What teachers say
Helpful Guide for College Kids and others
As a former professor responsible for assessment and accreditation of college programs, one of the most disturbing trends in student behavior over the past 25 years has been the steep deterioration in the mental toughness of students. Students have become fixed mindset, anxious, and frail, which severely restricts their ability to learn and grow as individuals. We actually had students who would freak themselves out so much after the first midterms, they would drop out of school. This book offers a very practical way to assess where a student is and gives them practical ways to become more growth mindset oriented. If you know a kid who is anxious, stressed out, and struggling to thrive, this will help you immensely. Too many kids are on SSRIs, stimulants, and committing self-harm.
Muy buena guia
Es una guía muy práctica que funciona tanto si eres estudiante como si quieres ayudar a repasar desde tu rol de profesor. Tiene muy buenos ejercicios con enfoque útil bien esquematizado y organizado y sus respuestas al final, lo cual lo hace aún mejor. Sentí que tenía toda la información necesaria sin exceso.
Inspirational, practical, and classroom-ready
CTE-2100: Positive & Growth Mindset for CTE Pathways is an outstanding resource for educators helping students build confidence, resilience, and self-awareness. The book’s structure, 21 lessons with articles, guided notes, reflection questions, and self-assessments, makes it easy to integrate into any CTE or SEL-focused curriculum. I love how it combines mindset development with career-readiness skills, helping students connect positivity to real-world success. Each activity encourages critical thinking while reinforcing practical life skills like goal-setting, perseverance, and problem-solving. The crossword and word search sections make learning fun, while the vocabulary and reflection sets deepen understanding. Everything is clearly laid out and teacher-friendly, with built-in flexibility for different classroom needs. Overall, this is a powerful, ready-to-use workbook that not only supports academic growth but also cultivates emotional intelligence and a lifelong growth mindset. Perfect for CTE instructors, counselors, and any educator committed to student success.
Great structure for prep
Preparing for exams in the CTE pathways can be challenging. Positive and Growth Mindset is a good prep guide including a well laid out structure of lecture notes, question and answer keys, and effective self-assessments. Would recommend for anyone preparing for the exam.
Inspiring and Practical Workbook for Students and Educators!
I found CTE-2100: Positive & Growth Mindset for CTE Pathways to be an outstanding resource for anyone working within Career and Technical Education. The workbook goes far beyond surface-level motivation—it provides real tools to help students develop self-awareness, confidence, and a proper growth mindset. What I like most is how structured and complete it is. The self-assessments help students identify their current mindset and areas for improvement. At the same time, the lecture notes and answer keys make it easy for instructors to integrate into class or independent learning. It’s clear the author understands both the challenges and the opportunities within CTE programs.
Comprehensive, Well Sequenced and Organize: Means Easy to Teach and Easy for Students to Learn
A growth mindset is so important. This workbook allows a teacher to more than teach the subject. This workbook helps the student go from ignorance to a solid basic understanding to actually developing the skills of a growth mindset. I especially like the suggested class discussion prompts and the four challenge scenarios at the end of each section. This is a must for any program.
Great book for educators in CTE programs
This book is an invaluable resource for educators and students who are in CTE programs. This book includes self-assessments, detailed lecture notes, and full answer keys that makes this tool extremely practical and useful. The content describes how to shift from a fixed mindset to a growth-oriented one, with real-world applications tailored to CTE fields including vocational training and skill development. Mindset transformation allows this book to stand out from the rest. Highly recommended.
Great resource and ready to use
Ready-to-use resource that goes far beyond the average workbook! The 21 lessons are not only well-structured and standards-aligned, but they also strike a balance between theory and practical application. Each unit is packed with engaging activities, self-assessments, guided notes, case studies, and even crossword puzzles—that keep students actively involved while reinforcing key concepts. Highly recommended!
An outstanding and comprehensive resource
This is an impressive book for teachers and high school students. CTE = Career & Technical Education, and many students will benefit from this resource. It has 21 lessons across a variety of topics (e.g., resilience, emotional intelligence). The lessons are engaging with puzzles and word searches. The self-assessments are very good. There are comprehensive lecture notes. It will teach students about having a positive and growth mindset. Overall, very well done.
Positive&Growth Mindset is great to me!
This book is absolutely amazing on the Positive and Growth mindset. I didn’t do it for the CTE part of studying, but just wanted to read something on Positive and Growth mindsets. I also love that they have guided notes and word searches to make it more fun and entertaining through the process of learning Positive and growth mindsets and reflections questions. This book is amazing if your open-minded to Positive and growth mindsets, which also teaches you about things like that as well. I hope other people can have the experience I had with this book.
