Teacher mindsets result in expectations impacting student achievement.

Mindsets powerfully impact learning behaviour. Learners with a growth mindset work harder, embrace challenge, persist for longer and learn from criticism, whereas the fixed mindset develops undesirable learning dispositions and character traits, ultimately achieving less.  Teacher mindsets result in expectations impacting student achievement. It is important that teachers understand the impact their beliefs, words and actions have on cultivating the learning disposition of students.

I really enjoyed the course. It made me think more critically about the language that I use within the classroom and when delivering feedback to students. This will help me with practical application in the classroom.

I really enjoyed the content of this course; very thought provoking and it challenges one’s teaching habits. I highly recommend it to anyone, new teachers and those of us who have been in the game a long time, also great for parents, coaches and anyone wanting to gain a wider perspective on how humans learn best.

This online course is excellent; I shall encourage more of our staff to do it. The learning was very valuable. I have done other learning in this area and it built on that and reinforced a lot of directions we wish to take at our school.
