Name: Sort the following into responses someone with a GROWTH mindset may have vs. someone with a FIXED mindset may have. Remember someone with a growth mindset views intellgience like a plant, something that can be nurtured and developed. Someone with a fixed mindset views intelligence like a cement block - this is all I have and this is all I can do! Fixed mindset Why do I need to put in effort? I know what I am good at and will stick to that. Challeging tasks - no thank you! I already know what I can do - I don't need any feedback. Who are you to give me feedback? Putting in effort - I don't think so! What if I fail, and everyone realizes I'm not as smart! Mistakes - eek! I rather not do something than make a mistake. Growth mindset Having to put in effort is okay as this way I get to learn new things I love challenging tasks! Mistakes help me learn and I now know how to do this the next time Feedback helps me learn what I'm doing right and what I can be doing differently - bring it on! I don't mind working hard and putting in effort - it helps me learn and grow!
