The Developing Adolescent and Creating a Positive Learning Environment

By
This session was more about the developing adolescent than creating a positive learning environment.  Having read The Teenage Brain , a lot of the information shared was not new to me.  One interesting take away - an MRI of a brain after eating sugar is similar to an MRI of a brain on drugs (I think it was heroin).  The few examples of creating a positive learning environment included incorporating movement and allowing for interaction.  I was hoping to take away ideas on how to get students who are hesitant to join groups and participate more involved.

She presented herself as human (and all of the faults that are associated with that) and wasn't afraid to identify singular mistakes that she made during her career; mainly buying into the idea early on that we should praise every child, often, and often times for things that they ultimately couldn't control (i.e. naturally smart). This was the prevailing educational thinking (even now in some circles) at the time (I still recall an undergraduate professor lecturing me on the evils of red pen on self-esteem). She went on to detail that she felt it her duty to insulate her students from failure or struggle. She summed all of these ideas up with one word, wrong. That led us to the not so new, but seldom used pedagogy of growth mindset. Debbie identified a few people as being responsible for helping her to shift her thinking from e...
