Outside the comfort zone Getting comfortable with challenging your students Geoff Hardy-Gould Director of Education, OISE

Aims 1. I have considered my beliefs on challenging learners 2. I feel more comfortable with challenging learners 3. I have some techniques to challenge learners and to help learners challenge themselves 4. I know what I need to do to make my lessons more challenging

Believing you can do it 1. Approach difficult tasks as challenges to be mastered, not threats to be avoided 2. Set themselves challenging goals 3. Heighten or sustain effort in face of failure 4. Attribute failure to insufficient effort, or lack of knowledge and skills which are acquirable next time

Sources of self-efficacy Mastery experiences Vicarious experiences Social persuasion Danger of undermining Structuring situations Reducing stress reactions

How teachers mediate challenge Fostering an internal need: to respond to challenges to seek out new challenges Appropriacy of challenge Fostering a sense of always wanting to go one step further Setting your own challenging goals
