@RutgersAltRoute A5: It is challenging when working w students w fixed mindsets bc they are already convinced & set in their own ways. The way I have revised my assessments & practices to accommodate these students is by creating more project based learning opportunities #TeacherEd#Growthmindset
@RutgersAltRoute A5. As a Special Education Teacher, giving a pre-assessment to my students and working on their skills will show growth in the actual assessment. #TeacherEd#Growthmindset
Teachers have the power to influence the mindset of students. For Question 1, consider research, readings, & your own experience. I.e mindset alerts, like believing that achievement is natural ability & what Carol Dweck refers to as the power of “yet” #TeacherEd#GrowthMindset
Teachers communicate expectations through climate (verbal, nonverbal), input (how much material is taught), response opportunity (chance and volume to respond), & feedback (positive praise, differentiated feedback). Consider this as you answer Question 2 #TeacherEd#Growthmindset
Framing, or how teachers introduce new concepts & tasks to students, is the focus for Question 3. It can steer students to a fixed or growth mindset #TeacherEd#GrowthMindset

Feedback is a compass for improvement and not all feedback is created. Consider your best practices and those you would like to try for Question 4 #TeacherEd#GrowthMindset
@RutgersAltRoute A4. I always give my students feedback that requires students to respond to. Feedback should be positive and not focus on what the student did wrong. I use rubrics for all assignments, and students can see and understand their scores.#TeacherEd#Growthmindset
@RutgersAltRoute A3.I constantly remind my student that mistakes happen. We are all humans, and " nobody is perfect." Promoting a positive message leads to a growth mindset.

@RutgersAltRoute A2: Every teacher can create a safe and welcoming environment for all students to promote a growth mindset in their classroom. Make sure to let the students know the expectations, encourage them to ask questions, and promote collaboration.
