 The Cultures of Thinking project at Harvard released a new interactive graphic of the 8 Cultural Forces. All of the links used for the graphic connect to our RCS Think from the Middle website. This graphic might be just the tool you want to use when focusing on the Cultural Forces. https://123alexmuir.files.wordpress.com/2015/11/8-cultural-forces.pdf Last week I shared an article that outlined some common misconceptions associated with Growth Mindset. This week I want to continue our discussion of Growth Mindset and share some tips from the Teaching Channel on how to foster a community of Growth Mindset Learners. https://www.teachingchannel.org/blog/2015/11/24/fostering-mindset-learners-perts/?utm_source=newsletter20151128%2F Edutopia posted an article last week on how grading harms student learning that ties in to our recent discussion on standards-based learning. The author offers some interesting points to ponder and reflect on. He ends his post with a challenge: How can we grade and asses in a way that provides hope to all students? http://www.edutopia.org/blog/when-grading-harms-student-learning-andrew-miller?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=socialflow%20 If we teach today’s students as we taught yesterday’s, we rob them of tomorrow. –John Dewey
