“In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work—brains and talent are just the starting point. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment.” Carol Dweck
"'The Educator and The Growth Mindset' is the title of this nice visual created by Dr. Jackie Gerstein. This visual beautifully and succinctly captures the antagonistic thinking underlying the fixed mindset and the growth mindset. While the earlier renders the individual consumed with toxic feelings of powerlessness and helplessness, the latter pushes individuals to their heights. A teacher with a growth mindset nurtures feelings of self-actualization and empowerment and is more acutely prepared to positively impact students and learning community."
