Amy K. Conley

Teachers, Mindset, Motivation, and Mastery (eBook, PDF)

Research Translated to K-12 Practice

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Growth mindset, recognition, mastery, purpose, emotional connection, intrinsic motivation, and metacognition: there is more to teaching literacy and children than books and lined paper. Research in positive psychology from the last 20 years can be translated to classroom practice. Each chapter summarizes the research and then works to make it applicable to the classroom, with charts of ideas based on age, examples of effective teacher talk, and stories and explanations from both practitioners and researchers.
