The 'growth mindset' all workers need to cultivate - BBC Worklife Bosses have long said workers need a growth mindset. Now, this skill is more important than ever – and it’s possible to master it. Among daily changes within the world of work, there’s never been a better time for employees to cultivate skills to help them better manage workplace challenges. Yet, this ‘can do’ mindset can be more difficult to harness than it seems. Even if we believe that such tenacity is worth developing, in practise, doubts and fears can dominate. At the heart of the growth mindset is learning to overcome such feelings of inability or inadequacy in the face of obstacles, and instead recognise an opportunity to learn.
Motywacja Motywacja jak narkotyk Czy oglądałeś kiedyś film motywacyjny na Youtube? Taki, który w przekonywujący sposób miał dać Ci do zrozumienia, że nie ma żadnych ograniczeń i że możesz wszystko? A może nawet byłeś na szkoleniu motywacyjnym? Wróć myślami do tamtego momentu i przypomnij sobie, jak się wtedy czułeś: Co zawdzięczasz tej energii, którą udało Ci się w sobie obudzić? Bądź ze sobą szczery. Z całą pewnością z takiego energetycznego doładowania mamy jakieś korzyści. Sam kiedyś wierzyłem w to, że motywację trzeba wciąż pobudzać. Gdy narkotyk przestawał działać, pojawiał się mentalny kac. Dzisiaj już nie potrzebuję w żaden sposób pobudzać mojej chęci do działania. W tym artykule spojrzymy na zjawisko motywacji w trochę szerszy sposób i dokopiemy się do jej źródeł. Zacznijmy od tego, czym w ogóle jest motywacja. Różne twarze motywacji Motywacja jest wewnętrznym, psychofizycznym stanem gotowości do podjęcia się określonego działania. Ten stan gotowości dotyczy każdego naszego działania. 1. 2. 3.
The Science: The Growth Mindset - Mindset Works®: Student Motivation through a Growth Mindset, by Carol Dweck, Ph.D. Why the Growth Mindset? When students and educators have a growth mindset, they understand that intelligence can be developed. Students focus on improvement instead of worrying about how smart they are. They work hard to learn more and get smarter. Based on years of research by Stanford University’s Dr. Dweck, Lisa Blackwell Ph.D., and their colleagues, we know that students who learn this mindset show greater motivation in school, better grades, and higher test scores. What does a Growth Mindset School look like? Administrators support teachers’ learning. Teachers collaborate with their colleagues and instructional leaders, rather than shut their classroom doors and fly solo. Parents support their children’s learning both inside and outside the classroom. Students are enthusiastic, hard-working, persistent learners. What is the impact of Mindset? Mindsets Predict Motivation and Achievement Growth Mindset Training Boosts Motivation and Achievement
How can parents and teachers best educate young children? What principles can both teachers and parents bring to the education of very young children? Gillian Craig, who was part of the Learning Time with Shaun and Timmy writing team, explains. As teachers and parents, we follow certain principles in our roles. Often though, these principles overlap and all we need to do is recognise and reinforce these areas. Ask (the right) questions When my daughter came out of her class one day shortly after her course started, I asked her, 'What did you do in class today?'. Although my daughter is only two years old, (and more experienced parents than me would not have asked such a broad question to start with), questioning our children at any age about what they have done in class is a natural thing to do. Similarly, a child’s artwork can provide a prompt for asking questions: 'What (or who) is it?' Teachers also want their students to reflect on their lessons, but with young children especially, this is a learned skill. Reinforce desirable behaviour
Tänker du att elever är A- eller C-elever? Tänker du att elever är A- eller C-elever? Tänker dina elever det? Kan det påverka deras kunskapsutveckling? Carol Dweck har beforskat detta och pratar om två olika former av ”mind-sets” – att 1) antingen se att elever kan utvecklas och kommunicera detta (growth mind-set) eller att 2) man kan/kan inte (fixed mind-set). Även i Hatties ”Visible learning” kan vi se att INTE klassificera elever kan ha stor positiv påverkan på deras lärande (effektstorlek 0,61). ”Recent research has shown that students’ mind-sets have a direct influence on their grades and that teaching students to have a growth mind-set raises their grades and achievement test scores significantly.” Läs mer här (finns flera referenser i artikeln).
10 ways to encourage students to take responsibility for their learning… 1. Don’t make all the decisions Allow choice. Encourage students to make decisions about how they learn best. Create opportunities for them to pursue their own interests and practise skills in a variety of ways. Cater for different learning styles. 2. Ask open-ended questions, with plenty of possible answers which lead to further questions. 3. Minimise standing out front and talking at them. 4. Talk about your own learning. 5. Get your students to write down what they learned, whether they enjoyed a particular learning experience, what helped their learning, what hindered their learning and what might help them next time. 6. Record student thinking and track development over time. 7. Help students to define goals for their learning. 8. If you know exactly where the lesson is leading and what you want the kids to think, then you‘re controlling the learning. 9. Make sure you and your students know the reason for every learning experience. 10. I know there are lots more ways. Like this:
25 Ways to Develop a Growth Mindset - InformED A longitudinal investigation of the role of quantity and quality of child-directed speech in vocabulary development Carol Dweck: 'The whole idea of growth mindset is to say yes they can' Carol Dweck is education’s guru of the moment. The US academic’s “growth mindset” theory has taken schools on both sides of the Atlantic by storm. When TES met the Stanford University psychology professor at the Festival of Education at Wellington College last week, the mere mention of her name was sending teachers into shivers of excitement. But the woman herself is refreshingly modest about the success of her philosophy. “You never know how influential your idea is going to be,” she says, smiling. Like all good ideas, Professor Dweck’s is essentially a simple one – it says that an individual’s learning is shaped by whether they believe their intelligence is fixed or can be changed (see panel, below right). And it seems to have flicked a switch in thousands of teachers’ heads. A means of marginalisation? Inevitably, the backlash has begun. She is visibly saddened to hear that her work has been interpreted in this way. Read the full feature on growth mindset in the 26 June issue of TES.
Ucz się, jak się uczyć - Uniwersytet SWPS Szczegóły 30 stycznia 2018 Jakie techniki stosować, żeby szybko czytać i więcej pamiętać? Jak rozwijać kreatywność i innowacyjność? O metodzie mapowania myśli (Mind Mapping) opowiada jej twórca Tony Buzan podczas wykładu na Uniwersytecie SWPS. Mapowanie myśli (Mind Mapping) to szczególny rodzaj notowania, który ma zwiększać efektywność pracy i zapamiętywania oraz aktywować intuicję, dzięki wykorzystaniu synergicznej współpracy obu półkul mózgowych. Twórcy metody twierdzą, że podczas sporządzania notatek w sposób tradycyjny, aktywna jest jedynie lewa półkula mózgu, odpowiedzialna za myślenie logiczne, linearność, analizę, słowa i liczby. Zamiast tradycyjnych notatek w metodzie tej wykorzystywane są arkusze, na których rysowane są mapy skojarzeń. Metoda zyskała dużą popularność w edukacji i biznesie. Prelegent Tony Buzan – twórca koncepcji map myśli (Mind Maps), myślenia promienistego (Radiant Thinking), umiejętności posługiwania się umysłem (Mental Literacy).
Growth Mindset and Fixed Mindset: What's the Difference? A mindset is a set of beliefs about yourself that shape how you interpret and interact with the world around you. These belief systems not only impact your behavior but also influence your ability to reach your goals. These results support the previous findings of psychologist Carol Dweck. Dweck’s work suggests that praising children for their intelligence (“You’re so smart!”) versus their efforts (“You worked so hard!”) Growth Mindset vs. Dweck described the two basic types of mindsets that people hold as either fixed or growth. Fix mindset: People with a fixed mindset believe that abilities are inborn and set in stone. It is important to note that even those who have a growth mindset don’t necessarily believe that every person can become a genius or prodigy if they just study hard or practice more. Identify Whether You Have a Growth or Fixed Mindset If you’re wondering whether you have a fixed or growth mindset, there are some questions you can ask that can help. Final Thoughts Sources:
