Praise, Motivation and the Child by Gill Robins

This text challenges traditional, embedded thinking about the role of praise. It questions the assumptions we make about developing self-esteem, about the ability of children to form their own independent judgements and the choices that children make regardless, rather than because of, contingent praise.

Gill Robins is the former Deputy Head of a Hampshire school. She received the John Downing Award in 2010. Until 2011 she chaired the English Association Editorial Board for the English 4-11 journal.
