We are already two days through our journey through World History and I hope that everyone is enjoying getting to know everyone as much as I am enjoying getting to know y'all.
Today in class, we discussed how the brain is a muscle. Just like your biceps or calves or any other muscle, your brain becomes stronger when you challenge it with tougher material. We also learned that this idea of you being able to strengthen your abilities is known as the growth mindset. This idea that you are not stuck with whatever ability you are born with and that you can develop your talents over time is the central idea that this class is built on.
I hope that everyone gets a good night's rest and I look forward to seeing everyone back here tomorrow!
