Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: • Why is it important to distinguish between personal and professional use of social media as an educator? How could you use social media to build and maintain professional relationships? • In the “How to Give and Get Constructive Feedback” video from Huberman Lab Clips, Dr. Adam Grant states that focusing on giving specific feedback on the task, not the self, is what drives effective feedback. In his example, he said: “If I tell you that your work is terrible, you’re going to get defensive. If I tell you that your work is great, you’re going to get complacent. If I tell you here’s the specific thing that I liked about your work, you’re going to try to learn to repeat that. And if I tell you here’s the thing I didn’t like, you’re going to try to see if you can fix it.” • Share an example of constructive feedback you would give to a peer teacher or one of your students that focuses on a task and not the self. Review the College’s Conceptual Framework. • How does this topic link to the College’s Conceptual Framework and the framework’s philosophical relationship to effective teacher preparation?
