In the video, "Growth vs. Fixed" minds, the author conducted a research on the differences between fixed and growth mindsets in learning. The video was brief. She explained how the ideas worked and how research was conducted. In the study a class is divided into groups. One group was given study skills and a growth mindset skills, while the other was only given study skills.
During the experiment, there was a significant difference between the two groups outcome. The group with just study skills declined, while the other group benefited. I feel that if we teach students the concept of material it will stick in their minds longer and they will get a better understanding. Teachers should also make activities fun and interesting for students, so that they will be more interested in learning.
As a future teacher, this video was very helpful to me.
It allowed me to realize that by just giving students the tools to improve is not as helpful as giving them the concept behind the tools that have been presented.In my future teachings, I will twach my students the concepts along with the neccessary tools they will need to succeed in school.
