Mindset Maniacs! Podcast

Dave Gates is back with us to unlock the secrets behind taking action on your goals, and how to keep yourself working toward a better version of you!

Author, teacher and librarian Annie Brock is sharing her top reads for teachers this summer to amp up their practices on teaching and learning. Topics include neuroscience and racism in education.

Trevor Ragan, founder of TrainUgly.com and The Learner Lab, helps us identify the ingredients of a growth mindset and explains what he has learned from top researchers in the mindset community. He brings so much knowledge about where learning begins, what gets in the way, and how we can take action to change our patterns of thinking.

Annie Brock and co-author Heather Hundley wrote the Growth Mindset Coach and other bestsellers on Amazon. These books are aimed for teachers and parents to explain how our brains learn at any age. She talks about how we should celebrate growth over grades, and move toward a more progressive way to educate, even at home!
