Growth Mindset

Hi!

In this post, I wanted to make sure everyone is aware of the different types of mindsets. There is a growth mindset, which is believing one can improve, and a fixed mindset, which is not believing in oneself. In schools, it is important that we as teachers promote a growth mindset. Here you can read an article from Harvard Business Review which highlights the importance of this mindset. Here is a link for another article on growth mindset from Education Week which is more education focused than the last article. Lastly, here you can find a list of activities and resources for students learning about a growth mindset from Edutopia.

Thanks for reading!
