One Dan Award, the highest standard education award in the world, the second registration will be closed on March 3 1. "A Dan Prize focuses on the international community, but it is based in Asia with the largest population and the fastest economic growth in the world. Moreover, Asia's economic transformation depends on education, and there is a lot of evidence, "said Li Jialun, president of the Yidan Prize Foundation. One Dan Award is awarded two awards every year: One Dan Education Research Award and One Dan Education Development Award. The winner will receive a prize of HK$ 30 million (about US$ 3.8 million), which is 3.5 times that of the Nobel Prize (165438+ 10,000).
The winner of last year's (2065 438+07) 1 Yidan Education Research Award was Carol S. Dweck, a professor of psychology at Stanford University. Carol Duwick devoted herself to the study of growth thinking in the past 10 years, and found that through practice, perseverance and hard work, people can have unlimited learning and growth potential. Such research has not only made outstanding contributions to academic research, but also developed practical methods to redefine education.
Carol Duwick said in an interview with the Foundation that her participation in this kind of research may be related to her study experience. In the sixth grade of primary school, the teacher ranked her seats according to her IQ. "Students are afraid of making mistakes, always appear smart ... and never make mistakes. How can they give full play to their talents? " Carol Duwick will use this bonus to invest in the research of 65,438+8,000 senior high school students in the United States, and observe how students can better participate in the study of STEM courses in universities through the practice of growing mentality.
