Providing Feedback By: Stefon Bowman Lorin Carter Waynesha Davis
What is feedback Feed back is the information about reactions to a product, a person’s performance of a task, used as a basis for improvement.
Types of Feedback • Specific to General Feedback • Congruent and Incongruent Feedback • Simple Feedback • Positive, Neutral, and Negative Feedback
Specific to General Feedback • Feedback is specific when it contains information that allows children to know exactly what they need to practice or how they are moving • Feedback is general when it might refer to any of several factors, such as children’s movement, behavior, or dress. • Teachers often use general feedback to encourage children to continue to move and continue to try.
Congruent and Incongruent Feedback When feedback focuses on the cue or refinement and often demonstrated to the entire class, this is termed congruent feedback.
Simple Feedback Simple feedback is when one of the advantages of providing congruent feedback for the teacher is that the teacher focuses on lonely one component at time. This is far easier and no doubt more accurate than attempting to do a complete biomechanical analysis of all children in the class as the teacher moves around, attempting to quickly observe and review the correct use of four, six, or even eight critical components.
Positive, Neutral, and Negative Feedback • Positive feedback encourages youth and helps create a warm, pleasant atmosphere as compared to a nagging, harsh environment where youths are made to feel that they are continually doing something wrong. • Negative feedback is not used by many teachers. It is effective for teachers to vary the affective message of the feedback
Who Get’s Your Feedback? If we’re honest with ourselves, we probably tend to favor one type of child over another. Some of us prefer to teach the highly skilled, others, the less skilled. Ideally, we provide equal amounts of feedback to youngsters of all skill levels.
Conclusion Feedback is important to children. They want and need to know how they are doing. Children receive reasonable amounts of feedback from a teacher and they are not neglected. Feedback that is specific, congruent, simple, and positive or neutral is most effective with children.
