Mindset Gesprekskaarten

Mindsets, thinking and behavior patterns, can range from a fixed to a growth mindset. It is possible to consciously work on a growth mindset, assuming that there can be development and improvement. You do this initially by learning to think differently: that it is okay to make mistakes, that you can learn from trying and that you can get better through practice. You will then notice that your feelings and your behavior will also change automatically. You not only think more positively, but also dare to do more!

The Mindset conversation cards explain how your brain learns, what you can do when someone criticizes you, how you can learn to think positively and so on. The questions on the cards encourage the student to actively work on a growth mindset.

The cards are intended for children in primary education. It is possible to work with individual students, or groups of up to four children. A teacher, parents or child coach can guide the thinking process and continue to ask questions, for example with challenge questions:
• What is the worst thing that can happen?
• Does it help if you keep thinking like this?
• What can you think better?
