Feedback Strategies
The two articles I have chosen to review are Five Reasons to Stop Saying “Good Job!”
and The difference between Praise and Feedback.
He has five major points that he stops of which follow as Manipulating
children, Creating praise junkies, Stealing a child’s pleasure Losing interest
and Reducing achievement. The two points
that drew my attention the most were creating praise junkies this hits on the
fact that kids are morphed into just going for the praise instead of working
towards a good piece of quality work. This was good, because I think that is
what is happening in the younger generation today. The second point of reducing
achievement had some interesting points talked about how often times it is seen
that kids that are awarded after a first task, often stumble on the next one.
The Next article had three main points, Process praise,
Praise and Personhood, Praise vs. Feedback. The first point talks about
praising someone on the process rather than the outcome of work, I don’t know
if I totally agree with this point. The next point talks about how parental
praise is manipulative, intrusive and undermines both children’s intrinsic
enjoyment of what they’re doing and their own internal sense of whether they
are doing good or trying hard. The final point was talking about if there was
any way to critique and instruct children without doing lasting harm on the
child.
