Discussion Questions
-
Explain, in your own words, Dr. Black’s visual of a book in the middle of two Bibles. What is she illustrating with this visual?
-
The Bible is the most important among the other books. It reveals the truth and is important to achieve and attain a growing mindset.
-
She is saying that you and your teachings need to be surrounded by scripture. God’s word should be present in all of your materials you are teaching.
-
That the Bible is the ultimate for Christian educators come what may. For the other materials are swallowed by the Bible in other to produce intended result as it was the plan from the beginning.
-
She is illustrating the importance of keeping the Bible as a key part of the lessons we teach and classes we prepare for our students. It should be where we start and were we end.
-
Dr. Black’s metaphor of a book placed between two Bibles illustrates that all educational content should be viewed through the lens of Scripture. The Bibles represent God’s Word as the foundation, while the book symbolizes secular materials, which must align with biblical principles. This visual emphasizes that Christian educators should integrate faith into every aspect of teaching, ensuring that a biblical worldview shapes their approach to education.
-
What are some techniques you have used, or currently use, to encourage a growth mindset in yourself?
-
I often keep an open mind to learning new things. In taking these courses, I am realizing that the effort I demand of myself will solidify my path to mastering the ideas shared.
-
The reminder of just because I made a mistake, or messed up this time doesn’t mean that will happen every time. The reminder to keep trying and not give up. Also, the reminder that God has a plan and a purpose for me, and if I’m still here, then He’s not done with me yet.
-
I couldn’t be happier to have discovered the promotion of Carol Dweck’s book being used in this course. I discovered Mindset many years ago and immediately recognized I had become stuck in a fixed mindset. Seeing how much this faulty thinking limited me, I ran forward trying to tell everyone I could about this little book that would change your life. Presently, the primary techniques I use to encourage the growth mindset, is to keep Dweck’s principles on prominent display, both at home and in the classroom for encouragement and resiliency practice.
-
To encourage a growth mindset, I like to do my devotions and studying in a quiet place where I can be alone. I use various study tools such as commentaries or different versions of the Bible. I also like to research how other people have studied the same thing.
-
Remove distractions to be present. Try to learn something new or try something new each day.
-
What do you hope to gain from this course?

Ways to be an effective educator as well as incorporate God’s word into my curriculum.
-
Through this course, I hope to find effective ways to integrate a biblical worldview into all areas that I am asked to teach.
-
My hope is to find was to integrate God’s word in all areas of my curriculum.
-
I’m looking for additional tools and ideas to further incorporate biblical integration into the classroom to make an impact on the students.
-
I would like to grow in integrating a Biblical worldview throughout all my lessons in the classroom.
