To give feedback that strengthens learners» motivation and persistence, teachers should
keep five principles in mind: A learning context in which students are truly
engaged makes feedback more palatable; fostering peer feedback is important; good feedback focuses on the processes a learner used; praise isn't the best way to give a positive message; and feedback focused on judging the learner (even
positively) can backfire.
Being a creative and cheery person, I find it very easy to make up spontaneous stories and devise on the spot fun and learning activities to
keep children
engaged and channel their energies
positively.
