• Growth Mindset vs. Fixed Mindset

    A growth mindset means believing abilities can improve with effort, like thinking, "I can learn math if I practice."
    A fixed mindset assumes skills are set in stone, like saying, "I’m just bad at math."
    Students with a growth mindset embrace challenges and learn from mistakes, while those with a fixed mindset may give up easily.
    Teachers can foster a growth mindset by praising effort ("You worked hard!") instead of talent ("You’re so smart!").
    Small shifts in thinking help students become more resilient and confident learners.

    Absolutely right! A growth mindset empowers students to see learning as a journey, not a fixed destination. When they believe effort leads to improvement, they're more likely to persevere through difficulties and view mistakes as opportunities to grow. As educators, when we focus on praising the process rather than innate ability, we encourage students to take risks, stay motivated, and build confidence. These small but meaningful shifts in mindset can make a lasting impact on how students approach both academics and life.
