Today I read Larry Ferlazzo's posting on the effects of praise on motivation http://larryferlazzo.edublogs.org/2013/01/20/video-carol-dweck-on-the-effect-of-praise-on-mindsets/.

Presentation Zen: Nurturing curiosity & inspiring the pursuit of discovery - 0 views

  • We are obsessed with giving prizes to students who memorize the most facts and bits of information (and in the shortest amount of time). Why don't we give prizes for the students who demonstrate their unabashed curiosity and demonstrable pursuit of discovery? A driving child-like curiosity and sense of wonder is an undeniable sign of intelligence. The curious can eventually overcome their ignorance, but the chronically incurious—and yet self-assured—are stuck with their ignorance for a lifetime
