Mindset - fixed or growth?

A pupil in my class gets upset when he makes errors in maths. This approach to learning reflects:

• Incremental Beliefs

• A sense of free will

• Entity Beliefs

A child with an incremental theory of intelligence will focus on _____ in the learning process:

• Their own marks

• The marks of other people

• Neither of these

A growth mindset leads to better achievement because

• it compromises mastery goals

• it increases negative responses to failure

• it leads to more effort in the classroom

Dweck suggested that individuals who have a deterministic view of the world are more likely to

• have a growth mindset

• have a fixed mindset

• embrace challenges

Individuals with entity beliefs develop a meaning system that focuses on

• outcome

• process

• challenge
