Exploring Ritchhart’s Theory of Expectations in Developing Student Understanding

This session delves into Ritchhart's theory of expectations and its significance in fostering student understanding within Cultures of Thinking. Through jigsaw reading and presentations, we will explore five belief sets that shape our expectations and influence learners' achievements. We will align these belief sets with the IB Learner Profile, distinguishing between expectations for students versus expectations of students. The discussion will cover vital contrasts such as learning versus work, understanding versus knowledge, and growth versus fixed mindset. Prepare to engage with practical activities for deeper insights.
