OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
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.
