Remake of Brainology: Transforming Students' Motivation to Learn by https://padlet.com/alucero42/e50gmqyi9ozf2s74 Introduction Research shows that our brains change throughout our lives as a result of learning and experience The way that students feel about their brains--whether they think they can grow & learn or they think their intelligence is fixed--plays a role in their motivation and school achievement Fixed mindset: students may feel afraid of challenges and devastated by setbacks Growth mindset: students may feel excited about challenges and resilient when faced with failures The article will go on to answer these questions: How do these mindsets work? How are these mindsets communicated to students? And can they be changed?

Society as a whole looks down on failure, which can also circumstantially effect people, when in reality failure should be experiences to bounce back. https://padlet.com/alucero42/e50gmqyi9ozf2s74/wish/2036645771 2022-02-08 22:48:53 UTC https://padlet.com/alucero42/e50gmqyi9ozf2s74/wish/2036645771 Rachelle https://padlet.com/alucero42/e50gmqyi9ozf2s74/wish/2036646595 A time I faced a challenge was when I couldn't understand my math homework and I gave up, then I did bad on my math test. ]]> 2022-02-08 22:49:38 UTC https://padlet.com/alucero42/e50gmqyi9ozf2s74/wish/2036646595 https://padlet.com/alucero42/e50gmqyi9ozf2s74/wish/2036647970 Heading to the gym and lifting things that were out of my limit was a challenge.
