This webinar will model an inquiry-based lesson designed to specifically foster a growth science mindset through teacher feedback and by taking advantage of the affordances of simulations. We are all scientists!
In watching this on-demand webinar, you will:
- Understand what a mindset is
- Understand how “fixed” and “growth” mindsets can influence student learning and behavior in science
- Know how to promote a growth science mindset through verbal and written feedback
- Learn how Gizmos can help nurture a growth mindset in your students
