Description
Research on the power of growth mindset has made the leap from the psychology lab to popular culture. Growth mindset is the belief that a person’s intelligence and abilities can grow and improve with practice, and researchers have found that growth mindset exercises can help keep students motivated. But scaling up those interventions from the lab to real-life settings is challenging. Dr. David Yeager discusses the science of growth mindset and how it could help close academic achievement gaps.
