Reflection & Feedback

Academic skills are extremely important for student’s success in school. However, there are other skills that help in their success. Student’s also need critical thinking skills, creativity, and self-motivation. A good way to help with this is allowing students to reflect on what they learned each day. Reflecting allows a student to piece together what they have learned to real-world problems they might face. Another way to help students with these skills is feedback on their work. When the feedback is thought-provoking it can open up their minds to new ideas. This could really be beneficial for students.
