 ave challenge, value effort and persist in the face of obstacles? Acco
 rding to nationally recognized researchers Lisa Blackwell and Carol Dw
 eck, these successful students have a \"Growth Mindset\" and are maste
 ry-oriented learners. When students believe that they can grow their b
 rains with effort and practice, they too can develop a Growth Mindset.
 \n\nI'd like to personally invite you to join us at the 6th Annual LI 
 SEL Forum Annual Conference, \"Building Student Motivation and Achieve
 ment Through a Growth Mindset.\" Dr. Blackwell, our keynote speaker wi
 ll introduce us to Mindset theories and their application in schools. 
 Fostering growth mindsets in adults and students is directly linked to
  increasing motivation, effort and academic success, as well as develo
 ping a socially and emotionally healthy learning environment. \n\nThe 
 following link will take you directly to the registration brochure. We
  encourage you to bring a team of educators, parents and board of educ
 ation members from your school. The day will be filled with intriguing
  information and \"try this tomorrow\" practical applications.\n\nFeb
