LibGuides: Getting to Graduation with Belonging and a Growth Mindset: Resources

Resources from our Team

Student Preassessment
Have your students record their beliefs on intelligence on the first day of class. Have them put their answers in an envelope and write their name and the date on the front. At the end of the semester, return their answers and have them reflect.

Belongingness Intervention for your Campus
Design a Video for your campus about belonging. Ask students the key questions to embed the concept of belonging and the difficulties of all transitions in our lives, and how they get better with time and effort.
