Ever faced a situation where you<br />
felt like the work or assignment<br />
you have is just too hard?<br />
Education specialist Carol Dweck<br />
has studied why some kids rise up<br />
to meet challenges while others<br />
give up before even attempting<br />
to solve a problem. If you want<br />
to learn how to be an overcomer,<br />
this video explains the mindset<br />
you need to have. The content<br />
is really helpful, but what makes<br />
the video even cooler is that it’s<br />
animated. The cartoon-style<br />
drawings make complex terms<br />
simpler, but also make the video<br />
super fun to watch.<br />
…if you hope to reduce<br />
incidents of bullying<br />

When Caitlin Haacke was<br />
in Grade 11, someone broke<br />
into her school locker. They<br />
got onto her Facebook via<br />
her iPad and posted hateful<br />
things, including a wish that<br />
she would die. While this<br />
was an awful experience,<br />
Caitlin decided to deal<br />
with it through kindness<br />
rather than anger. She<br />
wrote loads of kind sayings<br />
and affirmation on notes,<br />
and put these up all over<br />
her school. In an inspiring<br />
TedXTeen talk, Caitlin<br />
shares how her experience<br />
led to the Positive Post-<br />
It Campaign which hopes<br />
to reduce bullying by<br />
spreading kindness.<br />
