Climate C3.4: Promotes a growth mindset in students

  • Instructor uses incorrect answers as a jumping board to highlight common mistakes: “Thank you for that answer. It gives me an opportunity to talk about a common mistake that I see students make....”
  • Instructor uses “yet” - as in, “you have not yet completely understood this concept/formula, so let us go over it and figure it out together.”
  • Growth mindset activity (Associated lesson plan and assignment)
    • Instructor reinforces the ideas from the growth mindset activity/assignment - using the Growth Mindset Feedback Tool, reminding students about the pledge they made in the assignment, etc.
  • Additional resources:
  • Corrections assignments reward effort and growth rather than penalizing mistakes. Students can submit work and solutions to things they got incorrect on an exam for a return of some or all of their lost points.
  • Metacognitive “exam wrapper” to support students’ reflection on their performance
  • End of semester reflection
