In this collection, I present my educational principles and strategies, which focus on promoting personal and professional growth for students and educators. Through these papers, I highlight the importance of adopting a growth mindset, integrating technology from the earliest stages of education, and fostering autonomy and creativity in the learning process.
In the Growth Mindset Plan, I explore the importance of adopting a growth mindset for personal and organizational success. Drawing on Carol Dweck’s and other researchers’ studies, we discover how a growth mindset fosters resilience and learning capacity in educators and students. In the context of our school, I propose the integration of ePortfolios to empower students, promoting creativity, innovation, and a sense of ownership in their learning. In addition, I detail the steps to transition from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset, underscoring the importance of listening to the voice of our fixed mindset, recognizing that we have a choice, responding with a growth mindset voice, and taking action based on this mindset.
The Learning Manifesto is a statement of my educational principles and goals. Inspired by the words of Paulo Freire, this manifesto sets out a clear and shared vision of what I want to achieve as an educator. My goal is to foster curiosity, critical thinking, and innovation in my students, helping them take control of their education from an early age. I highlight the need to integrate technology into primary education, preparing students for a digitalized world and promoting 21st-century skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and digital literacy. This approach not only improves student participation and engagement, but also prepares the educational community to meet the challenges and seize the opportunities of the future.
On my blog, you will find reflections and videos that can not only significantly influence the learning of technology education concepts but can also positively impact your daily activities. These resources are designed to foster autonomy, engagement, and the development of one’s voice and style. Through carefully crafted content, I seek to inspire readers to effectively integrate technology into their lives, promoting an innovative and personalized approach to education and personal growth.
This approach is based on adopting a growth mindset, early integration of technology into education, and promoting autonomy and creativity in students. My goal is to prepare my students for academic challenges and to become agents of change in the world.
