As a result of this activity, participants will be able to: 1. "Challenge themselves to grow and develop their intellectual abilities through strategic hard work." 2. "Challenge negative gender-based or racial stereotypes about students' intellectual abilities." 3. "Reflect on their study strategies after exposure to growth mindset materials, in order for them to be strategic in their hard work at developing the abilities and traits they need to succeed" (LSA Inclusive Teaching Initiative, University of Michigan, 2018).
