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.

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.

Growth Mindset, "Not Yet"

Growth Mindset The Growth Mindset.   I have never heard of the growth mindset or Carol Dweck until now. I can understand why people support her ideas and learning tools. These videos bring a whole new world to kids and some adults who have seen learning or work one way their whole life. She thinks outside of the box and beyond. I would love to take what I have learned from these videos and apply it to the subjects that I am struggling with. If we all keep working at a certain task or subject, I believe that we can all have the "not yet" perspective on life. I was diagnosed with ADD about a year and a half ago. Before transferring to OU, classes were not that difficult for me at previous colleges. When I came to OU, I realized that I do not understand more difficult concepts as fast as everyone else. My short term memory is also lacking and memorization can be tough. But when I look at subjects with a more positive view than the alternative, I tend to ...
