I have never heard of Carol Dweck before and was quite fascinated by how to praise children the right way can affect the way they can show their work in the future and how they see and how themselves up in the end. I learned that challenging the mind into something harder can help me grow and learn from that experience how to get better from it. I see that this is true as a person who plays sports being told I haven't gotten the grip of something yet! or being told you can learn this if you try made me want to get even better at the game. In studies now I found practical is so much easier than sit down tests or written classes, as I was taught the movement or shown it once and I could get it. The more hard subjects like maths I found so hard to get the hang of as I could never get into it. In my third year, I got a maths grind's teacher who helped me and got me from a D average to a B so I think as well mentoring can defiantly help the growth mindset as well as I got more confidence in maths alongside other things. 

I personally think that I should give hard challenges a try and try to overcome them as I do feel like I have to be perfect in every way.

Introduction Of Me{Week2}

Introducing Me! Hello, My name is Ciara Meegan, I am 20 year's old and I love food, sports and gaming. When I was 5 years old my Dad tried to get me into basketball but I wasn't a fan at first, so my parents tried football, Gaelic, camogie, tennis, swimming, volleyball even hockey for a bit but I was not happy playing them sports. Until one day in primary school, they were making a basketball team and I just said I'll go for it and see what happens, I showed up and it turns out I was really good at it like it made me happy, I then became the team captain and finally found something that stuck to me and my dad was very proud about, as he played and was captain for the Irish basketball team in his youth. So competitive family and we are always striving for the best in everything, My mother is the same she didn't have a sport she stuck with but was good at anything and everything.  Photo from Ciara Meegan{Taken in Belnamadena, Spain our holidays before Covid-19 was a thing

Game Vision Statement

 Game Vision Statement (https://www.feedough.com/vision-statement/) Game Genre: The game genre I had in mind would be a classic Jumping game in a way like Mario Brothers. Where the game is focused on the main character which will be a dog and there wont be any blood or some gruel stuff but there will be some obstacles and the cats will try and stop the dog. Another word for this would be a platformer game. As these games mainly focus on the obstacle inftont of you and how to get from the ground to the platform. (https://inthelobby.medium.com/it-is-super-marios-3d-world-and-we-re-just-living-in-it-151e099a1122)  An idea of what I would like to do and to replace the characters with dogs and cats instead Gameplay : The gameplay depends on the graphics and how the game goes out as well as the sound effects I am planning on using my own sound effects to make the game more original.  My game centres around the main character named Gordo who is a husky dog trying to get home, but has obstacle

Favourite Game(Week 2)Task 3

 My Favourite Video Game Destiny 2 on Steamstore.steampowered.com My Favourite video game is called Destiny 2, the game was first released on September 6, 2017. the game is a massively multiplayer game and uses a first-person shooter. In my opinion, this game is the best lore type game out there, I admit I wasn't into it at first but then I really got into it once I followed the storyline and the backgrounds of the characters. You start your journey by waking up in an abandoned area but are awoken by a "ghost" who is your light companion and can revive you and respawn you as long as it lives. You were chosen by the "Traveller" who is the bearer of the light and chose you to become a Guardian who protects those from evil and the darkness. The game is more fun to play with friends as you can play more PVP games and complete raids and come together and do the season content as well.  I first started to get into games when my Father would play them at night when he
