that it was time to strap down and get my stuff together and get the fixed mindset.
in conclusion Carol Dweck explained that growth mindset is not all about effort but effort plays a big role, and explained that it could boost their achievements and intelligence, said here in the text 
¨We found that students’ mindsets—how they perceive their abilities—played a key role in their motivation and achievement, and we found that if we changed students’ mindsets, we could boost their achievement. More precisely, students who believed their intelligence could be developed (a growth mindset) outperformed those who believed their intelligence was fixed (a fixed mindset).¨ 

All together growth mindset can help with intelligence and achievements as well as boost them.

beetles

Beetles are insects that can take over your house if your not careful, if you see that you have beetles in your house you need to quickly get a hold of someone who can take care of them or yourself needs to take care of them.
Beetles will take over ones house if the house owner does not take care of them quickly. beetles can be taken care of easily by calling a termite specialist or someone who sprays and lays out poison for beetles, ants, etc.
But there is one such type of beetle that actually helps a person, more such as a farmer but still helps humans.  The asian lady beetle helps control the pest that try to take over crop,

hackers

Hackers in general need to be stopped and taken care of, hackers are getting more and more populated these days its unreal. i feel as if thats one reason we have so much terrorist stuff going on is because of hackers as well as other substances, but hackers are helping them get stuff and leaking info to terrorist.

in the article, http://theweek.com/articles/730439/have-almost-certainly-been-hacked it simply explains about hackers and what they are doing. i am here to write about my thoughts on hackers, hackers should be stopped and when we know who is hacking we need to get them and fine them or put them in jail, simple as that becuase they are somewhat breaking the law with the things they are doing.

alot of people in  the U.S have been hacked, in the article it states ¨The recent data breach at Equifax, one of the three major credit reporting agencies, exposed the personal information of more than 145 million Americans, including Social Security numbers, driver's license data, birth dates, and addresses. As many as 75 percent of U.S. adults with a credit score may have been victimized.¨
that is alot of people to be victimized by hackers and they need to be stopped. these hackers are getting away with things and leaking things that dont need to be said or leaked. 

in conclusion  its time we do something about these hackers and what all they are getting away with, its time to stop them and put them behind bars. If we dont things could get very bad, for example if we had a war plan and someone hacked into it and got it and showed it top the enemy then they would know what all we are doing and where we are and what all we have. Its time to stop the hackers

isis

Isis is a very large and terrible terrorist group that has done many bad things. Therefore that doesnt mean the U.S cant stop them, the U.S back forces have said that rappa, Isis capital has been captured.

although isis is still out there and doing terrible things i believe that the U.S can take them, it will be hard but it can be done very well. isis has been falling since last july when in the article i was reading stated  ´´With the fall of Raqqa, the Islamic State has lost the two most important cities of its self-declared caliphate in three months. It was pushed out of Mosul in July, and now holds only a fraction of the territory it once controlled.´´  
 if we take over their land and parts slowly and time by time we will knock them down and capture them, i belive it very strongly. it will take lots of hard work and commitment but we will get it done. 

In  conclusion in the article it stated “The city is in ruins; it needs time,” he said. “And it needs prospects that are beyond ours, our energy.” Just providing bread to areas retaken from the Islamic State was stretching the council’s capacity, he said.´´ 
although isis and rappa is still out there i believe we will get the job done sooner or later
