Academic Growth and a Learner’s Mindset
Marerika Monroe
“LEARNER’S MINDSET”
Definition: Having a learner’s mindset means considering every new experience as an opportunity to learn.
What keeps us from viewing new experiences as an opportunity to learn?
Let’s think of some things we were excited to learn even though we knew they would not be easy.
Part of having a learner’s mindset is being growth-oriented in your thinking.
“I can learn to do anything I want.”
“Challenges help me to grow.”
“Feedback is constructive.”
“My effort and attitude are key.”
“Yet is one of my favorite words.”
