In the era of ubiquitous computerisation and cheap automation what skills and competencies will students need to really shine? What dispositions will lead to success? In a guided introspection workshop, which I conducted for students of Vasant Valley school and Ramjas school, R.K. Puram (both based in New Delhi), I looked at these issues.
The way we deal with our emotions shapes everything that matters: our actions, careers, relationships, health, happiness and organizations. Getting hooked by our thoughts, emotions and stories inhibits us from thriving. Emotional Agility is essential for success in all aspects of how we love, live, parent and lead.

Carol Dweck at BayCHI, May 11, 2010: Mindset is a simple idea discovered by world-renowned Stanford University psychologist Carol Dweck in decades of research on achievement and success—a simple idea that makes all the difference. In a fixed mindset, people believe their basic qualities, like their intelligence or talent, are simply fixed traits. They spend their time documenting their intelligence or talent instead of developing them. Dweck's research also shows that praising intelligence can harm motivation by creating a fixed mindset. People also tend to believe that talent alone creates success—without effort. They're wrong. In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work—brains and talent are just the starting point. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment. Virtually all great people have had these qualities. Teaching a growth mindset creates motivation and productivity in the worlds of business, education, and sports.
Most people believe personality traits are fixed characteristics that are present at birth and persist throughout an individual’s lifetime. Recent research, however, indicates these “fixed” traits are simply the symptoms of a person’s belief system. These beliefs can be so strong, in fact, that they positively or negatively influence every aspect of an individual’s life: sports, business, relationships, parenting, teaching, and coaching.
According to Carol S. Dweck, one of the world’s leading researchers in the field of motivation, there are two main belief systems, or mindsets, that people can possess. These mindsets strongly influence the way individuals respond to success and failure, and in Mindset, Dweck uses research, examples of well-known business and sports leaders, and specific scenarios to demonstrate how changing one’s mindset can profoundly affect the outcome of almost every situation. Dweck also explains how understanding the basics of mindsets can help in accepting and understanding relationships and the people who comprise them

I created this presentation for a 3 hour motivation session for 240 civil service aspirants. These are the people who would one day be occupying leading positions in our Government's Administrative and other government service sections. Although many of the ideas and literature have been inspired and taken from various sources, and I'm deeply indebted to the owners of those information, I presented the same using a lot of examples and observations from my own experiences. I also used 3 movie clips as anchor clips in order to emphasize the messages I was putting across. If you need any further information about the presentation, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Leadership & Technology presenation to the Baltimore County Pubic Schools - Office of Fiscal Services Featuring Insights to Action, Social Media, Mindmanager, XBRL.
First we humans augmented our muscle - animal power, steam, electricity... which led to mechanisation and automation and changed the complexion of employable skills (manual labour became really low paying or extinct). And now we are augmenting our brain. Anything that can be reduced to an algorithm is better done by computers. So what skills and dispositions will help us shine in the 21st century?
How have desired educational outcomes evolved as the complexion of the economy has changed from agrarian, to industrial, to services based and knowledge-based? These slides give an overview.

How Homo fabers and Homo Ludens Learn - Gamifying LearningAtul Pant
How Homo fabers (those who love to create) and Homo ludens (those who love to play) learn. This presentation made in Oct 2012 at Vasant Valley school in New Delhi, to educators from the Learn Today group, describes how elements can be borrowed from games and how games can be used in the classroom to enrich the learning experience.
From blogs to books. Today, an academic or a researcher is no longer at the mercy of a publisher to get his or her work published. This presentation, which I made at Allahabad University in Oct 2012, describes various avenues available today for self-publishing books, ebooks, interactive books and multimedia courses.

How can teachers create a hybrid learning environment to augment their classroom teaching with online conversation and collaboration. This presentation, which I made at Allahabad University in Oct 2012, looks at the reasons why a hybrid approach is much needed and gives an overview of mostly free tools that can be used to create such a learning experience.
Knowledge Sommelier 101 - The Art of Curation in EducationAtul Pant
The growing abundance of quality learning resources available on the internet, in multiple formats to suit needs of different learners, implies that teachers need to become curators of content that they can use to enrich their teaching. This presentation, which I made at Allahabad University in India in Oct 2012, gives an overview of Art of Curation for teaching.
Web-based learning is emerging as the second strand of education, where the teacher or parent becomes a learner facilitator, the web becomes the classroom and the learner becomes increasingly autonomous. Borrowing from different learning theories this presentation suggests a learning framework for the digital age.
Next Generation Educated Person (#MSLFM11)Atul Pant
What does a 'Next Generation Educated Person' (NeGEP) look like? What forces are propelling the development of NeGEP and what are resisting? This presentation looks at the dispositions of and does a Force Field Analysis for NeGEP.
This presentation provides an overview of the new learning theory for the digital age - 'connectivism' and looks at why it is important for the 21st century.
From ‘I Learn’ to ‘We Learn’ – Social Media for Informal LearningAtul Pant
Social Media in Education - social media can act as a 'GLUE' that binds learners and fosters learning conversations that add coherence to otherwise fragmented knowledge on the web. Social Media can also act as a 'FILTER' to sift and find relevant information online.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

18. You are the Counselor
Your
friend,
Alisha,
who
is
generally
considered
a
good
vocalist,
was
going
to
the
inter-‐school
music
compe**on.
Although
she
was
a
li5le
anxious,
she
was
confident
that
she
would
be
among
the
top
three.
You
were
accompanying
her
for
support
and
encouragement.
Based
on
Carol
Dweck’s
book
‘Mindset’
http://mindsetonline.com
19. You are the Counselor
There
were
four
events
and
the
person
with
the
highest
score
would
be
the
winner.
Alisha
performed
well
but
others
were
be5er.
By
the
*me
the
compe**on
was
over
Alisha
was
not
in
the
top
three.
In
fact,
she
did
not
even
get
a
special
men*on
from
the
judges.
Based
on
Carol
Dweck’s
book
‘Mindset’
http://mindsetonline.com
20. What would you tell Alisha and why?
1. Hey
Alisha,
I
think
you
were
the
best.
2. You
definitely
deserved
a
spot
in
the
top
three.
The
judges
were
biased!
3. Reassure
her
that
it
was
just
a
music
compe**on
and
that
is
not
very
important.
4. You
definitely
have
the
ability
and
will
surely
win
next
*me.
5. You
didn’t
really
deserve
to
win.
Pause, Ponder, Discuss…
21. The
first
(you
thought
she
was
the
best)
is
basically
insincere.
She
was
not
the
best
–
you
know
it,
and
she
does
too.
This
offers
her
no
recipe
for
how
to
recover
or
how
to
improve.
From
Carol
Dweck’s
book
‘Mindset’
http://mindsetonline.com
22. The
second
(judges
were
biased)
places
blame
on
others,
when
in
fact
the
problem
was
mostly
with
her
performance,
not
the
judges.
Do
you
want
her
to
grow
up
blaming
others
for
her
deficiencies?
From
Carol
Dweck’s
book
‘Mindset’
http://mindsetonline.com
23. The
third
(reassure
her
that
music
doesn’t
really
ma5er)
teaches
her
to
devalue
something
if
she
doesn’t
do
well
in
it
right
away.
From
Carol
Dweck’s
book
‘Mindset’
http://mindsetonline.com
24. The
fourth
(she
has
the
ability
and
will
next
*me)
may
be
the
most
dangerous
message
of
all.
Does
ability
automa*cally
take
you
where
you
want
to
go?
If
Alisha
didn’t
win
this
meet,
why
should
she
win
the
next
one?
From
Carol
Dweck’s
book
‘Mindset’
http://mindsetonline.com
25. The
last
op*on
(tell
her
she
didn’t
deserve
to
win)
seems
hardhearted.
But
that’s
pre5y
much
what
you
should
have
told
her.
From
Carol
Dweck’s
book
‘Mindset’
http://mindsetonline.com
26. Carol
Dweck’s
work
shows
that
people
have
one
of
two
mindsets
about
intelligence
and
ability
(mindsets
are
beliefs
about
yourself)
• Either
they
believe
they
have
‘fixed
intelligence’
i.e.
their
abili*es
are
innate
• Or
they
believe
intelligence
and
abili*es
can
grow
through
hard
work
27. Fixed Mindset! Growth Mindset!
• Intelligence and talent • Intelligence and talent can be
are fixed traits
developed through dedication
and hard work
• Talent alone, without
effort, creates success
• Brains and talent are just starting
points, love of learning and
• Intelligence - if you have resilience matters more
it you have it, if you
• Years of passionate practice and
don’t you don’t
learning brings success
• You have to be flawless, • Stretching yourself and sticking
right away
to it, even when things are not
going well
• Much can be achieved through
years of passion, toil and training
28. For
people
with
fixed
mindset,
set-‐backs
are
trauma*c
because
they
destroy
their
self-‐belief
that
they
were
innately
intelligent
and
talented
They
do
not
admit
or
correct
their
deficiencies
29. People
with
growth
mindset
take
failure
in
their
stride
because
they
believe
performance
can
be
improved
through
hard
work
They
challenge
themselves
and
set
stretch
goals
and
hence
increase
their
abili*es,
even
if
they
fail
at
first

the
marshmallow!

33. The
Marshmallow
Experiment
In
a
longitudinal
study
done
in
the
1960s
at
Stanford
University,
a
group
of
four-‐years-‐olds
were
given
one
marshmallow
and
promised
a
second
one
on
the
condi*on
that
they
wait
for
20
minutes
before
ea*ng
the
first
marshmallow
Children
were
able
to
wait
for
different
periods
of
*me,
some
could
not
wait
at
all,
some
could
wait
for
4-‐5
minutes
and
others
for
a
longer
period
of
*me
34. The
Stanford
University
researchers
then
followed
the
progress
of
each
child
into
adolescence
and
beyond
and
found
that
those
with
the
ability
to
wait
longer
were
be5er
off
(e.g.
be5er
SAT
scores,
be5er
jobs
and
be5er
rela*onships)
The
experiment,
which
has
been
repeated
at
other
places
with
similar
results,
shows
that
the
ability
to
delay
gra*fica*on
in
exchange
for
long-‐term
achievement
is
impera*ve
for
life
success
35. The
experimenters
have
also
found
that
self-‐control
to
delay
ea*ng
the
first
marshmallow
is
based
on
children’s
ability
to
formulate
strategies
for
self-‐control
E.g.
some
children
said
that
they
thought
to
themselves
that
the
marshmallow
was
just
a
pain*ng,
it
was
not
real
and
hence
could
resist
ea*ng
it
36. • Self-‐control
or
ability
to
resist
tempta*on
is
good
for
standard
achievement,
like
maintaining
a
diet,
or
scoring
a
high
GPA
• But
for
really
high
achievement,
where
the
challenge
is
great,
like
solving
a
complex
social
problem,
or
becoming
a
celebrity
rock
star,
you
need
GRIT
37. • Grit
=
tenacious,
dogged,
perseverance
to
pursue
a
long-‐
term,
almost
impossible
goal
(Westpoint
Military
Academy
and
Spelling
Bee
Contest)
• Grit
is
opposite
of
being
a
dile5ante
or
dabbler
• Grit
is
not
abandoning
a
pursuit
because
something
novel,
or
an
obstacle
comes
up
• Grit
is
sustained
passion
38. • You
can
think
of
grit
as
the
stamina
to
learn
• Learning
is
like
running
a
marathon,
you
need
stamina
• Despite
boredom
or
disappointment
you
need
to
stay
the
course

44. Whenever
you
set
a
‘stretch
goal’
for
yourself,
you
feel
the
pressure.
To
relieve
this
pressure
you
can
either
lower
your
goal
or
you
can
move
towards
your
goal.

Senge’s

Discipline
45. But
while
moving
towards
your
goal
there
are
inner
conflicts
that
hold
you
back.
Typical
nega*ve
inner
conflicts
are
–
you
think
you
are
either
powerless
and
incapable,
or
you
believe
you
are
unworthy
i.e.
you
do
not
deserve
what
you
desire.

46. Inner
con(licts
of
a
learner
could
be...
Trying is the first step
towards failure
- Homer Simpson
Cynicism, Skepticism,
Frustration, Failure Fear of Failure or Ridicule
(what will other’s think of me)
Inertia to Act or lack of
energy and enthusiasm
Wrong Beliefs
47. Inner
con(licts
of
a
learner
could
be...
Lack of Self-Efficacy
Self-belief about lack of abilities, that
in-turn leads to lesser effort being put
into learning
Boredom & Anxiety
Ambiguity or Lack of Clarity
Focus on Problems not Solutions
48. Overcoming Inner Conflicts!
• The
moment
you
find
yourself
blaming
something
or
somebody
for
your
problems
you
need
to
immediately
pause
• Consider
if
it
is
not
some
inner
conflict
in
yourself
that
is
leading
you
to
blame
others
• Mental
structures
we
are
unaware
of
hold
us
prisoners
• Once
we
can
iden*fy
them
and
name
our
inner
conflict
(e.g.
I
think
I
will
not
be
able
to
achieve
my
goal
because
inside
me
I
believe
I
am
not
worthy
of
it)
their
hold
on
us
diminishes
• We
realize
we
have
a
choice!
49. Changing your Perspective
Once upon a time there was a
boy who was heart-broken
because he got ‘F’ grade in Math
and Science.
He thought to himself he was no
good at studies...
50. Changing your
" Instead of looking at the bad
Perspective
grades he considered his ‘A’ grade
in English"
" How did I get an ‘A’ in English?"
" Good study habits?"
" Hard work?"
" Multiple performance
opportunities (writing,
debating)?"
" Deep interest and
confidence?"
" He then applied the same learning
approach to other subjects"
" He got a ‘C’ in Math and Science
and a ‘B’ in History!"
51. In their book ‘SWITCH - How to Change
Things When Change is Hard’ authors
Chip and Dan Heath take a deeper look at
process of change..."
52. They look at the impediment to change as a
dilemma between ‘HEART and MIND’
and use the analogy given by psychologist,
Jonathan Haidt...
55. THE RIDER (mind or rationality)!
(+)"
- is a visionary (thinks long-term)"
- good at planning and direction"
- accepts delayed gratification "
(-)"
- Over analyzes (analysis-paralysis)"
- Self-supervision is exhausting"
56. THE ELEPHANT (heart or emotions)!
(+)"
- can provide energy and enthusiasm"
- responds well to positive emotions"
- love, compassion, empathy, loyalty "
(-)"
- lazy and unpredictable"
- desires instant gratification"
- negative emotions (loss of energy/
focus)"
57. To bring about change, you
need to appeal to both your
rider and your elephant!
62. • How
do
we
stay
focused?
• To
understand
this
let’s
look
at
play,
because
while
playing
we
are
usually
naturally
a5en*ve
• This
happens
because
our
mind
is
wired
such
that
it
seeks
variety
and
in
play
the
s*mulus
is
constantly
changing
Every
moment
of
a
tennis
match
is
different,
and
if
runs
are
not
being
scored
or
wickets
are
not
falling
then
even
cricket
becomes
boring
-‐
we
stop
paying
a5en*on!
63. Ellen
Langer,
Harvard
Professor
of
Psychology,
conducted
a
study
where
she
asked
par*cipants,
who
did
not
par*cularly
like
classical
music,
to
listen
to
classical
music
• One
set
of
par*cipants
was
asked
to
no*ce
three
to
six
novel
aspects
about
the
ac*vity,
like
no*ce
the
musical
instruments
they
could
iden*fy
• Another
set
was
not
given
any
instruc*ons
to
no*ce
differences
• The
Study
revealed
that
more
the
dis*nc*ons
drawn
by
careful
no*cing,
the
more
the
subjects
liked
the
ac*vity
• Thus,
the
more
we
deliberately
engage
with
a
task
the
more
interested
we
become
and
more
we
learn
64. • Langer
calls
this
a
‘mindful’
axtude
to
learning
-‐
the
opposite
axtude
is
a
‘mindless
rote’
or
‘autopilot’learning
• Connect
what
you
are
learning
with
your
life
and
make
it
more
meaningful
• Self-‐reference
Effect
-‐
informa*on
that
is
related
to
us
is
easier
to
learn
• While
studying
we
should
mentally
ask
ques*ons
about
the
topic,
look
at
the
informa*on
from
various
perspec*ves
and
relate
it
to
our
personal
life
or
of
someone
we
know
• By
making
informa*on
meaningful
we
remember
it
longer
65. Good
learners
know
how
to
make
learning
interes*ng
by
deliberately
bringing
in
variety
in
what
they
are
studying
For
example,
while
reading
a
book,
they
mentally
ask
ques*ons
and
try
to
answer
them,
look
at
the
book
from
various
perspec*ves
or
think
about
different
endings
to
a
story
67. The Learning Journey
1. Make
predic*ons
to
ac*vate
Prior
Knowledge
2. Build
curiosity
and
fire
up
intrinsic
mo*va*on
to
learn
3. Make
learning
contextually
relevant
4. Secure
cogni*ve
commitment
(for
the
learning
adventure)
5. Ac*vely
engage
with
the
learning
material
6. Make
connec*ons
(with
prior
knowledge
/
bigger
picture)
7. Update
Mental
Model

78. Factors that
In his book Drive - The Surprising
Truth about What Motivates Us
influence Intrinsic
author Daniel Pink suggests that Motivation!
the new operating system for the
21st century, or Motivation 3.0,
has three components:
– Autonomy: the urge to direct our
own lives
– Mastery: the desire to get better
and better on something that
matters
– Purpose: a yearning to do something
larger than our self-interest
