is one in which Dweck and Blackwell did a workshop with seventh graders to instill a growth mindset in them. As a result of the workshop, the students gained more interest in learning, and they worked harder; and as a result of that, their grades improved. Other studies have shown that when we teach a growth mindset, not only that it improves achievements for students as a whole but it also narrows the achievement gap, because the effects are most pronounced for the students who face negative stereotypes such as minority students, and girls in math.
