[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our school focuses on growth mindset, but in implementation they put too much emphasis on "[b]its not about the grade; a B is good,[/b]" and it basically taught my kid that he could do no work, get a B, and that was "awesome! Great work." Not sure how that backfired, but it sure did. [/quote] Growth mindset teach that a B is okay. Also, it is true accomplishment builds self confidence but it does not have to be school accomplishment ... which is why top colleges have holistic models for accepting students. [/quote] But if you get a B without trying, what is that?[/quote]
