Lab Safety Procedures for 6th Grade Science
Dweck describes two
different mindsets:
The fixed mindset
and
the growth mindset.
WHAT KIND OF MINDSET DO YOU HAVE?
- AND HOW IT AFFECTS YOUR MOTIVATION
Psychologist Carol
Dweck has studied
how people’s mindset
affects their actions
and approach to the
world.
People with a fixed
mindset believe that
intelligence and
personality are fixed
and unchanging
People with a growth
mindset believe that
intelligence and
personality can be
developed through
application and
experience
VS
Practice makes perfect! People
with a growth mindset define
success as progress and
improvement through application
and experience. This mindset
leads them to seek out challenges,
even though they may not always
know what they’re doing to begin
with.
Here talent is understood as a
quality people have or don’t have.
As a result, people with a fixed
mindset tend to avoid trying new
things or give up easily because
they don’t believe they can
improve through effort. They are
only satisfied with their efforts if
they are satisfied with the final
result.
If I have to
practice, that
means I’m not
good enough!
VS
Motivation
to learn
something
new
The more I
practice, the
better I get!
VS
Motivation
when there’s
something
they don’t
understand
People with a fixed
mindset equate
performance with their
own value. This makes
them afraid that others
will judge them as stupid
and incompetent.
People with a growth
mindset take
responsibility for their
own learning, and their
focus is on opportunities
to learn and develop.
No one can know that I don’t
understand this! Then they’ll
believe that I’m a failure!
I simply don’t
understand this! I’d
better ask for help
to make sure I get it.
VS
Motivation in
relation to
giving a
presentation
in front of
your class
I don’t know
anything about
that topic! I hope I
don’t come off as
stupid!
I’m sure it will be
fine. I’ll just read it
through one more
time and then I’ll
nail it.
VS
Motivation
when they
receive a
lower grade
than they
expected
Here criticism is seen as
feedback and an
opportunity for learning.
Criticism is taken
personally. People with a
fixed mindset tend to
feel attacked personally
when they receive
criticism.
But I didn’t have enough
time to work on the
paper, and my lecturer’s
assessment was really
unfair!
Oh well, never mind. I
should probably have
taken a more structured
approach to my paper. I’ll
just have to do a better
job next time.
Lab safety is the top priority in Mrs. Floyd's 6th-grade science class. Follow the guidelines, wear safety goggles, and be responsible at all times to ensure a safe learning environment. Practice lab safety to perfection and identify safety concerns accurately in hands-on experiments.
