Student Beliefs

Students' analysis of their academic achievement has one of the highest effect scores: 1.44
Effective analysis of academic achievement centers on the student's self-efficacy: the confidence that they can learn. Teachers help students predict what they can achieve and then help them to achieve a bit more so they start to get a growth mindset; a belief that they can change and learn.
