Good morning! I hope you all are having a great day.
Today I have read two articles about giving feedback. Here's what I found out!
The first article is called "The Difference Between Praise and Feedback". The reason I chose this article is because the title stood out to me. Reading this article I found a few things about feedback that I didn't know. I learned that saying "Good Job" or phrases along this line are not great ways to give feedback to your child. The better way to do it is by "process praise". Also asking questions and listening to what they have to say make a huge difference in their progress. Doing those things will increase the chance of your child to take on risks and challenges. This is a very interesting article and I suggest you guy's read it.
The second article is called "How to Give Bad Feedback Without Being a Jerk". The reason I chose this article is a mixture between the title and the image used under the title. The title is very unformed which caught my attention and the image is of one of my favourite shows!
This article focuses on how to give effective feedback without making them "feel attacked". Grant stated that using the "compliment sandwich" technique isn't the most efficient way of giving feedback. The compliment sandwich is basically starting and ending off with a positive comment and saying the negative points in between. This technique is used to easy out the negative comments on others. What Grant talks about is starting your feedback session with sentences such as "I'm giving you these comments because I have very high expectations and I know you can reach them.". This increases their interest and eases out the negative comments in an efficient way. Grant give real life situations using those techniques that helped companies.
Overall those articles were helpful in understanding ways to give more efficient feedback. I hope you guys learned a thing or two from my reading!
Thank you for listening and, as always I will see you soon,
Denis.
