roughly ten thousand years, human ingenuity has been a source of innovation that has led to increasesin quality of life. But it’s also been a dominating factor in events and trends that have threatened qualityof life. Advances from agriculture, energy-harnessing and civic infrastructure, through to syntheticchemistry, biotechnology, solid state engineering, bioengineering, and computer science, have positivelytransformed the world we inhabit. Yet with each wave of innovation there has been a backwash ofconsequences that have, in turn, required further innovation to overcome. As a result, nearly everysignificant challenge we currently face as a society, from climate change and global pollution, to theprevalence and spread of diseases and social

Dweck and herresearch colleagues have also found that the messages students receive from teachers frompreschool through college impact their mindsets, their goal orientation, and, consequently, theiracademic achievement.[12]Our practice has shown that other important traits employers are looking for are engagement andintegrity. Thus, the course also utilizes Ellen Langer’s book, The Power of Mindful Learning, asanother text.

So the privilege of living in a developed country, having your roads always working, your police not taking bribes, your systems always being in place, your infrastructure always being there, has made you not understand the impact of having people who can actually do these things in the future.” (p. 8)Individualism is also reflected in the culture Tara observed at the
