Becca shares why having a growth mindset alone isn't enough and introduces us to the concept of academic mindsets, which include the crucial elements of belonging, self-efficacy, and a sense of purpose. Together, we discuss practical strategies for language teachers to create a supportive and engaging classroom environment that helps both students and educators thrive.
We'll also revisit some key takeaways from our previous chat in episode 36 about the "Summer Bandaid Effect."
