Opis

"All Behavior Is Communication: How To Give Feedback, Criticism, And Corrections That Improve Behavior" is an education and teaching book by Carmen Y. Reyes, The Psycho-Educational Teacher. The topic of this innovative guide is simple yet powerful: what teachers say to children (the words we use) influences the way students behave. Feedback and criticism that convey high and positive expectations influence positive performance, but feedback and criticism that are a constant reminder to children of inadequate performance and/or recurrent behavior problems reinforce the same low performance and behavior difficulties that we want to extinguish in the first place. Teachers can make a huge difference in the way students perform; that is how influential our words and messages to children are. Therefore, if we want to change children's disruptive and/or apathetic classroom behavior, a good way to start would be to monitor, and if necessary change, the messages sent to them. "All Behavior Is Communication: How To Give Feedback, Criticism, And Corrections That Improve Behavior" explains these three speech acts in detail and presents ways in which teachers can use supportive and constructive language to inspire children to be the best they can be. Although intended for teachers and school personnel as primary audience, parents interested in using a language-based and interactional approach to discipline, popularly known as child guidance, will find plenty of insight and techniques here.
