10 times better, when negative self talk strikes
Very often when you are facing a problem, you start the negative spiral of self talk. People have known to spend hours, thinking and reflecting through negative spirals of self talk. Asking yourself high quality questions is one way of directing your brain attention to the outcome and not to the negative thoughts. Try these 2 set of questions and find out how they impact how you feel and the quality of your thoughts.
Evaluation questionnaire
This evaluation questionnaire asks respondents to provide feedback on a film or piece by answering questions about what elements worked well, what could be improved, if they would see the actual film based on the piece, if the story was effectively shown, and to rate the piece out of 10. The questionnaire collects opinions on different aspects of a creative work to assess its quality and effectiveness.
Believe in yourself
How can you believe in yourself?
Remember, you have to first believe in yourself, then only you can achieve your dreams.
A Student And The Goals
Vijayagopal discusses several goals for students attending Aurora College, including broader success, happiness, and achieving a good life. He notes that it is important for students to determine their own strengths, weaknesses, dreams and goals in order to take action and achieve results. Students should work on developing mental tools and qualities like enthusiasm, sincerity, and confidence to overcome fears of failure or success and complete the action cycle.
Psyc 321_14 surveys
This document discusses different types of questions that can be used in questionnaires and surveys, including open-ended questions, fixed alternative questions, Likert-type scaling questions, and semantic differentials. It also covers considerations for survey administration such as question order effects, sensitive questions, response rates, and biases from different administration methods like face-to-face, telephone, mail, and computer surveys. The overall topic is methods for developing and administering effective questionnaires and surveys in developmental research.
Assertiveness and effectively communicating with peers independent version
The document discusses different communication styles - passive, aggressive, and assertive - and how they apply to tutoring situations. Passive communication does not express honest thoughts and feelings, while aggressive communication violates others' rights. The document advocates for assertive communication as a middle ground, where one can be open and honest without disrespecting others.
Creating Tests That Fail
A set of anti-examples for creating good tests for your product or software. Make sure you are using the right test types, building them correctly, and measuring the success of your venture in a way that's will help lead to its success. A combination of both what not to do, and what to do.
Your product is your test, the test of your business hypothesis, so make it a good one.
Carly presentation
The document summarizes research into how the audition process affects the motivation of London-based dancers. It discusses existing literature on motivation and theories of motivation. It then describes interviews conducted with 3 dancers and industry veteran Louie Spence on their experiences with rejection and success in auditions. The interviews found dancers had surprisingly different reactions to auditions and a lack of clear correlation between performance and short-term motivation. While some dancers were demotivated by rejection, others saw it as motivation to work harder. The conclusion notes the study had limitations but provides initial evidence on how auditions can influence dancers' motivation and career prospects.

The document also gives tips for successfully giving feedback, such as being respectful and focusing on changeable behaviors, and for successfully receiving feedback, like actively listening and seeking continual improvement.

1) Criticism is something that can be avoided by doing nothing, but critics telling you what you could improve on shows they still care about your success.
2) When receiving criticism, remain open-minded, listen carefully, and see it as an opportunity to learn and grow. Consider different perspectives without becoming defensive.
3) Both giving and receiving criticism requires good intentions, focusing on constructive feedback rather than personal attacks, and showing appreciation for the other person and their work.

Group discussions help students understand subjects more deeply, improve critical thinking skills, and help groups make decisions. They also allow students to hear others' ideas and increase confidence in speaking.

Paying attention to polite phrases used when disagreeing or interrupting can also help students join discussions more effectively.

This was the last day of the programme, and I had an opportunity to present a ppt on the subject. Due to some technical problem, the live audio recording of the session, could not be made. It is regretted. The ppt is being uploaded. I have drawn from many sources and am grateful.
You are most welcome to give your valuable comments on the compilation / collection I have made: viswam.vangaplly@gmail.comGrowth Mindset An Introduction
Growth mindset is the belief that your intelligence and abilities can be developed through hard work, dedication, and learning. People with a growth mindset believe that they can improve their skills and knowledge through effort and perseverance. They are not afraid of challenges, and they see setbacks as opportunities to learn and grow.

Action Research for Personal Professional Development
This document discusses using action research for personal professional development. It explains that action research allows teachers to holistically investigate an area of their practice by identifying aspects to improve, implementing changes, and evaluating the results in an ongoing, cyclical process. The document contrasts mini projects, which focus on single items with short-term investigations, and long-term investigations that allow for exploring multiple topics simultaneously. Finally, it provides an example walkthrough of a mini-project on assessing learning and references for further reading on action research and professional development frameworks.

David petrie iatefl 2014 chalk and cheese slide notes
David Petrie presented on the differences between the IELTS and TOEFL exams. He found that while the exams test some similar skills, they differ significantly in their structures, task types, and testing focuses. The exams are not equivalent despite attempts to establish score equivalencies. This has implications for students, teachers, and institutions in choosing the right exam based on an individual's strengths and the needs of the institution. While both exams aim to assess English proficiency for higher education, their different designs mean they likely provide different information about candidates. Institutions may need to reconsider which exam best matches their values and requirements.

David petrie the reading teacher
This document discusses approaches to teaching reading in ESL/EFL classrooms. It begins by asking teachers how they typically approach reading texts from course books. It then describes a common "standard" reading lesson structure and asks teachers if their lessons differ. It explores different types of texts and the reading skills they require. Various reading subskills and strategies like prediction, skimming, scanning, and inferring meaning are defined and potential classroom activities are suggested. Suggested resources on teaching reading strategies are also provided. The document aims to prompt discussion around effective approaches to teaching reading.
