Since the introduction of Carol Dweck’s landmark work
in mindset, many scholars have studied the impact of
a change in mindset on learning, behavior and health. More recently, research has shown that widescale and
lasting improvements in learning come about when
mindset ideas are infused through teaching and
assessing and are specific to the subject being
learned.
This Special Issue seeks to showcase and
disseminate the latest advances in research on a
mathematical mindset approach. We invite
submissions that investigate the impact of such
approaches on teaching, learning and collaborative
problem solving. Relevant contributions may explore, for example, how mindset can be embedded in
instructional practices and task design; fostered
through collaborative groupwork; developed via
games and classroom activities or supported through
curriculum development and school design.
