Feedback Strategies

-

Part A

One of the areas I found most useful from reading past student's feedback was the "Asking Useful questions" tab. I feel like this helps me the most in feedback, but it's also what I tend to do best when giving feedback.  In order to grow we have to think and provide information on our own. If we're constantly giving suggestions without allowing the learner to learn, then no one will ever get better in the long run.

Part B

I read "Try Feedforward Instead of Feedback" and also "Be a Mirror: Give Readers Feedback that Fosters a Growth Mindset". In both articles, the central idea was always growth. Why give feedback if we're not giving feedback to allow our peers to grow? As this is a rhetorical question, the answer is obviously there would be no point! It would be wasting everybody's time. In order to grow, we need to have a second set of eyes on our work. Get opinions and feedforward criticism, rather than feedback criticism.

In the fall of 2019 I signed a lease to a rental house for the 2020-2021 school year. The lease began in the summer (June 1st to be exact), so that fall I decided to enroll in a course for that upcoming summer. I was already going to be living in Norman because of my lease, so I thought why not? While the dampers of 2020 were not known at the time, I could surely not "un-sign" my lease, and the class I enrolled in was an extremely important one for my major, so I followed through with my plan. Last summer I moved into the home I'm living in now and attended my first lecture of biochemistry. Going into the class I had no idea what to expect! What topics does biochemistry even cover? I knew it was very important that I not only earned my A, but that I truly retained the information taught to me. Along with my major I'm pre-med, which essentially means I'm going to have to take the MCAT at some point in order to be accepted into medical school. Having a good foundati

Week 3 Story: Super Mario Bros

Marion after he wins the battle to take Princess Peach back.  Pixy.org Note: I wanted to do a little run-off of the Ramayana but with different characters. In one of my previous blog posts I talked about how much the Ramayana reminded me of the basic Super Mario Bros. story. It's really simply because of how Peach and Sita both get captured and the other husband/fiancé had to come in to save his loved one. I hope you enjoyed!
