4.2 – Assessment for Learning and Growth Mindset: A Web Conference with Professor Andrea Guillaume

From the outset of the course, we’ve talked about the importance of the “growth mindset” as it relates to our professional lives.  Today, we are fortunate to hear first-hand from Professor Andrea Guillaume of California State University, Fullerton, who will help us better understand how we can adopt and promote a growth mindset in the context of evidence-based feedback.  During this live, one-hour web conference in Adobe Connect, Professor Guillaume will lead us in a series of activities that will not only help us to understand the growth mindset, but will also provide us with a context for incorporating this perspective into our peer and student feedback. 

Please prepare your computer as you did for our session with Laura Terrill last week. We ask that you take the following steps so that you are ready at least 15-30 minutes in advance of the start of the session.
