@RutgersAltRoute#TeacherEd Feedback should be from a perspective of a growth mindset. This includes being non-judgemental and giving feedback in a timely manner.
@RutgersAltRoute#TeacherEd Mindset conscious assessment can include feedback that is focused on effort and not just the outcome. Student involvement in their own assessments can make a difference. Giving opportunities to using rubrics so students are made clear of their expectations.
@RutgersAltRoute#TeacherEd Mindset conscious framing by using words like "yet." Praising students on the ability and process and not the outcome. It's important to normalize that with struggle, something meaningful can come about.
@RutgersAltRoute#TeacherEd Teachers can create a positive classroom environment by modeling what a growth mindset looks like. We can share how we overcame challenges. Materials can include scaffolded instruction and lastly, response opportunities can include feedback while the students are work
