This probably makes Think+ Perspective the only magazine in the world to instruct students on both Habits of Mind and The Growth Mindset, two powerful paradigms of learning.

Growth Mindset: “when students understand that their abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work – brains and talent are just the starting point. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment” (Dweck, 2015)

Habits of Mind: “an identified set of 16 problem solving, life-related skills, necessary to effectively operate in society and promote strategic reasoning, insightfulness, perseverance, creativity and craftmanship”
