Growth Mindset is a term coined by Carol Dweck to describe a particular way that we can view intelligence. It differentiates between growth and fixed mindsets.

A growth mindset can empower a child’s capacity to learn and grow. Adults in a child or adolescent’s life have enormous capacity to direct them towards the happy headspace of a growth mindset.

Research shows that the older a child becomes the more likely they are to have developed more of a fixed mindset. Having a fixed mindset can limit their potential to learn and grow.

Growth Mindset is an understanding of the science of neuroplasticity and in this presentation you will learn strategies, language and practices to help grow our brain.
