Growth Mindset

For this blog, i had to do some reaerch on "Growth Mindset" and Carol Dweck, who talks about this particular subject. Prior to this, Ive never heard of Carol Dweck nor the topic of Growth Mindset.

This blog post is all about Growth Mindset.

If i was to look at my college work on the spectrum of growth fixed mindset, I feel like Im doing well enough in my own skill set but I do feel like i need improving really.

What i have noticed with my learning is that i need to be explianed the point very cleary and need to really understand the in's and out's of a certain topic. I also need to see expamples or see such thing in practice to undertsand it better too. In short, I need to go through the topic to really grasp it and need to see examples and go through how its done.  My biggest challenges is trying to get the hang of new things, adjust to how different new learning can be, espcailly when its in a different environment and done differently too.

I think might somewhat be intrested in learning about the growth mindset this semester, seems some what interesting and may help in the future when relevant.

Learning goals I have for this summer is to really improve on my study and really get on top of my work and do it to the best of my ability aswell. Classes im excited for are the Group Project module, Digital Video Techniques module, and Multimedia Development aswell. I really think the Growth Mindest could help me throughout the year and help improve myself and my work.

Introduction by Nate

Hello, I'm Nathan, a second-year student at ITB. I'm 20 years old and from Cavan. This blog post is about me and hobbies, aspirations etc. If you're reading this, then I'm surprised you want to go through such torture. First of all, I really enjoyed CDM year 1. It was a great experience and felt it was fun and got to meet great people and do interesting things. I still can't get over the fact I'm in college or I even made it to the second year. Thought I would've had a mental breakdown at this point When doing the semester last year, I really enjoyed Storytelling and narrative. I find it fascinating to sit down and talk about films, I'm a bit of a movie buff so I did enjoy breaking them down and even tell a story or two. Honestly my biggest accomplishment last semester was actually getting through to second year and hell, even surviving it knowing me. My goals for this module is to plan out and hopefully make a small film for our group project as its...

Game Idea Research

A collection of different platformers I took inspiration from. I have decided on a game idea from the many I thought up of in last weeks blog post and the idea I have chosen is. A classic platformer, while yes some might say its overdone, I love these kinds of fun and easy to pick up and play games, they are simplistic but charming and fun. There will be 3 mechanics that I have thought about implementing into the game. The game will have a simple story, and charming yet again simple graphics and art style. The key word for this game is simple as I want to make it easy to pick up and play but also be fun and not a chore to play either. The story is about a lone wanderer who has to travel through and discover many places, along his way he has to traverse dangerous perils and collect some artefacts and defeat a villain who, if not stopped could be dangerous. 1. The health bar and a checkpoint system:  The first and most obvious mechanic in games will be the player's health ...

Alpha build of game

For this week, I had to continue doing work on my alpha build of the game. Work is going along well, the character is moving and the controls are working well and the levels final design is complete, all that needs to be done is to add a 3rd person camera, skybox, textures and some gems to collect. Here is a screenshot of the game so far and the character model all the textures need to be added to add more life but other than that, Im happy with it so far.
