mindset: The New Psychology of Success. Carol S. Dweck, Ph.D.

Chapter 7
-Stay away from praise that judges talent or intelligence bu rather praise growth and practice and perseverance
-"If you try hard you will do the best you can and that is the most important thing"
- PG 181 very good about teaching children how to fail- could have come in handy for me at tennis as a kid
- Normal kids misbehave ever 3 minutes
-Don't judge, teach. It's a learning process
- Discipline should be about 'I will help you think and learn" rather than "I will judge and punish you"
- FM teachers give up on students based on stereotyes before they have even met them
- GM teacher tell students the truth and tell/help them fill the gaps (hard work)
-FM teachers think they are a finished product- school is for teachers learning too
-Success can knock you into a fixed mindset
