Feedback Strategies

After reading about your opinion on praise and reading some of the articles, I think I decided that I believe you need both praise and critique to give good feedback. I read the article How to Craft Constructive Criticism, and I think one thing this made me think of was that its important to be honest when it comes to giving feedback. But, one point they made was talking about being a mirror and really consider how it is going to come across to them. The other article I read was Presence, not Praise. I don't really think I believe that praise is wrong and hurtful in the long run, but I do think you need a balance and that you shouldn't over do it. This is definitely where the honesty comes into play. You should be able to have mature conversations with people. Praise them when you believe that they deserve it, but don't be afraid to tell them if they are doing something that you don't agree with or if you think they can do better, because it will make them better in the long run. But everyone does need to be praised once in a while. This can definitely be specific and different for each person.

Introduction

Hey everyone, my name is Stephanie Krawczyk. I'm from Tulsa, Oklahoma and I am beginning my senior and final year here at the University of Oklahoma studying Chemical Engineering. Although there are a lot of cool things about m major, I think the coolest thing about my major is that even though I have learned so much in my time here, there is so much out there to discover and continue learning! I love my family and I love that Tulsa isn't too far of a drive from them. And they can make the trip up to see me too. I have a younger brother, Adam, who just moved into his freshman year at the University of Arkansas, and I am so excited to see where his life takes him in the next couple of years. Also I have one dog who is the coolest dog in the whole world (even though all dogs are amazing). Her name is Kacy and she's 10 years old. I always make my parents send me pictures of her. Here is a picture I took of her: One of my other favorite things is food. I can't think of...

Reading Notes: Czech Folktales Part A

This week I wanted to get ahead and dive into the European Unit. The Czech Folktales immediately stood out to me because of my ancestry in Poland. The Polish and Czech have many similarities culturally, so I wanted to see what kinds of story telling techniques and story plots the Czechs told. The first story in this part of the reading was Sleepy John. I thought that the character development in this story was really cool because initially you have John who sleeps all the time. This gets him into some unusual and difficult situations, but he manages to overcome them. By the end of the story, Sleepy John has obtained the entire kingdom. As a whole, I thought it was really cool that a character that was initially thought to have some negative characteristics turned out to be an awesome and smart character. Maybe he was just tired all the time from all the crazy situations he gets himself into. The next story was Silly Jura. This trend in the title names started to attract my attentio...
