Growth-Minded Pivot to Online Teaching<\/strong><\/a>— from scholarlyteacher.com by Kathryn Smith and Todd Zakrajsek<\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

What is essential when one starts to teach in an unfamiliar arena is to keep an open mind, be open to change, and expect some mistakes.<\/p>\n

Now is the perfect time to embrace a growth mindset regarding teaching online. Carol Dweck, author of\u00a0Mindset: The New Psychology of Success<\/em>, states, “… growth mindset is based on the belief that your basic qualities are things you can cultivate through your efforts. Although people may differ in every which way in their initial talents and aptitudes, interests, or temperaments, everyone can change and grow through application and experience.”<\/p>\n

Having this growth mindset allows for a different definition of success, and that definition can change daily. Right now, you are likely in a position that requires you to reassess your educational practices, your teaching, and your content delivery method. You are facing challenges in learning a new skill set and an opportunity to model for your students how to grow as well.<\/p>\n

When you first started to think about moving your courses online, did your first inclination feel more growth minded or fix minded? Explain.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
