According to Albert
Bandura (1977), there are also some useful techniques that help our students to
be more self-efficacious, like
- Setting an
expectation which should be likely to overcome in a certain time.
- Help them
identify when they return to old negative behaviors.
- Keep in mind that
those are slips or lapses rather than a giving up and do nothing more to
overcome the difficulty.
- Encourage good
behavior and self-seem.
- Help them realize
feeling guilty or ashamed when committing mistakes is not helpful but
taking actions.
- Moving forward by
revising what you have learned.
- Write a plan to follow and stick to it.
- Applying strategies scaffolding activities and giving positive feedback.
We need to help our students to be more self efficaciuos; feel more confident to take risks, responsibilities, and lead activities and projects; if we do so, there will be a change in the future of our society, for sure. We can change the world.
