The Stanford Challenge

A growth mind is better than a fixed mind. A study at Stanford University showed the difference bettween two types of students minds. The fixed minds were not motivated to learn more. The growth minds did want to learn more.
This helps me as a future teacher be able to pick out the students who do want to learn. The fixed minds did not have to motivation to push themselves like the growth minds did. Hopefully I fit into the growth mind catagory.
