This literature review will summarize fields of research that highlight both the negative and positive consequences of experiencing failure and will also introduce “failure skills,” which is defined as the key to producing positive consequences from experiencing failure. Examples of the “failure skills” are: Grit, …

The conceptual framework, Cross’s model of barriers to adult learning, was used to identify institutional, situational, and dispositional supports and barriers. A bounded case study design was employed to …

The Common Core Learning Standards were advertised as a pathway to a high-quality education for all American students (Common Core Standards Initiative, 2015; Supovitz & McGuinn, 2019). However, a public uproar occurred in the late summer of 2013 following the release of standardized “Common Core” test scores which showed an increase …

The comfort zone I created around my parents and our family home was a place my mom never imagined I could leave. I never imagined I would leave. Here, shielded from my perceived dangers, I felt happy and safe.
Using the method of Scholarly Person Narrative, I will tell the story of my development and growth into a stronger individual—mentally and physically. I will examine my personal history and explain how I found …

Also, the study will identify how students with high and low self-esteem view failure differently. Secondly, a review of literature will investigate the differences of how students with growth and fixed mindset approach failure differently, …
