Teachers, what do your students do when learning gets tough?
If they have a fixed mindset - a belief that their understanding and abilities are fixed, and that they cannot improve - they give up. They get discouraged, they stop trying, and sometimes they even act out against others or against the teacher!
If they have a growth mindset - a belief that, with hard work and perseverance, they can develop and improve their own understanding and abilities - they persevere. Not because they're told to, but because they WANT to. They want to because they know they can grow.
Research even shows that one of the biggest predictors of success in life is a person's desire to do their work thoroughly and accurately, even when faced with challenges. They persevere because they know that they can develop their understanding and abilities to match the task in front of them.
If you want your students to succeed in the classroom and in life, start by helping them develop a growth mindset!
In this training, we'll talk in detail about how you can teach your students how to approach learning with a growth mindset and how you can cultivate a growth mindset culture in your classroom, all without adding to your already full teaching schedule.
