*CDL research group seminar series* School Students’ Growth Orientation and Academic Wellbeing: Exploring the Roles of Teachers’ Instruction and Mindset
Part of Child Development and Learning – Seminar Programme MT22
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.
