When a kid struggles to answer a question, for example, teachers resist the urge to swoop in and offer hints. Instead, they let students squirm a little through an awkward silence. The idea is to get kids comfortable with struggle so they see it as just a normal part of learning.

  This here is key. I find that science teachers are often best at this...giving kids time to "ponder" as Jeff Radloff says. The main thing is having that conversation with your class so everyone knows awkward silence is ok--maybe rebrand it as "thinking silence!"

"Telling students they need to take advantage of the feedback they get isn't just good advice -- it's established science. In the last few decades, researchers have discovered a lot about how people become experts. The main idea, made popular by everyone from author Malcolm Gladwell to rapper Macklemore, is the 10,000-hour rule. Ten thousand is the number of hours it takes to become an expert in almost any field. "

"Influencing how students view themselves as learners is challenging work. Students often won't respond if a teacher just tells them how they should think - that creates defensiveness. Instead, a good tactic is to teach them some of the neuroscience around learning, including that the brain is malleable."
