Fostering Mathematical Mindset

Jo Boaler's research indicates that the key difference between successful and unsuccessful students is less about the content they learn and more about their mindset. While a growth mindset is crucial, inspiring students to achieve high levels of mathematics learning requires cultivating a mathematics mindset.

So, how do we help students develop this mindset? In this session, teachers, instructional coaches, counselors, and administrators will learn strategies to create, support, and sustain a mathematical mindset in classrooms and schools.

Participants can earn 0.5 graduate-level credit by attending this workshop and completing a brief reflection. Additionally, attendees may receive up to three graduate credit hours for attending and applying the workshop's content to their classroom or school setting.
