Estelle Platini<p>[…]<br>"What makes the ‘<a href="https://techhub.social/tags/growth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>growth</span></a> mentality’ so appealing, Carol Dweck discovered, is that it creates a passion for learning rather than this thirst for approval. Its hallmark is the belief that human qualities like intelligence and creativity, and even relational capacities like love and friendship, can be cultivated through effort and practice. Not only are people with this mindset not discouraged by failure, they don't actually see themselves as failures in these situations, they see themselves as learners."</p><p>Samah Karaki, doctor in <a

It also issued a warning that the pace of global warming could be <a href="https://c.im/tags/accelerating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accelerating</span></a>, with the likelihood it could surpass the 1.5°C target becoming increasingly plausible. <br>This could lead to several tipping points, including the <a href="https://c.im/tags/collapse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>collapse</span></a> of the <a href="https://c.im/tags/Greenland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Greenland</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/ice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ice</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/sheets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sheets</span></a>, which could have long-lasting consequences.<br>Unexpected sensitivity to climate change is also a concern, as what is often described as a “<a href="https://c.im/tags/tail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tail</span></a>-<a href="https://c.im/tags/risk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>risk</span></a>” might have a higher probability of resulting in significant temperature increases. <br>Methodologies are also now suggesting that a doubling of <a href="https://c.im/tags/greenhouse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>greenhouse</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/gas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gas</span></a> concentrations could lead to <a href="https://c.im/tags/temperature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>temperature</span></a> rises of 7°C or more.<br><a href="https://www.insurancebusinessmag.com/uk/news/environmental/policymakers-urged-to-consider-risk-of-ruin-for-climate-481136.aspx" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">insurancebusinessmag.com/uk/ne</span><span class="invisible">ws/environmental/policymakers-urged-to-consider-risk-of-ruin-for-climate-481136.aspx</span></a></p>
Nicola Romanò<p>Do you do group <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/assessments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>assessments</span></a> for your <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/highered" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>highered</span></a> courses? How do you deal with "free-riders" who don't engage with the rest of the group?</p><p>At the moment I'm thinking of </p><p>- having students include a statement of who has done what in their final product<br>- having a couple of sessions (beginning of term and mid-term) where each group presents a plan first and a short progress report later, which clearly states student contributions <br>- stress to the students that part of the idea for a group assessment is for them to organise and work in a group. I'm a bit torn on this one as it seems unfair to put the onus for those who don't engage on those who do... but hey that's what happens in real life...</p><p>Any other ideas?</p>
