An essential concept of this chapter is providing feedback on a report card. Merely receiving a grade without an explanation does not foster development, but instead shuts the student off from the teacher and from the student’s own learning. Instead, this should become a way of communicating between teacher and student. In areas where the teacher realizes the student struggled, note should be taken as well as potential ideas of improvement. Likewise, if a student was successful in an area, they should hear what they have done successfully and be encouraged to continue this practice. Of course, reflection and grading will occur constantly throughout the course of the class, yet this further shows that feedback is essential.
