Jacque related mastery is a pain, as letting students know it is okay
to be wrong. That is true; some students
want to show that they are better at everything. I had a classmate that would always say he had
the right answer until one time the teacher told him that people make mistakes
and that it is okay. Not a single person
is perfect at doing everything they do. The
three laws of mastery are great to be related to education. One that I relate the most is mastery is a
mindset. As mention in the book there are
two different paths; performance goals and learning goals. The example given is a good example related
to education. Some students always want
to get that A in class, but others don’t care. It all depends on their motivation. We as teacher should let students know that
grades are important, but the most important thing is to learn the material
presented to them. Why? Because for
example, if a student does not learn how to solve simple equations he/she
will have difficulty solving higher level equations.
