- The Difference Between
Praise That Promotes Narcissism vs. Healthy Self-Esteem
- Key Characteristics of
Better Learning Feedback
I think the article that I took the most away from is the
Key Characteristics of Better Learning Feedback. I felt like this article
clearly explained the ways to give great feedback. It broke it down into seven
key things that make some feedback better than others. I appreciated how he
explained in detail how each of the key points contribute to making better
feedback. Anytime I give feedback it usually comes in the form of a “good job”,
“nice try”, or even “I think this aspect could be different”. Reading this
article made me realize that my input is important, and I need to make an
effort to give valuable feedback. I think his advice on giving “actionable
information” is something that I
need to make more of an effort doing. Instead of just giving advice on what I didn’t
think worked, or what I liked, I need to give more detailed feedback to help
the person see how they can improve or what made their work good. I need to
work on not only giving feedback but receiving feedback. In high school when we
were given back essays or stories that we had written, I never looked at the
comments and feedback that the teacher wrote throughout the paper. I know that
I am not a good writer and it makes me self -conscious when people point out my
spelling or grammar mistakes. So I need to listen to the article when it says
that feedback isn’t an attack on the person, but a guide to helping them
improve.
