TY - JOUR PY - 2008// TI - The mindset of teachers capable of fostering resilience in students JO - Canadian journal of school psychology A1 - Brooks, Robert A1 - Goldstein, Sam SP - 114 EP - 126 VL - 23 IS - 1 N2 - The assumptions educators possess about themselves, their role as teachers, and their students' capabilities play a significant role in determining expectations, teaching practices, and ultimately student happiness and success. This article provides an overview of the application of resilience principles in the classroom from the perspective of the mindset of effective educators. In their efforts to nurture resilience in their students, effective educators appreciate the life-long impact they have on students, acknowledge that all students want to be successful, and appreciate that the foundation for successful learning in a safe and secure classroom climate is the relationship they forge with students. Ideas and strategies are offered to assist teachers in developing a mindset capable of fostering resilience in students.
