As we conclude our discussion on Growth Mindset please reflect upon your own practice as an educator.

• Are you providing room for growth in the manner that you provide praise to your students?
• Does the feedback that you give provide students with a pathway to move forward?
• Are your tasks open enough, allowing for different perspectives, methods, or answers?
• Do you allow for discussion and collaboration in a way that provides students with opportunities to have their voices heard?
• Do you encourage students to struggle and make mistakes? Do you show them the value in doing so?

As we close our time together think about the aspects of growth mindset that have been discussed. Now, think about your teaching practice. Where do they align? Where is there some room for your own growth? Are there things you would like to change about your practice or try?
