Exploring the Learning
As I move through this program I am able to implement a growth mindset towards my learning. With a growth mindset, I find myself comfortable with the process of making mistakes, yet failing forward. This thinking embodies my learning manifesto, something rooted in the multi-faceted dimensions of learning. I believe that collaboration is a key element to the learning process, which only further encourages my desire to grow my professional learning networks to share and learn from others. Excitement for what's to come is just one way to sum up this first step in my journey!

Growth Mindset
Carol Dweck created the growth mindset to outline the importance of accepting failure as part of the learning process. With a growth mindset, rather than that of a fixed mindset, a person will develop a positive and productive outlook on life, using failures and obstacles as channels for improvement, growth and reflection. ​In my growth mindset plan, I outline what a growth mindset is and its importance, along with the necessities for achieving and modeling the growth mindset and additional resources for creating and implementing the growth mindset.
Learning Manifesto
Upon reflection, it became clear to me what I was passionate about regarding my beliefs about education. My Learning Manifesto shares my passion for placing learning at the center of the education model, my belief and dedication to digital learning, the disconnects and issues with technology in the classroom and my goals as an educator.
