#whatisschool is an award winning edchat space where people can express an unbiased response to questions about schooling, where educators have a voice in shaping the future through their experience, recommendations and interests. Join us Thursdays 7pm ET / 11pm GMT / Friday 7am SGT/WA (Perth) / Friday 9am AEDT / Friday 11am NZT.
Hello #whatisschool! Phil from Northern Virginia I teach 6/7 US History I&II at @JWMSGoCougars with @ERobbPrincipal. I am also the founder of #waledchat (Thurs @ 9pm ET) and Edusations (Youtube). Thrilled to be here.
Kevin here a recently retired Teaching Principal with Irelands first and only Primary School STEAM Room.STEAM was my Curriculum Code was my text #whatisschool
A1: Big emphasis is that mindset is a choice. Sometimes it is a simple reminder that today is a good day to have a good day. #whatisschool@ERobbPrincipal
A1: The biggest thing for me with mindset is simply remembering that it is a choice. I choose positivity, kindness, and belief in myself & others. #1 strategy=pay-it-forward.
#whatisschool
A1: I follow the golden rule! When I’m doing assignments, writing responses, or in any way communicating with others. I set my mind in the way I want others to listen to me: open, willing, and understanding. #whatisschool
A1) I focus on the process -not the result, embrace the word ‘yet’ . Look at things from many perspectives, try new things, push myself outside the comfort zone. I know that it’s my choice and effort to create what I need #whatisschool
A1: One thing I do to choose my mindset is think about the way I am thinking. If I notice myself using mostly negative or positive talk, that can affect my overall mindset, and whether or not I need to change it. #whatisschool
A1: I choose to see the positives and look for bright spots. It’s not always easy and at times I get it wrong and become negative and frustrated. But my choice is positive #whatisschool
A1 All about the morning routines! Win your morning and you win the day....exercise, reflect, put positive thoughts in your mind before it gets flooded with the craziness of the day #whatisschool
A1: I studied it and read the book a couple of years ago, so I now can recognize when my mindset needs to be reset!! #whatisschool Some days it’s harder than others!
So many amazing people today at #whatisschool - don't miss the unique and exciting opportunity to grow your PLN by following and connecting with each and every person #growPLN
The idea is to declutter your mind when in yoga. I try to pay attention to the mantra: take your practice from the mat to life off the mat. #whatisschool
A1: I try to stay positive every day. I don't want to bring negativity or my other problems into the classroom, because they rub off on the students. Also being open and honest with myself and students about my mindset. #whatisschool
Carolyn from Maine, USA. Former 2nd and 6th grade educator currently pursuing a M.Ed. and anxiously awaiting a chance to get back into a classroom!#whatisschool
A1 To look at the situation from different perspectives, be solution minded and to identify the positive. A #4th grader told me last week that we have the ability to ‘choose our own moods and change our mindsets’. She hit the nail on the head. #whatisschool
A2: Your mindset about what your assessing changes how you approach it. What are you looking for from the students? Are there different ways they can demonstrate their learning? #whatisschool
A2: Your mindset about what your assessing changes how you approach it. What are you looking for from the students? Are there different ways they can demonstrate their learning? #whatisschool
A2: Adopting a growth-mindset helps us see that all students can achieve. Grades are no longer something etched in stone, but a fluid record outlining steps students are taking toward learning. #whatisschool@ERobbPrincipal

A2: Adopting a growth-mindset helps us see that all students can achieve. Grades are no longer something etched in stone, but a fluid record outlining steps students are taking toward learning. #whatisschool@ERobbPrincipal
A2: No assignment or project should ever be about the grade. Mastery isn’t sought in just one attempt but in the attempts that follow the initial one utilizing the inspired creativity that comes from never seeing failure as an end point.
#whatisschool
A1: I remind myself of my choices and where those choices may take me. Staying positive and finding the silver lining is always what keeps me where I need to be. Also, sleep. #whatisschool
A2) mindset is essential when assessing students. I focus on the small achievements and empower them. Mindset also splits big tasks in smaller micro goals that become more achievable. #whatisschool
A2: growth mindset should allow for revision and reflection before grading. Too often grades are given w/ NO opportunity for growth/improvement #whatisschool
A2: When we see grades as permanent, we reinforce fixed mindsets, our own, our students, & their parents. Creating space and time for learners allows S's learning to be on a continuum vs. a single point of success or failure. #whatisschool
A2. As a teacher-librarian, the results are shown in more independence and final products.
Joy comes when student helps another student or teacher or me to learn.
#whatisschool
A2 #whatisschool Incorporating Growth Mindset in all that we do at school helps some students to take risks with assessments. Also, this helps them to know that the wrong answers help them to set goals and work on those goals.
#whatisschool A2 an open mind to new ways of doing things gets students innovating and teachers inspiring. Grades and assessments will improve when students have a growth oriented mindset leading to confidence and motivation
A2: When we see grades as permanent, we reinforce fixed mindsets, our own, our students, & their parents. Creating space and time for learners allows S's learning to be on a continuum vs. a single point of success or failure. #whatisschool
A2: Direct impact on grading and assessment is difficult to show evidence of but indirectly as a teacher, we all know those students who think, act and ARE positive and as a result are ultimately more successful #whatisschool
A2: if I grade half of my students projects after a long day of work, and the other half the next morning when I’m refreshed and ready to go, the grading won’t be consistent. It is important to remember that our state of mind can impact how we grade. #whatisschool
A2) I think one of the biggest impact is that both Ts and Ss let go of concerns about how we are performing relative to their peers, and enjoy observing their own growth and learning. Helps to pause , think, reflect on learning in a more holistic way not as numbers #whatisschool
A2.Our pupils forget most of what we teach them.They will however remember us their teachers forever.Lets be good and kind to them.A kind word can last a lifetime and I know #whatisschool
A2b: important Ss have opportunities to grow/improve so they do not attach self worth to their grade. Numbers/letter grades should never define our Ss #whatisschool
A2: When we see grades as permanent, we reinforce fixed mindsets, our own, our students, & their parents. Creating space and time for learners allows S's learning to be on a continuum vs. a single point of success or failure. #whatisschool
Students only look at their grades. Maybe grades are important for us. Students need to take on the feedback and act on it. #whatisschoolhttps://t.co/6cEQyutcFk
#whatisschool My strategies are reflection- feedback and mindfulness. The more I look at my growth and my need for guidance the more inspired I am to take risks and explore new opportunities
A2: Mindset creates the lens through which we view assessing and grading, as well as our students. Working to create a mindset of growth and progression can reframe the fear and stress of grading and assessment for students. #whatisschool
A2 no limitations in what students can achieve, reflect on what your feedback communicates and does it match your beliefs about growth mindset #whatisschool
A2: Would like to think it has no impact…it does. When I’m in a positive frame I see things differently and I think my students benefit. The opposite is also true. #whatisschool
A2 A growth mindset helps us to see grades or assessment as a moment in time and as a reflection of where we need to go next. Assessment FOR Learning is where a growth mindset lives. #whatisschool
https://t.co/BpGyQEeOwt Primary level in Ireland we have become obsessed with testing and test results.We are in danger of teaching to the test.Lets teach from the heart and not from the book or to the test #whatisschool
A2: a right mindset impacts significantly given that it will become the foundation of a respectful relationship, and learning can only occur in an environment where those types of relationships are present #whatisschool
A2 It is up to the teacher to make sure that #positivity is in every classroom. I am starting a n upcoming PD session with a focus on positivity. #whatisschool
A2 A growth mindset helps us to see grades or assessment as a moment in time and as a reflection of where we need to go next. Assessment FOR Learning is where a growth mindset lives. #whatisschool
#whatisschool a1 Strategy to good mindset and answers here are marvelous. For my two cents. Stay hydrated and breathe some oxygen rich air. Those moments that you pause to look after self are a way to maintain good mindset or reset as needed
#gratitude to h20
A2 mindset establishes the way that we use assessment. Letting kids take assessments over to show mastery shows we value learning over grades. Also being flexible in how we assess along the continuum of mastery and looking at where ss are versus where they were #whatisschool
A2: I think we have to believe in what we are teaching and assessing in order to have a positive mindset about grades and grading! Students deserve it! 🙏🏻#whatisschool
A3: Show them how their thinking effects them. Help them understand that they are in control of how they view or approach a situation, and only they can choose. #whatisschool
A3: Model that choice-making process. Actions speak louder than words. When others see the way you react and the choices you make, you can lead them to making those important choices toward a growth-mindset. #whatisschool
A1: I always make an intentional choice to be positive and kind, even when things are not going my way. I have a reputation for being "nice" because I always set out to make others' days better. #whatisschool
A3: I will always recommend this awesome TED Talk about growth mindset from Carol Dweck! I think the best way to inspire others is teaching them the power of “yet” https://t.co/4L9cb1HUOX#whatisschool
I teach teachers how to move toward a student-centered classroom where choice leads to amplified voice and wonder is a key factor in inquiry. #whatisschool
A3) Sharing your passion/ joy for learning is a great way to inspire others to choose their mindset.When you're not seeking the approval of others, you're able to celebrate your learning. Model Risk taking and cultivating new skills and experiences #whatisschool
A2: we need a mindset that reminds us that as teachers we grade and assess to find out what students know, not what students don’t know. Big difference! #whatisschool
If you're a T that doesn't offer re-assessment, doesn't give Ss actionable feedback, and doesn't reward them for learning from mistakes, then don't talk to me about how you value a growth mindset. Show me how you grade/assess, I'll tell you what you value. #whatisschool
A3: Be kind, be positive, be the change and inspire others to do the same - when positive people influence others, change is only a short time away #whatisschool
A3: Inspiring others often comes from modeling a positive/growth mindset. Never be ashamed to tell of your setbacks. Failure is never a negative unless it is where you stop.
#whatisschool
A3: I'd be all like, "Hey, buddy - you should choose your mindset." And they'd be all like, "what do you mean?" And I'd be like, "Let me show you!" #whatisschool
Stay positive and help those around you feel confident in trying new things by trying new things yourself. Lead by example. Inspire others by being brave to share your successes and failures #WhatIsSchool
A2 A growth mindset helps us to see grades or assessment as a moment in time and as a reflection of where we need to go next. Assessment FOR Learning is where a growth mindset lives. #whatisschool
A3: I remind people what is meant to be is meant to be. There are things we can't control, and we should focus on changing the things we can instead of just complaining about it. #whatisschool
A3 Model your own growth mindset by learning alongside someone else. Share your mistakes, show your vulnerabilities and then model how to move forward, learn new things and/or overcome roadblocks. Others will catch on and be empowered! #whatisschool
A3. Be positive! It’s contagious. Everyone controls their own mindset. Knowing that you can be a great mentor to another teacher and a role model to a student can keep you in check #whatisschool
A4) Creating growth mindset space helps students feel safe and take risks in class. I would get quiet classes if students were afraid to speak in #Spanish#whatisschool
This makes me think about the power of helping others to notice their impact! Highlight how they are making a difference in the worlds around them. #whatisschool
A3: Show them how their thinking effects them. Help them understand that they are in control of how they view or approach a situation, and only they can choose. #whatisschool
A2: For the teacher or the student? I believe both need a positive mindset, a can-do attitude, and an understanding that there may be failure. Both the teacher and the students should have a flexible mindset geared toward second chances. #whatisschool
A3 #whatisschool For me making frequent personal contact through 1-minute check ins and sharing my stories of Dyslexia really makes connections with students- when they trust they believe in themselves and keep an open mind
A3: Show them how their thinking effects them. Help them understand that they are in control of how they view or approach a situation, and only they can choose. #whatisschool
A3. As most teacher-librarians will tell you, we are also good listeners. Sometimes another teacher just needs a listener (not a classrm teacher, not an admin) to get back to a better mindset.
#whatisschool
A3. Model the mindset you’d like others to adopt. Being the best version of yourself and naturally being a role model is more powerful than words or convincing someone to see your vision. #whatisschool
#whatisschool a3 Lucky for me I work with a very focussed, mindful bunch but the offer to release someone or make a tea does help keep the teaching mind mindful. Sharing those practices wirh students makes it go even further
#TeacherLife
A3: One thing I have had to come to terms with in the past fifteen years is how remarkably well things go in the room and the building when I need to be away. But, without any one of my students in the room, I miss them. Their presence. What they might share today. #whatisschool
A3: modeling your own growth mindset and giving encouraging words to students, especially on assignments and through grading #whatisschool#EDUC331@Bigler_Michelle
A3: Its hard. Others need to see the impact their mindset has on how they view things. If they don’t believe it has an impact, then why should they change it. I guess I simply look for the positives in most situations…most of the time! #whatisschool
A3: Create an environment where learners - T's & S's - know they can safely innovate, safely disrupt their routine so they can move beyond traditional boundaries and make change leads to powerful learning experiences! @ERobbPrincipal#WhatIsSchool
A3: I will always recommend this awesome TED Talk about growth mindset from Carol Dweck! I think the best way to inspire others is teaching them the power of “yet” https://t.co/4L9cb1HUOX#whatisschool
A3 By just modeling it, share experiences, risks, our growth and be a source of support for our colleagues and especially our Ss, I often share my struggles and how I pushed through #whatisschool
A3: For certain students, when my typical tricks didn’t work, we turned mindset into a game. They created a super hero alias for themselves and I was their sidekick. Their villain was whatever they were combatting. (Second Grade) #whatisschool
A3: Be a model of that. Let them see you make those positive choices even when things are not going according to plan. Let them see that you get frustrated, too - but show them how you can respond to those frustrations in positive ways. #whatisschool
A3 Students need positive role models to emulate. Teachers are human with frustrations just like students. We do need to share our triumphs and misses with our learners. #whatisschool
A4: if Ss are confident, resilient and empathetic, the sky is the limit! Their well being is most important. Boost them up and they will soar #whatisschool
A4 The trajectory of learning depends on what path a student takes-with positivity a student can thrive and become a lifelong learner. Teacher as facilitator becomes the guide. #whatisschool
A4: Mindset can change a student's trajectory by fostering their belief in achieving greatness. Thoughts that they simply aren't good at something are gone. The power of YET has replaced them.
#whatisschool
A4: If they think they can do it, they can. By believing in themselves, they are able to do more than they thought possible. The opposite is true as well. #whatisschool
A4: Kids know. Especially older kids. They know if you have a "occupation" mindset. They know this is your J-O-B. What if the students sensed your "vocation" mindset? And they began to see and to realize that teaching was your JOY? #whatisschool
A4: The same way a teacher can change a students trajectory - all that it takes is one positive influence, one experience or one moment to change the future forever #whatisschool
A4: Showing a student you care and believe they are smart gives them hope in themselves! That one teacher can cross their path and change their lives forever. #whatisschool
A4 it can change the direction and attitude that a student takes when they feel they can do it, even though it may not happen over night, focus on the power of yet and steady progress onward #whatisschool
A4: it can change it in miraculous ways. It helps students accept mistakes as learning steps and can provide the stamina and motivation to keep going. Same for teachers! #whatisschool
A4 Love the two sides of the coin Paul. Occupation mindset versus vocation mindset. It lifts one out of the routine into the passion phase of teaching. #whatisschool
A4: It could be the difference between giving up and trying again. This is where it is so important to support, encourage, forgive, and not punish students when they "fail" by showing them failure is simply part of the learning experience. #whatisschool
A4: If they think they can do something, they will work hard to get there. They will ask for help and guidance. If they think they can’t…they likely won’t. #whatisschool
A4) ability to choose your mindset and create your life is actually an empowerment. Depending on what mindset a student choose, a student can have a hope or end up feeling despair #whatisschool
A mindset is a path- when it is illuminated and manicured students are more likely to venture down it. When we prune and groom with inspiring flora - we encourage them to explore #whatisschool a trajectory needs a starting point and when that is trust- growth is inevitable
A4: It could be the difference between giving up and trying again. This is where it is so important to support, encourage, forgive, and not punish students when they "fail" by showing them failure is simply part of the learning experience. #whatisschool
A4: It can make a huge impact! After a Growth Mindset Unit I’ve seen how Ss can change their mindset to tackle a subject that is extremely difficult for them. They need us to reteach and remind but it can be a game changer! It made me a believer!! #whatisschool
A4: When students believe they can achieve, they put in the effort. If we teach our students to persevere and continue to put in the effort they will succeed! THE POWER OF YET!! #whatisschool
A4: Our S's = “And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.” ― Roald Dahl #whatisschool
A4: It could be the difference between giving up and trying again. This is where it is so important to support, encourage, forgive, and not punish students when they "fail" by showing them failure is simply part of the learning experience. #whatisschool
A4. Got excited yesterday when a student showed me how something worked that I honestly did not know. Students noticed. Plus, I recommend making mistakes because students learn a lot when YOU fail too.
#whatisschool
A4: Students need to learn that a growth mindset is different to a positive mindset. Future thinking to make a change and a difference is what we need in our society today #whatisschool
A4: Ownership of mindset and the ability to use the tools that have been taught or created to manage it determine not just learning trajectories, but life trajectories. The ability to change a mindset is a resiliency that outlasts formal education. #whatisschool
A4 a mindset is similar to a value system. If we as a school have a mindset that values learning, sees all learners as capable, believes in the power of “yet” those messages will become the language of the school and it will be harder for the naysayers to ignore #whatisschool
A4 #whatisschool When we see potential and highlight endurance students feel accepted and appreciated- this builds community and community is the foundation of learning and growth
A4: Students need to learn that a growth mindset is different to a positive mindset. Future thinking to make a change and a difference is what we need in our society today #whatisschool
A4) encourage students to try their best, take risks to do things in different ways and being positive will help them to achieve their goals and be more productive #whatisschool
#whatisschool a4 Building a positive, good, focussed mindset has helped one of my students get sick less often, probably because they felt more in control. They are also on time these days, busting a move to get a goal done. It's all good stuff.
A5: Growth-mindsets can build a positive school atmosphere. It can build a place where adults and students can come into school with a desire to promote learning. #whatisschool@ERobbPrincipal
A5: When a school culture is collectively positive, kind, and growth mindset oriented... students feel the difference. They know they are supported in every room. I can't do this is seldom heard, often replaced by "what if I..."
#whatisschool
A5: Culture is the way we do things ‘around here’. Its about attitude. Mindset. Ways of thinking and doing. Positive culture builds positive thinking. It begins with leadership. #whatisschool
A5. Having positive people in the building increases community and cooperation. People will want to help one another. Students will see it and also be positive #whatisschool
A5: Staff mindset is a HUGE factor in how a culture is created and developed. I have seen both sides of this and a school developing their mindset - sometimes you just have to move people on #whatisschool
A5: Mindsets reflect the people, and the people make the culture. Your culture is what you make it, and you need people who believe in your mission, personnel, students, and community to have a positive school community. #whatisschool
3A #whatisschool I am dealing with visual imagery 🎨everyday. I want my students to explore their feelings in difference ways. ASK how can they combine their feelings and create Artwork that have Value to them & theViewer. I use Positive Mindset questioning to start the project
A school culture is fluid & it changes with the attitude and personalities of its community. A school culture is more flexible and positive when it is open-minded, growth oriented & stable. Stability comes from a strength and fortitude found with a growth mindset #WhatIsSchool
Reverse the prompt. School culture has a huge impact on mindset. If your peers and admin only care about grades and tests, you're gonna have a harder time taking Ss soaking in that sewage and teaching them a different mindset. #whatisschool
A5. Mindset impacts culture in so many ways. Although positivity is contagious, negativity spreads faster. When we adopt a mindset for too long, we become that version of ourselves and it impacts everyone around us. #whatisschool
A5. I really believe that the Principal sets the school culture. IF the principal is open to mistakes & 2nd chances, ideas, options, feedback, etc., then the school thrives - students, teachers & parents.
#whatisschool
A5: mindset is crucial in developing a school culture where effective learning can take place for all, students and teachers. School leaders must make it their priority to talk about it, model it and expect it from others #whatisschool
A3: when teachers use the lounge as a place to complain about students/parents/administrators it makes the school less collaborative, and therefore less of a team. #whatisschool
A5) Same as students in class, if teachers feel safe and happy at school, then they are more productive and are willing to cooperate collaborate and share with others #whatisschool
I think losing is important in winning. Often said, I paraphrase, 'lose a Grand Final to win a Grand Final', not to say you need to lose, I feel it's an aspect of acceptance to help with the steps necessary in winning. I'm coming from a sports background.
Thanks for your time.
A5: Mindsets reflect the people, and the people make the culture. Your culture is what you make it, and you need people who believe in your mission, personnel, students, and community to have a positive school community. #whatisschool

#whatisschool
A4 #whatisschool Curriculum changes, standards alter, and new strategies are always coming to light- when a school looks for ways to improve and grow it stays current and fresh. This brings innovation and creativity. This is a positive school culture
I think @RachelTurneystl summed it up best with "Mindset IS school culture." The mindset needs to start at the top with the leadership, which then spreads to everyone else. Leadership with a positive mindset will have a positive school culture. #whatisschool
A5: It is a HUGE factor. To develop it you need to have people buy in and be a part of the journey - listen to them and make changes that positively impact everyday life. Sometimes it is the little things that makes the biggest difference #whatisschool
A5 culture is part of what we say, do and believe. Our mindset shapes those beliefs. Mindset is the lifeblood of school culture and you can tell right way what a schools mindset is #whatisschool
A5: By demonstrating a genuine desire to develop and contribute, students and staff can live kindly, learn continuously, and contribute meaningfully together. #whatisschool
A5: It is a HUGE factor. To develop it you need to have people buy in and be a part of the journey - listen to them and make changes that positively impact everyday life. Sometimes it is the little things that makes the biggest difference #whatisschool
A5: Mindset is what truly drives the school. Each room like a piston firing in succession and in time. A mission statement can be read on the letterhead by the stakeholders. A mindset can be sensed (and adopted) by the student in the leadership. #whatisschool
A5. You need to have Teachers, Students and Community understanding the why. If everyone is sharing the same messages it will make a huge impact on culture. #whatisschool
A6: Mindset matters because it affects everything! Every part of your day from your interactions to your learning/work is connected to mindset. Are you making a positive impact?
#whatisschool
Q6 Mindset drives how we interact with other humans and the relationships we form. We all know how important #relationships are! #whatisschool
Q5 Don't be a culture vulture. If you are unhappy in your workplace or with the field of ed #moveon#exploresomethingnew#findyourhappy
A6: Mindset matters because it affects everything! Every part of your day from your interactions to your learning/work is connected to mindset. Are you making a positive impact?
#whatisschool
A6: Mindset can inspire or defeat. It can create hope or take it away. It can build a positive culture or a negative one. We have the choice everyday. #MindsetMatters#whatisschool@ERobbPrincipal
A6: Mindset matters in every decision and every task completed in a day. Be positive, act positively, make a difference and grow to be better #whatisschool
A6: Mindset can inspire or defeat. It can create hope or take it away. It can build a positive culture or a negative one. We have the choice everyday. #MindsetMatters#whatisschool@ERobbPrincipal
A6: Because who wants to work with, teach, or learn from a bunch of Grumpy Gusses with defeatist attitudes and who have no vision for a positive future? #whatisschool
A5 School cultures with a framework of a positive mindset bring collegiality to
united forefront. Toxic environments are filled with negative mindsets. #whatisschool
Both in learning & in any real life situation, mindset really matters .While facing hardships, we have two choices
Have a fixed mindset, become wounded ,complain
Or
Have a growth mindset, become wiser, transform into a better human.
It’s our choice. #whatisschool#empowerment
A6. Henry Ford said it nicely - “Whether you think you can or think you can, you’re right.” Changing your mindset can change your life.
And if we can change our minds (which we do all the time), then we can change our mindset.
#whatisschool
Mindset matters because it is how we see the world and our place in it. It guides us to be adventurers and leave our comfort zones. It is our outlook. Our belief in ourselves. If it is sound and strong we can conquer our fears and push through our endeavors. #whatisschool
Agreed - it is different but I start and model my day in a positive mindset so when negative/ and failures happen it moves our Learning forward with Growth & Understanding. ✅👍🎨. #whatisschool
A4: Students need to learn that a growth mindset is different to a positive mindset. Future thinking to make a change and a difference is what we need in our society today #whatisschool
Q6: Let's play with the question. Why does mindset matter? Because. . .as matter. . . .the mind will set. Now. . .settle as an element still malleable or become--in time--truly "set?" The essence of "fixed." #whatisschool
A6 mindset matters because it impacts how you see and interact with the world. You see the glass half empty then you’ll always look for what you don’t have, but if you see the glass as half full you are grateful for what you have. Be grateful, see the good, believe #whatisschool
Hey #whatisschool if you want to keep talking and spend some time reflecting, let me suggest #waledchat! We start at 9pm ET and would love to have you!

A6 #whatisschool To me mindset does not mean the button is stuck on pause or fast forward- it is a button that can be reset in order to rewatch, slow-no and even brighten the contrast- this is mindset- pixels in motion #whatisschool
#MindsetMatters in education & in #workplace for w/out a #positive mindset work becomes routine-not invigorating. #positivity allows for a flow of information & ideas to affect change from old school ideas to innovative ones. After all we want to impact S success. #whatisschool
A6: We’ve all witnessed the impact of a negative mindset. Our Ss today need to understand the importance of having and keeping a positive outlook. It can be the difference between taking a chance that leads to success/happiness or always wondering “what if?” #whatisschool
I agree! Having a positive mindset in the midst of chaos can be a challenge, but choosing small moments to shift how you’re thinking make the biggest difference! #whatisschool
To all teachers... Growth mindset starts with you! I beg of you to please, oh please, do not talk poorly about a teacher, their teaching style, and their achievements in ear shot of students. You are a role model. Hope that doesn’t happen anywhere else! #whatisschool
A6 To all teachers... Growth mindset starts with you! I beg of you to please, oh please, do not talk poorly about a teacher, their teaching style, and their achievements in ear shot of students. You are a role model. Children need safety & trust! Teachers too! #whatisschool
#whatisschool Evan Robb & @LRobbTeacher will guest moderate #NYEDChat w/ me on "The Power of Positivity and Intentionality!" Don't miss this 1 because we are talking about one of the power words of connected colleagues=> #positivity! Spread the Word-Join us on 12.10.18 at 8pmEST
