d

Answer to Question 2

Suggestions for using the influence of beliefs to increase students' motivation to learn include: 1) model a growth mindset, internal attributions for success, and control attributions for failure, such as making comments like, The harder I work, the smarter I get, and Hard work and effective strategies are the key to learning. If I don't succeed, I always figure that I could either work harder or work smarter. 2) Promote self-efficacy and success expectations with modeling and effective teaching, such as providing students with high-quality experiences and interacting with them in learning activities, combined with comments about the value of effort and perseverance. 3) Emphasize the utility value of what we teach, such as commenting that being good writers will help us in both school and life after school.
