Enriching Success via Grit and Growth Mindset: Exploring the currents created by personal perceptions of learning

Mindset, Grit, Enhanced Learning

Too many college students are searching for the easiest way to attain an A, resulting in minimal effort to achieve this goal and resulting in loss of the more important goal: learning. This session primes students for a growth mindset with implications for learning versus obtaining a grade. Participants should become more aware of the underlying currents created by mindset and how a growth versus fixed mindset impacts personal learning and success. Learners with a growth mindset will be equipped to maneuver the underlying currents of new knowledge needed to be successful in both professional and personal lives.
