Bolstering Independent Learning in Biology with a Growth Mindset
When new Covid measures at her school led to a 20% reduction in contact time with her pupils, Chris Bappoo from Banff Academy worried that her pupils’ passion for science might suffer...
To tackle this, Chris employed growth mindset techniques, in tandem with an approach called flipped learning, to maintain their interest.
