This document discusses the development of habits of mind in students through different stages: awareness, recognition, prediction and valuing, adoption, reflection, and internalization. It describes activities teachers can use to guide students through each stage, from simply introducing the concepts to helping students reflect on and improve their own use of habits of mind. The goal is for habits of mind to eventually become habitual and lifelong for students.
Everyone wants to bring their best to their work and life. And doesn’t it feel great when we’re on top of our game – feeling sharp, resourceful and creative? But with unprecedented levels of demands (at work and in life) and limited resources, it's easy to get swept into the limiting chaos of feeling ‘too busy and overwhelmed’. The costs can be high – lost productivity, diminishing engagement, and less-than-optimal thinking ability. This is true for anyone at all stages of one’s career – from entry level, to mid-management and even executive leadership. This recorded webinar, with presenter Eileen Chadnick, gives you the tools you need to manage during times of 'crazy busy'.

TEDx Thessaloniki: The Power of PositivityLeda Karabela
Seeing things from a positive perspective, being tough enough to resist the collective depressive state, and finding the strength to get up and try hard the things you do best and have that deeper meaning that lifts your soul – that’s what really matters.
Guidance for commissioners of child and adolescent mental health servicesJCP MH
This guide describes what ‘good looks like’ for a modern child and adolescent mental health service (CAMHS). It should be of value to Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) and NHS England.
By the end of this guide, readers should be more familiar with the concept of CAMHS and better equipped to understand:
what a good quality, modern, service looks like
why a good CAMHS delivers the mental health strategy and the Quality Innovation Productivity and Prevention initiative – not only in itself but also by enabling changes in other parts of the system
the benefits of CAMHS to children, young people, their families and carers, and
why CAMHS are important for commissioners.
The happy secret to better work by shawn achor a visual summarySameer Mathur
The document discusses how happiness is influenced more by our internal mindset than external factors. It states that only 10% of happiness depends on external events while 90% depends on how our brain processes the world. Traditional views of motivation see hard work leading to success and success leading to happiness. However, this is not scientifically accurate as success often leads people to raise their goals. The document recommends cultivating positivity through gratitude, journaling, exercise, meditation and acts of kindness to experience a "happiness advantage" with benefits like better job performance and health. Practicing these strategies can help reverse the formula for happiness by encouraging an optimistic mindset.

This document provides 100 energizer games that can be used in workshops, meetings, and community settings. The games are intended to help groups get to know each other, increase energy levels, encourage team building, and make people think about specific issues. Some key games described include "Howdy Howdy" where participants greet each other around a circle, "Names and Adjectives" where people say their name with an adjective starting with the same letter, and "The Sun Shines On..." where a person in the middle calls out attributes and those with the attribute change places. The document encourages facilitators to consider safety, participation, and purpose when selecting energizers.
The document contains a series of "icebreaker brain teasers" intended to engage readers through visual and linguistic puzzles. The teasers include spotting hidden words, counting letters, and recognizing optical illusions. The final sections provide information about a consulting firm called XONITEK that helps clients optimize business processes and leverage new technologies.

The document discusses design thinking and its principles. It defines design thinking as a creative problem-solving approach that focuses on empathy, ideation, and prototyping. Specific tools of design thinking mentioned include questioning techniques like "What? How? Why?" to drive deeper understanding, and methods like "Powers of Ten" and "2x2 matrices" to analyze problems from different perspectives. The document advocates embracing experimentation and action over extensive planning to drive innovation. In summary, design thinking is presented as a human-centered, iterative approach that can be applied across many fields to create innovative solutions.

User Centered Design & Understanding the New Product Development Process with...Margee Moore
This document describes the user-centered product development process used by Kaleidoscope to design flō, a portable device that enhances focus and energy throughout the day. It involves defining a target user persona, mapping their daily experiences, developing design themes aligned with their needs, generating concepts through workshops and sketches, prototyping ideas, and refining a selection of concepts with exploded views and detailing. The goal is to start with understanding user needs and end with a product that delivers a better experience for that user.
