I had never heard of Carol Dweck or the growth mindset before today, however having learnt some information about her I have to say that it is a very intriguing idea and I strongly agree with with the ideology. I also connect with the philosophy on a very deep level. During both secondary and primary school I had the idea in my head that I simply wasn't good enough and can't get better. I can't deny that if I had only received a "Not Yet" grade then I would have had a much different outlook. To be completely honest, I would have to say that after spending most of my life in a fixed mindset, that I now believe I am in a sort of transitional period between the fixed and growth mindset. Since leaving secondary school I believe I have been making progress in changing my mindset and becoming much more positive.

But you won’t be alone, throughout the game you can recruit orcs and trolls into your army in order to conquer the many fortresses and entire regions of Mordor. Only after this will you be able to launch an assault on the Dark Lord Sauron and avenge your wife and child whom were executed by Sauron’s forces in the previous game.

When I first heard about this I assumed that the ‘Nemesis System’ was just a marketing ploy and wouldn’t play a large role in gameplay. Naturally I had become very sceptical when a

 Welcome to My Blog - Robbie Cahill B00132167 This is my first Test Blog for the second year of multimedia development  Hello my name is Robbie Cahill this will be my blog for Multimedia Development in my second year of college in Creative Digital Media Course, at Blanchardstown college. I am very excited to begin this brand new year of college and have a wonderful experience with all my fellow students. But before beginning I would like to give a little introduction and share some information about myself. During secondary school I was very shy and quiet, I made it a point to keep to myself and never really interacted with any social or extracurricular activities in my school. I didn't get good results in tests and didn't have high hopes for my leaving cert.  However once I got my leaving cert results I did far better than I ever thought I could, thanks to a combination of rigorous studying and grinds. After finally putting Secondary school behind me I had another conundrum fa
