Resource Repository
Faculty are invited to download materials for use in their courses.
The repository includes three types of downloadable resources, each designed to support you at different stages:
Informational Overviews
Background knowledge, definitions, and research summaries. Start here to understand the theory behind mindset-supportive practices.
Practice Overviews
Introductions to specific practices—what they are, why they matter, and how they connect to research. Get oriented before implementation.
Practice Guides
Step-by-step instructions for implementing specific practices with your students. Download and use immediately in your classroom.
Grounded in Research, Built Through Partnership
All resources were developed collaboratively between Motivate Lab and the Tennessee Board of Regents, informed by learning science and higher education research. These are not generic templates—they are research-backed tools designed for real classrooms with diverse student populations.
