    Here we go! Q1: Feedback is an excellent catalyst for con't growth. How can we give feedback that students actually listen to? #21stedchat
  • mr_middle_2 Oct 1 @ 8:09 PM EDT
    A1. Feedback must be done during the process and not following "completion." Ss have "cut ties" by the time they receive grade. #21stedchat
    In reply to @benakallick
  • kobriengcs Oct 1 @ 8:09 PM EDT
    A1: It has to be a continuing conversation--if there's no op for revision, they'll never listen! + must give time to digest it #21stedchat
  • HeidiHayesJacob Oct 1 @ 8:09 PM EDT
    Feedback #21stedchat
  • fisher1000 Oct 1 @ 8:09 PM EDT
    A1. Make the feedback non-evaluative. It should be a conversation about goals and revisions. #21stedchat
  • chadw675 Oct 1 @ 8:09 PM EDT
    A1: Make it meaningful, targeted, and give Ss opportunity to respond to feedback and question for clarification #21stedchat
  • Miss_Royse Oct 1 @ 8:09 PM EDT
    A1: I think connecting their areas of growth to their areas of struggle. "you're good at this, so lets use that to improve this" #21stedchat
  • LoriStollar Oct 1 @ 8:09 PM EDT
    A1: T voice should only be one of may voices providing feedback #21stedchat

    In reply to @kobriengcs
  • Edu_Thompson - Moderator Oct 1 @ 8:10 PM EDT
    A1. When feedback is authentic and provided multiple ways students value it. #21stedchat
  • MarcosP73333589 Oct 1 @ 8:10 PM EDT
    A1. Make it relevant. Make it short and to the point. Be specific on what needs to be improved or corrected. #21stedchat
  • fisher1000 Oct 1 @ 8:10 PM EDT
    That’s awesome. Much like Dan and Chip Heath’s “Switch” mindset! #21stedchat

  • benakallick Oct 1 @ 8:11 PM EDT
    Authentic audiences offer feedback and guidance to help refine student’s idea, solution, or understanding of problem. #21stedchat
  • kobriengcs Oct 1 @ 8:11 PM EDT
    I love conferencing! I've also had good results w/ audio feedback using @KaizenaHQ, heard good things abt same in Turnitin #21stedchat
    In reply to @mr_middle_2, @KaizenaHQ
  • fisher1000 Oct 1 @ 8:11 PM EDT
    And those audiences are well beyond the classroom walls! #21stedchat

  • mr_middle_2 Oct 1 @ 8:12 PM EDT
    Great point! Hard to find all this time for T & peer feedback with each process while still covering topics... #21stedchat
    In reply to @LoriStollar
  • reidfbaker24 Oct 1 @ 8:12 PM EDT
    Honest feedback can be given to students through the watching of recorded videos the teacher made of their lessons #21stedchat
    In reply to @fisher1000
  • kobriengcs Oct 1 @ 8:12 PM EDT
    Yes! If you give them a novel's worth of feedback, they will be overwhelmed and will ignore it. #21stedchat

    Please elaborate! How do you provide in multiple ways? #21stedchat
    In reply to @Edu_Thompson
  • chadw675 Oct 1 @ 8:12 PM EDT
    Good idea. Let Ss set goals for completing projects and meet with them to assess progress together #21stedchat

      In reply to @kobriengcs
  • Edu_Thompson - Moderator Oct 1 @ 8:13 PM EDT
    A1 Feedback should be a 2 way street. Ts should be asking 4 feedback. It can actually motivate Ss bc u r providing them agency #21stedchat
  • kobriengcs Oct 1 @ 8:13 PM EDT
    Flipping can make this easier--do the hard work (feedback, revision, etc.) in class & info-gathering, reading, etc. outside #21stedchat
    In reply to @mr_middle_2, @LoriStollar
  • mr_middle_2 Oct 1 @ 8:13 PM EDT

  • ka_floyd7 Oct 1 @ 8:13 PM EDT
    A1 I believe that feedback for students should be clear, concise, and delivered in a positive way. #21stedchat #conversechat

  • mr_middle_2 Oct 1 @ 8:14 PM EDT
    I'm not a big fan of bringing this all home. Would prefer they did it in school. We have many parents who would do for Ss... #21stedchat

    A1: Feedback should be meaningful and constructive. Point out a positive aspect to their work and a need for growth. #21stedchat

    I have S lead conferences to provide feedback, Virtual feedback such as comments on Gdocs & in canvas I do voice recordings too #21stedchat
    In reply to @mr_middle_2
  • gdorn1 Oct 1 @ 8:14 PM EDT
    A1.When Ss are working on act. ask quest. to get info. from them, about goals or targets, see how we can generate ideas for imp. #21stedchat
  • kobriengcs Oct 1 @ 8:14 PM EDT
    And Ss should see how the T is changing as a result of feedback, they need to know you take it seriously #21stedchat
    In reply to @Edu_Thompson
  • fisher1000 Oct 1 @ 8:14 PM EDT
    I hear great things about @FlipGrid too…perfect for short reflections and feedback! #21stedchat
  • NiemanArt Oct 1 @ 8:15 PM EDT
    I often encourage students to tell me the areas they want me to provide them feedback in on project #21stedchat
  • MrsSchwabArt Oct 1 @ 8:15 PM EDT
    Agree! they need time to use the feedback to improve their work. Feedback should be given with time for revision #21stedchat
    In reply to @kobriengcs
  • mr_middle_2 Oct 1 @ 8:15 PM EDT
    Many different tools also great for Ss with learning disabilities. Check it out! #21stedchat

    Interesting, but I'd find this hard to connect and relate to an actual assignment. #21stedchat

    A2. Are we helping the student connect the why and the what. #21stedchat
  • mr_middle_2 Oct 1 @ 8:21 PM EDT
    A2. Are Ss hitting objectives? Effective communication of ideas? When using tech, are they using effectively? #21stedchat
  • Edu_Thompson - Moderator Oct 1 @ 8:21 PM EDT
    A2 Feedback is often mistaken 4 criticism. Constructive criticism can help to formulate better decisions to Improve performance #21stedchat
  • fisher1000 Oct 1 @ 8:21 PM EDT
    A2. I think Metacognition is critical. Ss need to be able to articulate the thinking around their decisions. #21stedchat
  • MrsSchwabArt Oct 1 @ 8:22 PM EDT
    Providing enough info without giving students answers. I ask questions like "how would your art change if you added this..." #21stedchat

    Q2: I think it's important to always start feedback about what you liked/what was good/etc #21stedchat
  • fisher1000 Oct 1 @ 8:22 PM EDT
    A2. I also think the way we ask questions or have students question each other matters. #21stedchat #Quest4Learning
  • mr_middle_2 Oct 1 @ 8:23 PM EDT
    Ha! My thinking exactly... As a SS T, my thinking is... If Ss were getting that load from all classes, it would be detrimental. #21stedchat
    In reply to @kobriengcs, @LoriStollar

    Listening w understanding&empathy. To be able read the learner in front of you. Not just about the work but student discovery. #21stedchat

    In reply to @Edu_Thompson

    We should be giving feedback to habits that are easily correctable. Ones that the students may not even know they are doing #21stedchat

    Absolutely. Both student and teacher. Feedback is a partnership really. #21stedchat

    Right? There has to be balance. My school actually has a 3 HW max a week for classes. Can't give HW every night, studying counts #21stedchat
    In reply to @mr_middle_2, @LoriStollar
  • JaradM Oct 1 @ 8:26 PM EDT
    True! Some Ss are not even aware of the common mistakes they make. Ignoring this would be a great disservice to their growth #21stedchat
    In reply to @reidfbaker24, @allison_zmuda
  • kobriengcs Oct 1 @ 8:26 PM EDT
    When my students think of feedback less like "criticism" and more like "advice" they are more receptive to it #21stedchat
    In reply to @mr_middle_2, @Edu_Thompson
  • allison_zmuda Oct 1 @ 8:26 PM EDT
    The balance part is so important Kristin. Often times we overstep and save students from learning unintentionally. #21stedchat

  • fisher1000 Oct 1 @ 8:30 PM EDT
    A3. Feedback, as a teacher, makes me feel more effective. As a student, it always made me feel more valued. #NotAboutAGrade #21stedchat
  • NiemanArt Oct 1 @ 8:30 PM EDT
    A3: feedback should make ss both confident, inspired and inquisitive #21stedchat
  • LoriStollar Oct 1 @ 8:30 PM EDT
    Feedback makes us feel if as someone cares. In the case of Ss we want them to feel valued #21stedchat
  • kobriengcs Oct 1 @ 8:31 PM EDT
    It means so much more when they can see your face/ hear your voice--far more likely to listen than if they're just reading #21stedchat
    In reply to @mr_middle_2, @LoriStollar, @KaizenaHQ
  • Edu_Thompson - Moderator Oct 1 @ 8:31 PM EDT
    A3. It gives us a feeling of belonging & purpose. It can unlock change by preventing us from being stuck and discouraged #21stedchat
  • kylelaurie Oct 1 @ 8:31 PM EDT
    A3 Its all about the climate you create! If feedback feels negative it will be rejected or ignored. If positive--embraced! #21stedchat
  • MrsSchwabArt Oct 1 @ 8:31 PM EDT
    Ss should feel they have a direction to move forward successfully #21stedchat
  • mr_middle_2 Oct 1 @ 8:31 PM EDT
    Is this the case when the student gives difficult feedback to hear? Does this mean they care? Don't mean to sound difficult! #21stedchat
    In reply to @LoriStollar
  • allison_zmuda Oct 1 @ 8:32 PM EDT
    Yep. Feedback can be uncomfortable. We need to have compassion for our Ss because we know how difficult it can be on ourselves. #21stedchat

  • seanrussell311 Oct 1 @ 8:32 PM EDT
    A3. Giving feedback informs me, getting feedback improves me. #21stedchat

    A3 how feedback makes Ss or Ts feel depends on if it is reflective in nature or a directive to be followed. #21stedchat
