Feedback Strategies

                                 Feedback Strategies 

Hello
Welcome to my blog
Today I’m looking at how to give good feedback. I did this by reading two articles on giving good feedback.

The first article I read was “Five Reasons to Stop Saying "Good Job!" by Alfie Kohn
 http://www.amblesideschools.com/sites/default/files/Five%20Reasons%20to%20Stop%20Saying%20%20Good%20Job!.pdf  This article talks how about saying “good job” is bad and the reasons why.
1.       Manipulating children
2.       Creating praise junkies
3.       Stealing a child’s pleasure
4.       Losing interest
5.       Reducing achievement

All these reasons tell us why telling someone they did a good job to children will affect them in a negative way and it’s not good feedback

The second article I read was “The Difference Between Praise and Feedback” by mindshift  https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/34778/the-difference-between-praise-and-feedbackthis article talks about how to prise your kids the right way so they will have a growth mindset. You do this by prising a kid’s work progress and not the work itself.

These articles show that you need to give good feedback and you need to give feedback the right way.
