For this post I read “Be a Mirror: Guve Readers Feedback That Fosters a Growth Mindset” and “A simple 5-Second Habit to Rewire Your Harshly Self-Critical Brain”.
The first article was ok, I feel it explained it’s premise not simply enough and it had me confused on what it was trying to say. What I understood from it is to give feedback based on what the students thought process was instead of their work. The author emphasizes this idea, saying that you want to look at the person behind the work rather than the work itself. Hop into their mind to understand why they did it that way...
The second article I read was from last week. The article focused on this idea of looking forward instead of into the past. So when you are stressed or make a mistake, instead of reminiscing, treat that experience as one to learn from and have it spring you into a better future, with small steps to change your path away from that failure reoccurring.
I think knowing how to give and recieve feedback is important as it allows everyone to understand each other better, not only through improving the work, but by improving the enviroment of comments in general, making them more important for improvement.
