Growth Mindset

I have actually heard of Carol Dweck before from a previous class I took here at OU, although I never learned too much about her. I see myself in a fixed mindset for my school work in a way that, the more I work on one class, the more I learn. The classes I do not have a lot of homework, or assignments for, I do not learn as much. As obvious as that may seem, it is very hard for me to do well in some classes because of this. There are many classes where the only assignment are the exams, and because of that, I do poorly on these exams. My biggest challenges are in fact the exams for those said classes! It is very hard for me to do well on exams when I have not been doing much else in the class besides sitting in a lecture hall listening to a professor speak. I am very interested in the growth mindset and cannot wait to learn more about it! Due to these circumstances, I am currently worried about a certain class that does not have any assignment, yet two exams; a final and a midterm. So hopefully learning more about growth mindset will help me with my classes!
