Resumo: This paper reviews research showing the importance of changing students’ mindsets and mathematical beliefs, and the promising research that has shown the impact of infusing mindset ideas through the teaching of mathematics. Previous research has demonstrated increased motivation and brain activity in learners with a growth mindset when facing mathematics problems. This paper proposes a shift in focusing solely on positive mindset messages towards the reorganization of learning environments and teaching approaches, to what we call a Mathematical Mindset approach. It also presents the outcomes of a summer camp that was designed with a mathematical mindset approach and taught in 10 US districts and four countries.This paper reviews research showing the importance of changing students’ mindsets and mathematical beliefs, and the promising research that has shown the impact of infusing mindset ideas through the teaching of mathematics.

Estudos anteriores demonstraram um aumento da motivação e da atividade cerebral em alunos com uma mentalidade construtiva (growth mindset) quando estes enfrentam problemas matemáticos. Este artigo propõe que o foco seja alterado das simples mensagens de mentalidade positiva com vista à reorganização dos ambientes de aprendizagem e às abordagens de ensino, para o que chamamos de uma abordagem de mentalidade matemática. Apresenta também os resultados de um acampa­mento de verão que foi concebido com uma abordagem de mentalidade matemática e implementado em 10 distritos dos EUA e em quatro outros países.APM - Associação de Professores de Matemática2023-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.48489/quadrante.32534eng2183-28380872-3915Boaler, JoDieckmann, JackLoos, Riley Austininfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-01-04T20:45:44Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/32534Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T01:30:08.607054Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
