Mindset GPS Convening Registration

Why we’re gathering

The Mindset GPS Drive Thru Convening brings educators from across the California Community Colleges together to strengthen how we support student motivation, especially in high-stakes moments when learning gets hard. Anchored at Citrus College, our host campus, we invite faculty and staff from across California who are interested in learning more about learning mindsets to join us. Together, we’ll share and practice evidence-based, classroom-ready strategies that build key learning mindsets: Growth Mindset, Purpose and Relevance, and Sense of Belonging. Participants will leave with a shared framework, practical tools they can use right away, and clear next steps for sustaining motivation-building practices in their classrooms, departments, and campuses.

Learning Mindsets

Students’ beliefs about themselves as learners and their learning environment.
G

Growth Mindset

Belief that intelligence can be developed through hard work, the use of effective strategies, and help from others when needed.

P

Purpose and Relevance

Belief that one’s schoolwork is valuable because it is connected to a larger purpose and/or relevant to one’s life.

S

Sense of Belonging

Belief that one is academically and socially connected, supported, and respected.

Convening participants will be able to:

1

Identify and adapt successful strategies for motivating learners in their classes

2

Describe the value of students receiving motivational support across learning contexts and classes

3

Identify and discuss strategies for continued growth at the individual and department level
