From both Sarah Jayne Blackmore's Ted Talk, and Dan Siegel's presentation I learned what a fixed mindset was, and what a growth mindset was. A fixed mindset is worrying about being jugged while a growth mindset is knowing that things can be improved. I personally thought that Sarah Jayne Blackmore's presentation was better because there was more examples that engaged the audience's attention instead of just a long lecture about a topic. The overlap from both presentations was that they both talked about the same subject of a fixed, and growth mindset. The way that their presentations differed was that one was more interactive than the other. For example, Sarah had a little brain and when trying to explain how a certain part of the brain works she would pick up the brain and point to a certain part of it to help the audience understand. While Dan's presentation was more of just a lecture. I found myself getting bored and would often lose my attention.
