Your Mindset and Grades: All in Your Point of View

I think changing your mindset you can change your grades, because i if your mind is set on finishing something & becoming better at something. You can pass all your classes, also if your the type of person to want to become better at things you aren't good at, you can also pass.


Problem
  • which students believed that their intelligence was unchangeable , & which ones thought their intelligence can grow.
Hypothesis
  • fixed kids can get build a growth mindset.
Experiment Design
  •  taught students how to study.
Data
  • the group of kids that been taught that intelligence can grow , can higher math grades. 
Findinging/Conclusion
  • Your brain can change , just like your personality. 



 I find the study conclusions credible , because i believe that you can fix a fixed mindset. I can envision myself getting better grades , if that's what i really wanna do. I have to have my mindset on becoming better in my classes & fixing my grade to graduate.
