The sweet spot of productivity, capability; science of psychology researched
It is possible there is a sweet spot; an actual number or protocol to be found between the sweet spot between compentence and productivity and self esteem<->praise; finding this especially for children, and children's educational software finds the sweet spot where children learn the most at some particular self esteem for some personality type/big 5 cluster | |
It is possible there is a sweet spot of self esteem and actual capability; an actual number or curriculum protocol to be found between the sweet spot between competence and productivity and self esteem<->praise:
Finding this especially for children, and children's educational software finds the sweet
spot where children learn the most at some particular non perfectionism, non "gifted child" syndrome self esteem for individual particular personality type/big 5 cluster. The big 5 is a well researched and validated psychology metric(test).
If you graph a population like the US you get graphically friendly concentrated clusters of personality frequency combinations; these are rather like the Myers briggs personality test. Creating a new thing, the big 5 personality cluster test, and connecting it to the sweet spot of the right amount of praise (as well as lesson repetition) coupled to the optimal amount of achievement and competence at at particular (new thing) Big 5 personality cluster type is beneficial to the children and the adults they become, making them better and things, and thus median higher pay from education their entire lives.
The could call it the PSE metric (Personality Self Esteem) metric.

What is your unit of measure for quantifying praise? How would
such a unit account for the phenomenon of praise inflation,
whereby some people's compliments are more irritating than
encouraging because everyone knows they're insincere while,
from another person, an impassive nod is very high praise
indeed? |

From some people, "that's a piece of shite and I'm not interested you useless runt" would be worth more than all the medals and honours of the Empire |
|

I think education in general and the GATE program in
particular could learn a lot from the Marine Corps. |

Randomness is there for a reason. |
|
| |
Yes, nothing is ever a coincidence. |

You could even take this further. With the big 5 as some kind
of webby spectrum, if you could target the child's personal
spot with some sort of easy personality quiz thingy (yeah that
might be tough to pull off in practice), then you could tailor
the app to hone in on where they were. |

//rather like the Myers briggs personality test// - a
better test would be one which asked the question "Do you
believe that the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI®) (a)
reflects fundamental truths about people's personalities,
or (b) is a load of unscientific hogwash?". |

[a1] In that case you're a HAPT (Hippo's Advanced
Personality Test) Type 'B' person. That'll be £50. |

Hey [hippo] I can do the peer review thing pretty quick with guaranteed endorsement and recommendation. Competitive rates. |
|
| |
Is it OK if I pay you in my new, experimental, as-yet-unlaunched
cryptocurrency, HipCoin? |
|
| |
Sure, £50 plus 5000 hipcoins will do fine. |
|
| |
HipCoins have recently crashed in value with the result that 5000
HipCoins is now worth about -£50 |
|
| |
OK well I'll just take the £50 then. Good job you spotted before the deal was agreed! |
