Feedback Strategies


The Difference Between Praise and Feedback

This article talks about words that parents should or should not say to their children do to psychological reasons. When parents praise their young children, it makes them willing to take on new challenges in life. The article says to teach the child how to take positive and negative feedback in life to grow as a person. Ask questions about things the child is interested in. Encouraging feedback is a positive way to let your child know you appreciate them.


Be a mirror

Growth mindset is a large part in the development in children. A fixed mindset is counterproductive in a student’s mind. It causes a strain on the ability to work hard to achieve a goal. 

Good Job

  1. Hi!
    I actually read this article, and I thought it would be really beneficial for soon-to-be mothers and fathers. It stresses the importance of words and how you speak to your children. If parents are consistently critical and judgmental of their children, it is really difficult for the children to gain confidence. Words matter!

Week 11 Story: Dude's Bowling Ball

Dude "Well, that's just your opinion, man," replied Dude to Jesus.  Jesus was Dude's arch-nemesis. Jesus never believed in Dude's crazy outlandish ideas. Dude was an open-minded individual, who believed that anything was possible, and Jesus could not stretch his imagination that far. Jesus said, "There is no way that your bowling ball can fall through the sky and into that lava mountain or whatever you call it." Dude retorted, "It's a volcano, bro, and I can make it."

Dude was different and he believed in magic and bowling. He thought that his bowling ball had magic powers. Walter, his friend, always had Dude's back and let's just say he was the muscle of the two knuckleheads. Walter had a little bit of a temper, so when ...

Reading Notes Part B: Faerie Queen

I had a difficult time choosing a story this week for a different reason than normal. There were too many stories that I remember as a child that I wanted to use. I missed Part A and will be writing about it in the extra credit reading for this week. I wrote about Beowulf a small amount for my project last semester before I had to withdraw, so I wanted to take a different route this semester. I chose the Faerie Queen: Britomart unit because it has so many different angles that I could use for my Lebowski-esque stories. I like the idea of Dude having a magic aspect to his personality and attributes. He is a very optimistic character in the movie and I want to bring that over in the story I write this week. I could do so many things with a magic mirror especially if I used events from the movie. I am excited. I read Faerie Queen- Britomart Unit. Stories from the Faerie Queene by Mary Macleod. You can read the story here. Faerie Queen
