WHAT ARE HABITS OF MIND? A “Habit of Mind” means having a disposition toward behaving intelligently when confronted with problems, the answers to which are not immediately known. Qualities often associated with effective leadership
HABITS OF MIND Carol Dweck (1999) found that the highest achievers in school Have the highest vulnerability to helplessness Are most likely to believe their intelligence is a fixed trait Are more likely to want tasks they are sure they can do well Are more likely to blame their abilities and show impairment in the face of difficulties Aren’t well served in long-term learning such as in college or careers
(p. 12 Learning and Leading with Habits of Mind by A. Costa and B. Kallick)
One’s intelligence is the sum of one’s habits of mind – Laura Resnick (1999)

HABITS OF MIND IN THE CLASSROOMProblems will allow students to: have a plan or strategy before they begin the work. communicate their ideas to others. be aware of and can explain their thought process. push themselves to try things they are not sure they can do. think, then ask on a task
be given feedback and can change an approach to a problem. be open to multiple strategies to solve a problem. see the importance of accuracy and detail. work hard even when answers are difficult to find. Create, trust, and use standards for evaluating their own work.

TAKING A REFLECTIVE STANCE IN THE MIDST OF ACTIVE PROBLEM SOLVING
How can I learn from this? What are my resources? How can I draw on my past successes with problems like this? What do I already know about the problem? What resources do I have available or need to generate? How can I approach this problem flexibly? How might I look at the situation in another way? How can I draw on my repertoire of problem solving strategies?
