Very interesting read on learning and mindset

November 29, 2007 at 01:46 PM | tags: random, links

From Scientific American "The Secret to Raising Smart Kids" by Carol S. Dweck. Hint: Don't tell your kids that they are. More than three decades of research shows that a focus on effort—not on intelligence or ability—is key to success in school and in life.

I see these differences in our students.
