@JillianCaputo @RutgersAltRoute I think that we as teachers need to look back at the work that we give students and see where we can improve just as we expect the students to do. #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

[Rob Mac @robbymac990]

@RutgersAltRoute A5: I believe that students now a days need differentiated assessments. Assessments that are formatted in a way that allows them to demonstrate their deeper understanding in a way that they prefer. One “fixed” way of assessment does not allow growth. #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

[AlternateRoute @RutgersAltRoute]

Assessments are an opportunity to develop student learning and development. For Question 5, we want to hear your insights on mindset-conscious assessment #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

@robbymac990 @RutgersAltRoute I completely agree that feedback should guide students towards improvement rather than focus on what they got wrong or the overall grade. #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

[Rob Mac @robbymac990]

@Mrscosenza3 @RutgersAltRoute True! When students see a grade and feedback they often look at the grade first and become discouraged. I liked the idea of giving them feedback without a grade! That way students focus on making their improvements rather than worrying about percentage. #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

[Sarah Cosenza @Mrscosenza3]

@RutgersAltRoute a4 #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset Providing well timed, constructive feedback that is not attached to a grade can foster growth. Encouraging the students to improve upon what they have learned so far, and noting the opportunity to grow through effort.

@RutgersAltRoute There's so much power in how we discuss errors, progress, and achievement. These messages and ideas from @robbymac990 @Bria40208778 @KaitlynF43070 @MsYoungmanHPE

@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

[Rob Mac @robbymac990]

@MSearles40 @RutgersAltRoute It is important to be very “animated” when giving students feedback. I feel that “good job” is too bland and my students hear that too much. I often tell my students that I am proud of them because I do not feel that they hear that enough. #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

[Zongmin Esgrow @wanglaoshi001]

@RutgersAltRoute A4 “I know this is a challenging assignment but I know you can do it.” “I can see you have really been improving.” Use the word “yet” to help them understand that learning is a process where are capable of success. #Teachered #growthmindset

[Joaquin Caceres @JoaCac2117]

@RutgersAltRoute A4: Teachers may provide written sectional feedback so that the student knows how they can improve. For discussion, teachers can provide verbal and or physical feedback through hand gestures, etc. #Growthmindset #Teachered

[Rob Mac @robbymac990]

@RutgersAltRoute A4: going back to Dr. Dweck’s power of “yet”. When giving feedback teachers should focus on where students need to improve rather than just giving them feedback that shows poor performance. It is important to not demoralize students with feedback. #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

[AlternateRoute @RutgersAltRoute]

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

[𝔻𝕣. 𝔼𝕣𝕚𝕜 𝕐𝕠𝕦𝕟𝕘𝕞𝕒𝕟 @Erik_Youngman]

@robbymac990 @RutgersAltRoute Agreed. Great focus to extend conversations about HOW students solved a problem or different ways to solve problems extends perspectives, learning and conversations.

[Anthony P @Ant95814343]

@RutgersAltRoute A3: Letting students know it is okay to make mistakes and try again is essential. No one who made it far got there without making mistakes. Success is filled with failures. Students must know it is good to ask questions and be curious. #teachered #growthmindset

[Rob Mac @robbymac990]

@ottovonbizmark7 @RutgersAltRoute Peer to peer discussion is great with opening up students to the fact that not everyone has the same views and outlooks on life. This allows students exposure to people with different cultures, backgrounds, and beliefs. This allows growth. #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

[cooper&co @cooperandmo]

@RutgersAltRoute A3. I try to make a connection/hook at the beginning of my lesson to get them engaged. Also, I (dramatically) celebrate growth in reading stamina and courage for sharing their own answers and ideas with the class. #TeacherEd #Growthmindset #elemchat

[Kaitlyn Frotton @KaitlynF43070]

@RutgersAltRoute I would ask students how they can make their answers better, instead of how they could get it right.
