    Summary: In the article “Brainology”, Dweck talk about two types of attitudes or mindsets. The two types are a growth mindset and a fixed mindset. Students with a growth mindset tended to get up again from setbacks and continuously improve academically with added effort, while those with a fixed mindset had a mindset that their abilities is what they are stuck with, they are afraid to further challenge themselves; due to belief that they aren't capable. Dweck had concluded that praising one without any acknowledgement of effort tended to create a fixed mindset while those praised for hard work or effort were more likely to not only feel more confident but still kept trying even if a task was a challenge, making these qualities a growth mindset,…

    Steven Johnson communicates the useful components of computer games and TV and the way that they depend on their arrangement. I thought that it was intriguing in light of the fact that players in computer games truly make sense of complex storylines and piece puzzles together which they're receiving an "Intellectual exercise” that teaches them the same skills that math problems and board games grant. It doesn't really strike me because I learned this from my brother. At a very young age he played video games and presently still does, he's learned numerous technological developments from them, he’s beat every storyline he's ever entered, and learned how to destroy a few zombies on the way. If he's ever put into a situation, his brain will remember how to tackle the problem hands on and surprisingly he can solve probably any math problem he's given.…

    Reading is widely considered a gateway to knowledge, fantasy, and emotion. It is omnipresent in society through media, both digital and print; it is a core element in a college student’s academic workload, and provides a medium to stray from an otherwise finite world.
