Incorporating Mathematical Mindsets
Join Professor George Woodbury of College of the Sequoias to discover the advantages of having a growth-mindset over a fixed-mindset.
In this webinar, we explore the advantages of having a growth-mindset over a fixed-mindset. There are many ways that these ideas can have a positive impact on your students and their performance in your classes. We discuss what the difference is between a growth-mindset and a fixed-mindset, how to help students develop a growth-mindset, and the messages we should/shouldn't send our students.
