It's important to recognize that a growth mindset is an overall paradigm for personal development rather than a pedagogical tool for measuring academic accomplishment. Learn more: - http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching/?tag=mindset

Working with learners of low SES and whose environment more often than not ensures they have a fixed mindset, it is important that we help them to redefine what success is. Too often it is fixed around being rich, having a big car, house, jewellery etc. These learners then become preoccupied with looking for the short-cut to success, to the riches they believe will make them happy. It doesn't work out like that of course. How then to help the alter their thinking? Dweck's work is essential in this. But as this article states it cannot be seen as "a task to complete". It requires a shift in thinking of all in an organisation, a movement for a whole-school way of thinking, involving also parents or carers. This article by Costa, Garmston and Zimmerman provides a solid basis for promoting growth mindsets in educators.

This article is not specifically related to ICT but it makes some points that all teachers need to consider: how to deal with change, how to grow as a professional, how to collaborate. |

Accountability is one side of the coin. Appreciation is the other. Be accountable today and show appreciation to others being accountable and today and every day in every way will be better
