  • Teachers should focus on students' efforts and not on their abilities. When students succeed, teachers should praise their efforts or their strategies, not their intelligence. (
  • When students fail, teachers should also give feedback about effort or strategies -- what the student did wrong and what he or she could do now.
  • teachers should help students value effort.

  • teach students to relish a challenge
  • keeping a balance between valuing learning and performance.
  • (a) valuing learning and challenge and (b) valuing grades but seeing them as merely an index of your current performance, not a sign of your intelligence or worth.
  • Work harder, avail yourself of more learning opportunities, learn how to study better, ask the teacher for more help, and so on.
  • They are very performance-oriented during a game or match. However, they do not see a negative outcome as reflecting their underlying skills or potential to learn. Moreover, in between games they are very learning-oriented. They review tapes of their past game, trying to learn from their mistakes, they talk to their coaches about how to improve, and they work ceaselessly on new skills.
  • Teaching students to value hard work, learning, and challenges; teaching them how to cope with disappointing performance by planning for new strategies and more effort; and providing them with the study skills that will put them more in charge of their own learning.
  • there is no relation between a history of success and seeking or coping with challenges.
  • praising students' effort had many positive effects.
  • We should praise the process (the effort, the strategies, the ideas, what went into the work), not the person.
  • By motivation, I mean not only the desire to achieve but also the love of learning, the love of challenge, and the ability to thrive on obstacles.

    Maria Popova's blog, brainpickings, on Carol Dweck's work on mindset. Even in children, open or growth mindset is a key factor in learning, while fixed mindset is too focused on being perfect or the best or knowing all the answers. Growth mindset leads to curiosity, learning, exploration, and creativity. Fixed mindsets lead to the status quo and adhering to what exists. Growth mindset sees problems and challenges as growth and learning opportunities, fixed mindset views challenges as failure and underperforming. Great graphic of the 2 mindsets from Dweck's book.

  • Biases cause people to focus too much on success, take action too quickly, try too hard to fit in, and depend too much on experts.
  • Challenge #2: A fixed mindset. The psychologist Carol Dweck identified two basic mindsets with which people approach their lives: “fixed” and “growth.” People who have a fixed mindset believe that intelligence and talents are largely a matter of genetics; you either have them or you don’t. They aim to appear smart at all costs and see failure as something to be avoided, fearing it will make them seem incompetent.
  • people who have a growth mindset seek challenges and learning opportunities.
