Question 29

At a school photography club, the tutor tells Ellis, “You have a natural eye for photography.” At the next session, Ellis enters only the portrait category he always uses and turns down the tutor's suggestion to try night photography. The tutor points out that Priya's print is blurred because her camera moved. Priya asks the tutor to show her how to hold the camera steady and signs up for the night photography challenge, which she has never tried before.

With reference to fixed and growth mindsets, explain how Ellis and Priya respond to the tutor's comments.
