Distance Learning and Office Hours
Hello All,
I just wanted to make a note to let everyone know that I am uploading videos to my YouTube page and to Google Classroom. Internet is slow with all the users so I will be uploading videos over nights to have for you.
Also, I will have "office hours" via Zoom from 9am-12pm M-F. Zoom idea number is:
I will also check my email each week day at 9am and 3pm to see if anyone has any questions.
If you have not done so, please log onto Artsonia and give approval to upload any creations over the off time. A gallery has been set up for at home creations.
Attached is the 8th grade Government activity packet. Also, please add yourselves to Mr. Luizer's 5th hour on Google Classroom (code QWZLZ26) for additional info.
Attached are sketchbook prompts for 8th grade Art...have fun with these!

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Dr. Crum says the biggest game changer is “YOU, by harnessing the power of your mind." She explores scientific results that show the influence of the mindset on the body, and how changing the subjective mindset produced different outcomes. Dr. Crum's work is inspired in part by the placebo effect, and has implications that stretch far beyond the realm of medicine.
Dr. Crum is a professor, psychologist, and researcher investigating how mindsets affect health and behavior.
Dr. Crum's research focuses on how changes in subjective mindsets—the lenses through which information is perceived, organized, and interpreted—can alter objective reality through behavioral, psychological, and physiological mechanisms. Her work is, in part, inspired by research on the placebo effect, a notable and consistent demonstration of the ability of the mindset to elicit healing properties in the body. She is interested in understanding how mindsets affect important outcomes outside the realm of medicine, in the domains of behavioral health and organizational behavior.
The Power of Yet
Carol Dweck researches “growth mindset” — the idea that we can grow our brain's capacity to learn and to solve problems. In this talk, she describes two ways to think about a problem that’s slightly too hard for you to solve. Are you not smart enough to solve it … or have you just not solved it yet? A great introduction to this influential field.
