Growth Mindset


After reading the article, “The Simple Phrase That IncreasesEffort 40%” I was really intrigued in his findings. Students/people need to feel like they belong or they are doing something right, that they have a purpose. Giving students feedback can result in a negative or positive way. To have an effect on students, teachers need to show the students that they believe in them and expect them to do well. I definitely agree with this because I think people need the reassurance. Being human, there are always thoughts flowing in and out of your mind about if what you are doing is worth it at all. In personal experience, it just makes the student feel better and it will give them that boost in self-confidence.
