by Tara Arntsen227,519 views Throughout their studies, students will make lots of mistakes. It is an important part of the learning process. If they are not making mistakes then they are not being given difficult enough topics and structures to work with. You have to choose material that is challenging but manageable for your class and correct mistakes in positive ways. Singling out students who make errors will make students feel self conscious and shy so some tact when correcting mistakes is important. How To Proceed
At every stage of an activity, praise should be given. If a student volunteers to answer a question, you can thank him immediately for volunteering which will boost his self confidence. At that point if the student provides an incorrect answer you can correct in an encouraging way by saying “Almost.” If the student gives the correct answer, be sure to say “Good job!” or “Excellent work!” As long as you are positive in your method of correcting errors, reassure your students that they are doing well, and do not get upset with them for making mistakes, they will continue to volunteer and try their best because making mistakes is OK. That is how learning should be. If students never take risks, they will not improve. P.S. If you enjoyed this article, please help spread it by clicking one of those sharing buttons below.
