As you probably know, Growth mindset is the way in which people can think about intelligence in which it is something that can be grown, rather than a fixed mindset. Research shows that people with a growth mindset have a higher desire for learning, are more resilient, more intrinsically motivated and achieve higher. Examples of this are seen when students:

• embrace challenges
• perform better over time
• participate more
• ask more questions
• seek out challenges
• study more
• put in extra effort required to succeed
• value learning the right way over the easy way
• spend more time on difficult activities
• try new strategies
• seek help from other students or the teacher
