National Resource Center for the First-Year Experience and Students in Transition
In recent years, growth mindset, resilience, and belonging have become popular topics for research and practice among college educators. The authors of this new volume deepen the conversation around these noncognitive factors that significantly impact student success. Along with offering support for the development of learning mindsets, this book contains strategies for faculty and staff to consider as they create initiatives, programs, and assessments for use in and outside the classroom. Informative features include: (1) Learning Mindset Stories, highlighting how students, faculty, and staff members dealt with issues related to belonging, growth mindset, and resilience; (2) Campus Conversations, providing questions for generating discussion among faculty, staff, and students on what institutions can do to incorporate learning mindsets with an eye toward student success; and (3) Next Steps, serving as a roadmap for implementing institutional change. Following a Foreword by Greg Walton, Preface and Introduction by Bryce Bunting, the following chapters are included: (1) A Rose by Any Other Name: A Common Language for Understanding Learning Mindsets (Doug Daugherty and Tim Steenbergh); (2) The Implications of Learning Mindsets for the First-Year Experience and Other Key Transitions (Bryce Bunting); (3) What Do Mindset and Belonging Interventions Look Like in the Classroom? (Amy Baldwin); (4) Mindset Interventions to Close the Achievement Gap (Doug Daugherty and Tim Steenbergh); (5) Changing Campus Culture to Foster Learning Mindsets (Latoya Lewis); (6) Professional Development to Foster Belonging, Growth Mindset, and Resilience (Latoya Lewis); and (7) Creating an Assessment Plan for Learning-Mindset Interventions (Amy Baldwin). A Glossary of Terms is included.
