https://www.educanon.com A superb online game which takes learners through Python coding activities. • Metacognition as part of the mentor/mentee relationship. • Growth Mindset Leaders as part of the student leadership model. • Growth Mindset isn’t magic, tailoring our approach for our weakest students. • Growth Mindset parent group – what are the challenges and solutions to GM at home? Most of these projects are in their infancy and are likely to evolve as we get to grips with the unique set of problems and opportunities that surround each of them. Establishing a Growth Mindset culture has definitely led to increased expectations of ourselves and each other to share our learning as teachers for the benefit of our students; this is a great uniting goal to have when inevitably things get busy and we have to make choices about our priorities. In summary I feel confident in saying that Growth Mindset is definitely here to stay!
