Review
“With Feedback, Pollock helps teachers, administrators, and coaches by prescribing strategies for creating a culture of feedback. The wonderful instructional tools and clear explanations in this book create a blueprint for developing independent thinkers, engaged students, and high achievers in every classroom."
-- Jason Wenschlag, Principal Published On: 2011-05-24“This book demonstrates the essential connection between establishing clear learning goals and feedback. The author uses accessible language and real-life examples to allow educators to visualize the application of the strategies in the classroom.” -- Michael Pakakis, Director, Victorian Space Science Education Centre Published On: 2011-06-03
“Feedback transforms the roles of both the classroom teacher and principal. The teacher becomes a learning coach by providing ongoing feedback to students. This affirms students or allows them to redirect their learning.”
-- Chris Joch, Director of Curriculum, Instruction & Assessment Published On: 2011-06-06“Feedback provides strategies that teachers can implement to improve student achievement and optimize student engagement. The author offers real-life teacher strategies that can be adapted into any classroom and will motivate students to become involved in learning instead of just being bystanders.” -- Linda Law, Director of Curriculum and Instruction K-12 Published On: 2011-06-06
“Captivating and sensible, Feedback offers realistic information about how to motivate the unmotivated learner in your classroom and improve student achievement!"
-- Dana L. Ziegler, Primary Teacher Published On: 2011-06-07“Jane Pollock shows us that feedback is not the destination on our educational journey, but it is the vehicle that moves students toward clear learning goals and drives instructional planning for teachers.” -- Bill Hayes, Principal Published On: 2011-06-07
"Jane Pollock helps us understand how engagement in learning changes when feedback becomes a collaboration betwen student and teacher. The practical implementation of a variety of strategies is conveyed through the use of a ′teacher voice′, making it seem accessible and doable for all teachers." -- Diane Quirk, Instructional Technology Specialist Published On: 2011-06-09
"Jane Pollock illustrates the importance of empowering our students to manage their own learning through the use of instructive feedback." -- Michael Adams, Director Published On: 2011-06-14
"The strategies and ideas laid out by Jane Pollock help to move teaching and learning beyond the kind of test-prep dominated models of instruction found in too many schools, and toward approaches that will cause learners to understand and retain more information, and then to do better on tests, as well!" -- David T Conley, Professor Published On: 2011-06-22
"Chapters offer analysis of a no-cost technique that only involves a little adjustment in teaching strategy, offering an approach that works like an app and produces results. Classroom examples and success stories offer applied examples of feedback at work." -- Midwest Book Review, April 2012 Published On: 2012-05-04
