Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! In today's episode, we dive into some intriguing research on how we learn from failures and making mistakes. 

In this episode we discuss:

  • Why failure (and even embarrassment) is a big learning opportunity
  • How kids deal with their mistakes
  • The idea of a growth mindset
  • Active versus passive learning
  • Quizzing yourself in order to retain information better
  • The importance of deep diving into why you're getting certain questions wrong
