<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">In this Photoshop photo effects tutorial, we're going to take a couple of photos and blend them together Hollywood movie poster-style. Blending photos together is very easy to do in Photoshop thanks to layer masks, yet finding two photos with similar colors isn't always so easy, and you end up with an effect that doesn't really seem to look right because the colors don't match.</span></div>

I want my transition to end where the water and land meet, so I'm going to click just below the top of my beach photo and drag straight down to just above the water line:</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">There is a growing awareness that our graduates will need much more than mastery of the three Rs to make it in the world. Let’s broaden our curriculum and pedagogical focus beyond tests, grades and diplomas to include skills that are needed to achieve success beyond the school years. How will our current students approach the complexity of problems they will face at age 25, 45 and 65. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Lucky for us, hard and soft sciences have produced an impressive body of evidence that teaches us two very important things. First, that we can take our innate abilities and cultivate them, just like we build up muscle, dexterity, and fluency. And secondly, that social and emotional skills matter just as much in determining life satisfaction and success as traditional intelligence. </span></div>

What matters, instead, is whether we are able to help her develop a very different set of qualities, a list that includes persistence, self-control, curiosity, conscientiousness, grit, and self-confidence.”</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> - Tough (2012)</span></div>

As the economy increasingly delegates lower-level tasks to machines, we will increasingly turn our focus to teaching students how to solve complex challenges by managing themselves (e.g., through integrity, self-control, and grit) and their relationships (e.g., by employing empathy and embracing diversity).</span></div>

Non-cognitive abilities - including strength of motivation, an ability to act on long-term plans, and the social emotional regulation needed to work with others - also have a large impact on earnings, employment, labor force experience, college attendance, teenage pregnancy, participation in risky activities, compliance with health protocols and participation in crime.”</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Merriam-Webster defines integrity as “firm adherence to a code of especially moral or artistic values; incorruptibility.” Integrity stems from honesty, but is a higher, more public form of action - we are consciously making our personal values known to others. Integrity means being responsible for our actions and owning our roles in solving problems. By teaching and promoting integrity, we help our students become leaders and change agents who feel a commitment to take a stand and make things right. </span></div>

This attitude acknowledges our history of differences while empowering every person to succeed and enables all of us to come together in a caring, respectful, and productive way. Embracing diversity conveys that tolerance or acceptance of those who are different than we are is necessary but we must go beyond tolerance and acceptance and learn to value, appreciate, and hold close others who are different. This is critical given the correlation between and individuals poor performance as a result of projected negative stereotypes on that individual. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Grit is tenacity, perseverance, hanging in, and not ever giving up. Angela Duckworth calls grit a “combination of passion and perseverance for very long-term goals.” Teaching for grit means addressing attitudes about what it takes to succeed. Having grit means possessing an attitude that embraces challenges, willingly stepping out of the comfort zone, and never giving up. Grit gives us the courage to take risks and to fail because we know that failure is a necessary ingredient in ultimate success. In all endeavors, the achievements of highly successful people do not come easily, regardless of how effortless they may appear. They possess their skills, talents, and acumen because they work diligently, persevering constantly to improve; they refuse to give up and are unwilling to settle for anything less than success. They encounter frustrations and failures along the way, but they see them as obstacles, not walls. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Louise Nevelson is known for her assemblages of abstract expressionist “boxes” grouped together to form a new creation. Nevelson’s sculpture makes an art of the cast-off; they teem with objects we identify: toilet seats, chair backs, table legs, crates, barrel lids, wooden spools, blocks, table leaves, arabesque ornamentation, even coasters. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">The daughter of a woodcutter and a junk-dealer, Nevelson gives intense care to geometric precision in her work. She melds blocks of found wood into precise constructions, then colors them monochromatically; black, white, or gold. The sculptures are three-dimensional catalogs of lines and shapes, taxonomies of craft that seem almost to rise up like skylines of great cities. </span></div>
