Math Leadership Support Network ’09-’10 Mindset is "an established set of attitudes held by someone." Oxford American Dictionary

Math Leadership Support Network ’09-’10 Fixed Mindset If you have a fixed mindset, you believe that your talents and abilities are set in stone–either you have them or you don’t. You must prove yourself over and over, trying to look smart and talented at all costs. This is the path of stagnation. Mindset, Carol Dweck

Math Leadership Support Network ’09-’10 Growth Mindset If you have a growth mindset, you know that talents can be developed and that great abilities are built over time. This is the path of opportunity– and success. Mindset, Carol Dweck

Math Leadership Support Network ’09-’10 Effect of Feedback on Student Learning “Enhancing student motivation is not about enhancing self-concepts of ability… Enhancing motivation means enhancing students’ valuing of effort and a commitment to effort-based strategies…” C. Ames “Feedback is the key to how you set kids up in their learning orientation.” Jan Chappuis

Math Leadership Support Network ’09-’10 ‘Motivation is the most important factor in determining whether you succeed in the long run. What I mean by motivation is not only the desire to achieve, but also the love of learning, the love of challenge and the ability to thrive on obstacles. These are the greatest gifts we can give our students.’ Mindset, Carol Dweck
