About this listen

Mistakes are not the problem. The problem is the shame we attach to mistakes and inability to grow from them.

You have likely heard the adage, "Everyone makes mistakes." But what you might not have heard is that there are some predictable reasons why we make these mistakes. Knowing why we make mistakes can help us make fewer mistakes and ensure that when we do make mistakes they’ll be more of the more useful variety.

In Risk. Fail. Rise. teachers will learn how to address their own teaching mistakes, model with their own mistake-making, and improve their response to others' mistakes. Colleen shares what research studies say on mistake-making as part of learning and what that means for teaching. She provides research, examples, and tools that help teachers destigmatize mistake-making so that they and their students can do the real work of growth.

The more aware we are of why we make mistakes, what we can do to avoid unnecessary ones, and respond to useful ones, the more our classroom will be a place of risk-taking and growth for all students. Lay the groundwork for a mistake-welcoming school culture and embrace positive risk-taking and productive failure in your classroom. The outcomes for you and your students are worth it.

There are many things wrong with the education system. Ms. Cruz turns a much-needed lens how teacher deal with mistakes improperly. If you teach, anything in anyway, you will learn a way (or two) that you are making mistakes. Usually books about becoming a better teacher just makes me feel inadequate. Ms. Cruz, however, gave me hope that I can change something that I am doing, and it will help my students and myself. A note on the PDF: it is not handled in the normal Audible way. Skip to the last track and follow the directions to get to the PDF. Be prepared to take several extra steps to get there. The 18 minutes that you lose from your day will be worth it.
