Those praised for the process wanted the more challenging activity.

*Expecting kids to live up to a certain intelligence creates a place that they are afraid to fail.
* Taking on challenges is a natural part of learning
*Fixed mindset will blame others for their lack of learning.
*We must praise the process of learning not their intelligence in order to not create a fixed mindset.

Fixed vs Growth mindset is a lifestyle, not something only evident while learning

I found it interesting that students think effort is a bad thing like if you are smart you do not have to give effort.

growth mindset...learn at all times

Students think that it's something they are born with...we aren't all the same.   Don't see the possibilities of growth.
Fixed: Look smart at all times.
Growth: Learn at all times.

Look Smart vs.  Learn

When students entered seventh grade they entered about the same achievement but they pulled apart based on what they thought about thier own mindset
