Today’s episode is all about developing a mindset of personal growth; inquiring more, allowing yourself to make mistakes, asking for help, and taking breaks.

Why EdTech September?

EdTech September brings together for LVEC listeners key topics in the field of Educational Technology (EdTech). As a new web developer, you need to know how you learn most successfully, so you can apply that approach to everything you need to learn in the future.
