Of the many challenges educators face, one of the most challenging is student mindset. Teaching students to comprehend, absorb, and apply new material and concepts is difficult under any circumstances. This is often a major issue for the students you serve particularly when students doubt their ability to learn. Alongside a growth mindset often comes students not understanding that there are multiple ways we can be intelligent. Helping students develop metacognition and understand that we all learn differently gives them confidence to struggle yet persevere. We will look at our many intelligences and the difference between a fixed and a growth mindset to help your students gain confidence about who they are as learners.
