Mente Sin Límites: Aprendizaje Sin Fronteras

Jo Boaler

From the moment we enter school we are taught that our brains are fixed entities, capable of learning certain things but not others, and that this is all exclusively conditioned by genetics. This notion haunts us into adulthood, when we tend to simply accept established beliefs about our abilities (such as that we are bad at math, or that we are not 'creative types'). These damaging and--as it turns out--false ideas have affected our confidence and limited our options. This authoritative yet accessible book sets out to debunk those myths by revealing the six keys to unblocking our vast learning potential. It is an invaluable resource for educators and parents alike.
