The Difference Between Praise and Feedback - Growth Mindset

 


The Difference Between Praise and Feedback




https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/34778/the-difference-between-praise-and-feedback

This is an article I stumbled upon and is written by an author named Anya Kamentez. This article goes over the differences between praise and feedback. The one thing I knew before reading this article was that praise in itself was something that increases a person's ego such as 


"A man congratulating someone else on an accomplishment they had and the man telling the public how much of a great man he is" 


That is called praise. 


But feedback is something different, feedback is something you receive from someone that is trying to give you some pointers, some advice or constructive feedback in order to make themselves better or to improve. This is called feedback. And this is where the recipient of the feedback is more humble than full of ego.


The one big point I learned from reading this article is this geared toward parents because it talks about parenthood and kids. This talks about how parents should know a balance between giving feedback and praise. Because you praise them too much they become spoilt but if you give them too much feedback especially harsh feedback, then that motivates the kids to rebel.

If you want to read more then the link is at the top. It's quite an interesting read.

Game Brainstorm

  Game Brainstorm  3D Catching Game   I picked the 3D Catching game for one of my ideas because I feel like these games are simple to play, the controls and the mechanics are not complicated and anyone can play them. From my knowledge, inside of a catching game, the player needs to use its abilities to move around the map, stay focused and catch certain objects such as balls, fruits, food, animals, etc with precision. And the more objects that you catch the more difficult the game will get and the levels get increasingly harder and more fun. The objects will either fall faster or there will be such things that you are not allowed to catch such as spikes, bombs, unhealthy food etc in general just bad things can't be caught.  The things I would like to learn if I were to make a catching game is :  Learn the fundamentals of making a game. Learn the different mechanics of controlling and moving a player. Learn how to make the player catch objects. Learn how to add a...

Introduction to a Future Success

  Introduction to myself :)  This is me Nasim Slavotic :) Hello! My name is Nasim Slavotic, I am 20 years old and I am now a 2nd-year student in TUDublin Blanchardstown doing Creative Digital Media. I am from Dublin and I work part-time in my dad's butcher shop here in Blanchardstown in Coolmine near the post office.  What are my hobbies?  In my free time, I like to go to the gym. Also, I like to go out and take pictures with my camera and make videos on my Youtube channel (NaSiM101) which I took a break from for a while from the pandemic but I do love to brainstorm new ideas for videos and discover new trending things. I also love going out with my friends but now I am starting to go back out again since the pandemic had closed everything before but now everything is coming back to normal slowly but surely. When I'm bored I like to head on Photoshop and Illustrator and just make whatever comes in my mind.  https://pxhere.com/en/photo/1621191 Favourite Foods...

My First Playable

  First Playable My First Playable game so far At this point right now in the process of making my game, I have now implemented the environment, the 3d character, the HUD interface of the gold coins, the player being able to run forward across the map and move left and right avoiding the obstacles pressing the left and right keys or the A and D keys. I also implemented the trigger where when you run across the coins you are able to collect the coins and the number of coins you collect will appear on the top left of the screen. I adjusted the main camera angle to be a third-person view of the entire game so it gives a good perspective of the coins and the obstacles. I then added plants to give it a better aesthetic and look to the game. The thing I wanted to change from my original vision was that I wanted to make the game way more suited to the theme of the game itself. So instead of wooden spikes, I added logs and instead of tree trunks I added regular trees and then I also added ...
