Mindset works and brainologyBrainology is an online educational program initiated by Prof. Carol Dweck, offering free tool kits to help students learn better provided that they maintain growth mindset and self-confidence.
After studying the behavior of thousands of children, Dr. Dweck coined the terms fixed mindset and growth mindset to describe the underlying beliefs people have about learning and intelligence. When students believe they can get smarter, they understand that effort makes them stronger.
