In this episode, Erin Wibbens and I discuss the article What Shall we do about Grit? by Marcus Créde. We unpack the construct of grit and how it is similar to other ideas like persistence and resilience. We explore problems with measuring grit, interventions to improve grit, and why we feel that other constructs have more promise. The article can be found here: <a href="https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.3102/0013189X18801322" rel="noopener">https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.3102/0013189X18801322</a>

What Shall we do about Grit?

We are Monica Kowalski and Erin Wibbens, professors of education working with beginning teachers in Catholic schools across the country. We believe that teacher formation is an ongoing process that includes learning from current research. In each episode, we will unpack a work of current educational scholarship and discuss applications for classroom teachers. Special thanks to our sound editor and theme music creator, Joe Stone.
