A guide to gracious criticism
We have all done this at some stage. Written a comment or two in haste, emailed these or posted them to a blog and realise afterwards that they were too:
- blunt
- rude
- inappropriate
- personal
There is a good article on the BBC (its old but appropriate) on this - email in haste, repent at leisure.
But techlearning has just posted a link to a good resource - “a guide to gracious criticism”
This is a clean straight forward and useful guide. Well worth a read for all Managers, Principals, directors, teachers, parents, students… well really a good read for anybody
The guide is hosted by The University writing Center @ George Mason University. This is worth a visit as it also has resources for ESOL etc
