I just went back on my SlideShare account, and I had had a LOT of views. Considering that those two PowerPoints have only been on there a week, together they have had 270 views!!!
The PowerPoint that Kris the architect showed us has now got around 193 views, and the one about the traits of a successful learner has 77!!!

Successful Learner PPT
I was recently referred to a site called "SlideShare". This is what the SlideShare website says: "Upload and share your PowerPoint presentations and Word documents on SlideShare. Share publicly or privately. Add audio to make a webinar". I am enjoying using it and already have two uploads and gaining. You will notice a widget on the side of my blog showing all my SlideShare uploads. Anyway, back to business. Earlier in the year I wrote a post about the traits of a successful learner, and I mentioned that I didn't know how to upload the PowerPoint I made to Blogger, so this seemed like the perfect solution. To see the earlier post, click here. So here is my PowerPoint [Please note that the actual PowerPoint had a short but inspiring clip in it. To see the clip, click here]:

Traits of a Successful Learner
In class and at home we made a presentation about successful learners, their traits, and all the other things that make up great/intelligent people. Ours was a PowerPoint, and we made one about all the different types of learners (Leader, Quiet, Risk-taker, Team Player, ME). Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to upload that to Blogger, though I am working on another way to get it on the web...
There are numerous ways to recognize great people, from all throughout the ages. Renzulli’s triad of multiple intelligences, the 16 Habits of Mind, the NZ Curriculum Key Competencies, Blooms Taxonomy (classification, not stuffing animals).
This post may seem a bit weird, but it was set as homework by my teacher, Mr Woody. There are numerous examples of brilliant people nowadays, but now people only excel in one area, back in the time of Leonardo Da Vinci, or other such people, there were geniuses who dabbled in a little bit of just about everything.
Renzulli’s triad ties in with this quite a bit so…
Persistence, sticking to it and remaining focused and being willing to follow it through to the end. Managing Impulsivity, not calling out or being disruptive and thinking before acting. Listening, being understanding of who you are listening to and empathise to make an effort to perceive another's thoughts. Thinking Flexibly, look at a problem or challenge differently and be able to change your view or way of thinking. Now I’m sure that I could go on like this and bore you to death, so I’ll skip to the next paragraph. To view the rest of the Habits of Mind, CLICK HERE!!!
One of my modern greats would have to be Barack Obama, who won the US election late last year, and was sworn in as the first black president of the US in January this year.

The 16 Habits of Mind are super important for this so here they are:
