growth mindset is the understanding that personal qualities and abilities can change

first discovered by Stanford Professor Carol Dweck,
-
It is the belief that qualities can change and that we can develop our intelligence and abilities
-
Instead, the teacher can coach the student to try different approaches to working, studying, and learning, so that she is thinking more deeply (i.e. mentally working harder) to become a better learner, and of course the teacher should do the same: reflect on how to adjust instruction.
-
another method is modeling lifelong learning and making it visible
-
Growth mindset research is about learning how we humans can all become more motivated and effective learners, not about how we can change students but not ourselves.

ut a growth mindset is none of those things. It is the belief that qualities can change and that we can develop our intelligence and abilities.
-
The reason that this definition of growth mindset is important is that research has shown that this specific belief leads people to take on challenges, work harder and more effectively, and persevere in the face of struggle, all of which makes people more successful learners.
-
When people newer to the growth mindset framework initially learn about this research, they sometimes conclude that we should simply praise children for working hard. But this is a nascent level of understanding.
-
First, exhorting students to work hard would be an attempt to directly change behaviors without changing the underlying belief about the nature of abilities.
-
“It’s not just about effort. You also need to learn skills that let you use your brain in a smarter way. . . to get better at something.”
-
Third, cultivating growth mindsets involves a gradual process of releasing responsibility to students for them to become more self-sufficient learners, and praise is a communications technique that tends to be more helpful earlier in that process of building agency.
-
another method is modeling lifelong learning and making it visible
-
If we don’t work to shift our own mindset about ourselves and our students, then we won’t work to change many other important things in the system necessary to improve education.
-
This means authentically working to become better at what we do throughout our lives, including how we teach and how we create contexts that help students thrive, and making our learning process visible to one another and to students.
-
Context, culture, environment, and systems matter. For one thing, people’s mindsets (as well as other beliefs and behaviors) are strongly shaped by the people around them. Beyond that, people’s destiny is not only a function of what’s within them, but also of what’s around them.
-
Too many tasks and teaching approaches are superficial, irrelevant, unengaging, and not learner-centered. We do need to change these tasks, the curriculum, and the pedagogy. We need to change the idea that school is about testing rather than about learning.
-
Research has shown that developing a growth mindset is beneficial in a variety of contexts, from education to the workplace to interpersonal relationships to sports to health.

When we ask people to tell us what the growth mindset is, we often get lots of different answers, such as working hard, having high expectations, being resilient, or more general ideas like being open or flexible. But a growth mindset is none of those things.

Deb GardnerOffers clarification to often misunderstood term of "growth mindset"
-
Confusion #1: What a growth mindset is
-
It is the belief that qualities can change and that we can develop our intelligence and abilities. The opposite of having a growth mindset is having a fixed mindset, which is the belief that intelligence and abilities cannot be developed. The reason that this definition of growth mindset is important is that research has shown that this specific belief leads people to take on challenges, work harder and more effectively, and persevere in the face of struggle, all of which makes people more successful learners.
-
Confusion #2: To foster a growth mindset, simply praise children for working hard
-
“It’s not just about effort. You also need to learn skills that let you use your brain in a smarter way. . . to get better at something.” (Yeager & Dweck, 2012.)
-
Third, cultivating growth mindsets involves a gradual process of releasing responsibility to students for them to become more self-sufficient learners, and praise is a communications technique that tends to be more helpful earlier in that process of building agency.
-
Confusion #3: Growth mindset is about changing young people, not adults
-
n our work with educators, we encourage the adults to start with themselves. If we don’t work to shift our own mindset about ourselves and our students, then we won’t work to change many other important things in the system necessary to improve education.
-
Confusion #4: All that matters is what’s in the mind
-
Another confusion about mindset is that the only determinant of success is our mindset. But that’s not the case. Context, culture, environment, and systems matter. For one thing, people’s mindsets (as well as other beliefs and behaviors) are strongly shaped by the people around them.
-
Confusion #5: Improvement is all about changing beliefs and not doing anything else
