Of the students who do thank the staff members, there are two roles that can be identified. These two social…
This was new to her because she usually only received positive feedbacks. It was also helpful because she wanted to know what she did wrong, so she would not continue making the same mistake. She said that she is naturally stubborn, so the more negative feedback she receives, the harder she works to make it better. Petersen states, “When children sense insecurity in praise, it is disregarded and turned into negative motivation” (195). If there is something that needs to be corrected, it should be mentioned instead of overlooking the issue.…
Praising can be described as encouragement, acknowledgment and supports toward a well perform the activities. Is it a good thing to do or worse? Dweck said, “Praising children’s intelligence harms their motivation and it harms their performance.” In which fixed mindset parents harm their children unintendedly. A real example, Seth Abrams wrote to Dweck: as a child, I was a member of The Gifted Child Society and continually praised for my intelligence.…
Successful Growth Mindset In an article written by Carol Dweck, she states her beliefs on how praising people for their work is a huge key to success, she ignores other key factors that might actually hinder you from a successful growth mindset. And in an article written by Alfie Kohn and she states how there are other factors such as your home life, relationships, and you and your families’ health. See Dweck talks about how all you need is praising to succeed, sometimes people have so much going on outside of the classroom; they simply can carless about being praised. Kohn stresses that it’s not praising but a better curriculum she states, “An awful lot of schooling still consists of making kids cram forgettable facts into short-term memory.”…
The mind of a criminal Understanding the reason for why people commit crime is one problem in our society we have never found a answer to. In the short story Gold Mounted-Guns by F.R Buckley he uses his view on how a criminal perceives a situation differently than in the other short story A Teacher’s Reward by Robert Phillips. Both however use the perception of the criminal to paint a picture in our minds of how perception can from another persons viewpoint will change our opinion on a subject. SECTION HEADER In the short story Gold Mounted-Guns by F.R Buckley, we see how one's morals can change how they are perceiving a situation.…
Quotation In her article, Carol S. Dweck makes the point that “Praising students’ intelligence gives them a short burst of pride, followed by a long string of negative consequences.” (9). I have experienced a similar feeling of satisfaction only to face more difficult tasks in the future. This is something for teachers or even parents to take into consideration on what should be praised about their students to help them become better learners. Paraphrase of “The Effects of Praise” (paragraph 2,3,4) Carol S. Dweck proves that praising intelligence does not increase motivation to learn.…
Scenario 2 triggers a positive social interaction within the classroom because it allows a child’s social skills to flourish thru the communication that’s provided and made available by the professor. This strategy equips student’s with a sense of assertiveness that encourages them to partake in the development of their own education. This form of discipline is not so structured and stimulates a child’s learning ability. Furthermore, this approach makes the student partially accountable for their own learning development which helps them expand leadership and social skills to become successful and empowered.…
The Psalter is a book of Holy Scripture that has been both captivating and profitable in my personal journey of faith. Unfortunately they never became much more than a guide for Godly living, comforting words for those in torment or grief as well as songs and poetry that were slightly more anointed than modern hymns and contemporary worship songs. This study of the Psalms has been beneficial as it re-enforced and greatly deepened my understanding of discipleship in the Psalms. It also gave me new appreciation for the beautiful literary style, the Christocentric nature in which they were written as well as the role they played in cultic and liturgical functions and in personal piety. The most beneficial shift in my interpreting and reading…
How to ruin a child In the article it’s told that “the theory that praise, self-esteem and accomplishment increase in tandem is false” (George F. Will). Which is why some children soccer teams stopped counting goals and shower trophies on everyone, or that they even in physical education classes’ students are jump roping without rope. He says children are jumping rope without ropes because of self-esteem obsession and the list goes on, such as opening lunchboxes to find handwritten notes telling how amazing they are can lead to encountering academic difficulties.…
Everyone makes mistakes, even great leaders, but it is important to recognize these mistakes and learn from them. One of the most important mistakes a leader can make is making poor communication. Employees must understand what their job is and how it should be taken care of. A simple misunderstanding can change the entire outcome of what was to be expected. Other communication issues also revolve around not providing enough information.…
Parents affect their children 's self-esteem. A parent 's self-esteem is reflected in his or her parenting style. Research shows that children with high self-esteem tend to have parents who show their children lots of love and acceptance. Children with low self-esteem tend to have parents who are judgmental and critical.…
The benefits and detriments to praising a child Praising a child, especially young infants and toddlers, is common in child rearing and is a seemingly automatic response to a successful behavior (Brummeiman, Thomaes, Castro, 2014). According to Brummeiman, inflated praise is often given to a child in an attempt to boost their self-esteem. Two studies, a naturalistic, observational study and a controlled experiment looked at the drives behind an adult’s provision of praise (Brummeiman et al., 2014). This study indicated that adults are more inclined to provide this augmented praise if a child has low self-esteem.…
This analysis focuses on assessment information provided by an elementary class comprised of 20 students. The results for one particular student named Bobby will also be highlighted in order to analyze and discuss his present developmental word study stage and procedures to support his and his peers spelling acquisition. The words spelled correctly, feature points, and the total feature score will be explained along with the rationalization for grouping the students recorded in this classroom composite inventory. Also, a description of the features that each group will begin working on and the activities that will be used to reinforce each student’s orthographic knowledge will be addressed.…
I can empathize with teachers who say that the observation and evaluation process does not seem reciprocal in nature. Most of my follow-up evaluations have either been waived or conducted in five minutes or less in which the principal hits upon the highlights of my observation. Very few teaching lessons have been learned through these interactions. In her article though, Shelly Arneson includes sound practices that can be implemented to alleviate many of the concerns of the evaluation process. Her basic premise is to shift the dialogue from inspection-based conversation to a reflection-based conversation.…
Reflection on Book Title “The Leader, The Teacher & You” I share the same sentiment with the author that “Walk the ground!” is essential for a leader to earn respect from the ground. Walking the ground also requires social competency skills such as being able to “communicate to influence” and having “interpersonal effectiveness”. In future, I will apply this principle of “Walk the ground!” by constantly engaging my superiors, peers and subordinates for their guidance and opinions through cohesion and feedback sessions on how various tasks can be done more effectively and efficiently. Through these sessions, I will seek to understand their concerns and challenges in their area of work.…
