A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Students’ growth orientation comprises personal best goal setting, mastery goal setting, and growth mindset. This presentation shares recent findings about the role of growth orientation in students’ academic wellbeing and the impact of teachers in this process. Through diverse research methodologies—including longitudinal and multilevel designs that harness student and teacher perspectives on growth orientation in the classroom—the presentation will identify approaches to instruction and classroom attributes that foster students’ growth orientation and the academic consequences of this. Practical responses relevant to these findings will also be discussed.
