i'm watching this thinking, is she gonna tell me i dont have grit
ok now she's talking about motivation and psychological perspectives, and i'm listening a bit more.
her smile stays the same, why is this making her less convincing?
Ohhh she is a researcher. she has stuff to promote.
uh oh, this thing is about growth mindset. this idea smells like group think to me. learning about the brain and how it grows when we face challenges we can change our mind about failure being a permanent thing. i think i've heard and read these things before, but in the context of language learning, and things were so technoutopian.
