Growth Mindset Plan

    1. Create a specific goal to improve or move towards a growth mindset.

Developing a growth mindset takes time.  It is not something that happens over night.  I will need to constantly revisit the concepts of a growth mindset. What I have found through the semester is that students still want to fall back on past practices of a fixed mindset.  I continue to push students to think out side of their fixed mindset.  As they work through the class they build upon the understanding of a growth mindset.

Students need assurance that they are doing the right things when it comes to their learning.  By giving constant feedback in the form of video or personal notes, I can help them feel confident in their learning.  I feel as this is the biggest problem with developing a growth mindset.  The students fear the unknown.
