Help students develop a growth mindset by praising effort and perseverance from "summary" of The Growth Mindset Coach by Annie Brock,Heather Hundley
In order to instill a growth mindset in students, it is essential to provide them with specific types of praise. By focusing on praising effort and perseverance, educators can help students develop a deeper understanding of the learning process. When students are praised for their efforts rather than their innate abilities, they are more likely to view challenges as opportunities for growth. This type of praise encourages students to persist in the face of obstacles and setbacks, ultimately leading to a greater sense of resilience and determination. Effort-based praise sends the message that success is a result of hard work and dedication, rather than just natural talent. This can be particularly powerful for students who may have previously believed that their intelligence or abilities were fixed. By highlighting the importance of effort and perseverance, educators can help students see that they have the power to improve and grow over time. This shift in mindset can lead to increased motivation and a willingness to take on new challenges. In addition to praising effort, it is also important to acknowledge and celebrate students' perseverance in the face of difficulties. When students are recognized for their resilience and determination, they are more likely to view setbacks as learning opportunities rather than failures. This can help students develop a more positive attitude towards challenges and setbacks, fostering a sense of self-efficacy and confidence in their abilities.- Educators can create a classroom culture that values growth and development. This type of praise helps students see that their potential is not fixed, but rather something that can be nurtured and cultivated over time. Ultimately, by praising effort and perseverance, educators can help students develop a growth mindset that will serve them well both in and out of the classroom.
