The video about Austin's Butterfly made us wonder about each student's potential when given feedback. What can a kid actually do if we don't accept his first try?
Consider using these questions to reflect on how you might use feedback in your classroom:
- How do we know, and when do we decide, what is a student's best work?
- What role does feedback play in offering students the opportunity to achieve mastery?
- How can we use feedback to push students beyond their perceived ability level?
- What role do peers offer in providing quality feedback?
- Are we born talented or do we develop our talents?
