So, teachers, do you have good or bad Habits of Mind? Pt 1 – Control

So, teachers, do you have good or bad Habits of Mind? Pt 1 – Control | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it

This post begins to look at the Sixteen Habits of Mind (developed by Art Costa) using the S.U.C.C.E.S.S. model. The S.U.C.C.E.S.S. model splits the habits of mind into:

* Sensorial

* Understanding

* Control

* Cognitive

* Exact

* Supple

* Silly

This post focuses on the "Control" habits, which include persisting, managing impulsivity and taking responsible risk. Each habit is looked from the perspective of a student and as a teacher. 

This is the first post of a series. The next post will look at the habits under cognition.
