Mary-Jo Apigo, Kimberly Manner, and Vicky Nesia, all of West Los Angeles College, presented an interactive session on the 20-years of research by Dr. Carol Dweck and other scholars that have identified fixed and growth mindsets, two contrasting approaches on how individuals think about and behave in the world. The West Community College team demonstrated to more than 60 participants that successful interventions can change people’s mindsets and improve success and shared strategies and resources to create and cultivate a growth mindset that can change the way people view challenges, effort, obstacles, and criticism.
