Workshop Summary:
According to mindset psychology researcher Carol Dweck, “A growth mindset is the understanding that we can develop our abilities and intelligence.” Research has shown that our implicit beliefs about our intelligence can have a great impact on our achievement.
As I’ve observed and helped implement growth mindset projects and curriculums in schools across the country, I’ve seen students’ attitudes improve and the overall culture of the classroom and school expand toward a more positive and productive climate.
We want our students to learn the value of productive struggle and to feel safe taking risks in the effort of learning something new. We all want our children to have confidence and feel like they can have a positive impact on their school and their community. We want them to believe they have the power to make our world a better place. And every single teacher wants high achievement levels for their students.
As I’ve worked with teachers, I’ve seen classroom climates infused with a sense of purpose and contribution. I’ve seen children’s self-esteem being cultivated, and learning that demonstrates that growth comes from productive struggle.
In this workshop, you’ll learn…
- Growth Mindset vs. Fixed Mindset
- Establishing growth mindset beliefs
- Strengthening the brain as a muscle
- How students learn by doing, experiencing, and practicing
- Encouraging growth from productive struggle
- Skills are BUILT not born—they have to be earned
- How our words influence the culture
- The connection between ability and accomplishment
- Negative labels and how they work
- The dangers of praise and positive labels
- Creating a growth mindset culture
- What makes a great teacher
- How to talk about success and failure
- Tools for creating a growth mindset classroom
- Developing processes and procedures for promoting a positive classroom climate
We know from the research that students (and teachers) with a growth mindset learn, thrive, and achieve more than those who have fixed mindsets.
During this online workshop, I will give you the FREE tools to implement a growth mindset curriculum that is super-easy, and offers big benefits for your classroom community.
You’ll also receive exclusive access to “Growth Mindset Digital Resource Bundle,” digital resources and ready-to-go lessons FREE that will help you develop gritty, determined, self-reliant students who know that if they work hard enough they can and will accomplish great things.
