What is the "Specific Praise" instructional strategy?
With "Specific Praise", the teacher delivers specific feedback regarding observed student success, informing the student exactly what was done correctly and praising success. Specific praise should be faded as student success maintains. This helps the student to discriminate correct versus incorrect responses and understand how to continue with success.
