The image of a successful person can vary from one individual to the next; however, upon closer inspection those who succeed share a common quality: their mindset. Teachers will examine various ways to positively alter their own lives as a result of mindset, but equally important, how students can benefit from a growth mindset culture in the classroom. It is apparent that we want our students to develop and maintain a growth mindset; however, it is also necessary that we foster an awareness within them that allows them to respectfully question social injustices and determine ways to promote change. This course provides the foundation for understanding mindset, the difference between a fixed and growth mindset, the importance of the brain and how it works, specific ways to foster a growth mindset environment, the role of critical thinking, differentiation and critical consciousness and cultural responsiveness, ways to change mindsets, and strategies that promote a growth mindset.
