      Did you know that both Canvas and Blackboard have free access to creating several online classes. I am teaching in one of those free options. I teach a different class in the free Blackboard. I like these tools better than any other I have tried but I respect that others have different ideas.

      Please also check to see which internet access comes from smart phones. You will be amazed at how many families have access to at least one smart phone that can do what a computer can do. Don't assume this is not so, ask.

Growth Mindset and the Common Core Math Standards | Edutopia - 1 views

  • equal prior math achievement to determine how a fixed mindset (the belief that intellectual abilities are fixed) compared to a growth mindset (the belief that intelligence can be developed) impacted math achievement.
  • The results of the study showed that the treatment group -- the students who embraced the belief that intellectual abilities can be cultivated and developed through application and instruction -- had marked improvement in grades and study habits compared to the control group. By the end of the fall term, the math grades had jumped apart and continued to diverge over the next two years
  • Dweck’s mindset theory goes hand in hand with the Common Core's Standards for Mathematical Practice (SMPs) in conveying a growth mindset in the classroom. The key difference between fixed mindset and growth mindset teachers is in how they view struggling students. The fixed mindset teacher perceives these students as not sufficiently bright, talented or smart in the subject, whereas the growth mindset teacher sees struggling students as a challenge -- as learners who need guidance and feedback on how to improve. Growth mindset teachers see the challenge as an opportunity for students to learn when their efforts and mistakes are highly valued.
