PLEASE READ BEFORE SUBMITTING

This form provides email contact to Patrick Jennings, the author, photographer and webmaster of this site. It's intended for private communication of personal or professional matters but feel free to just say Hi there!

Contact information for Noam Chomsky, Bell Hooks, Naomi Wolf or any other VIP mentioned on this site can be found on the Critical Thinkers pages. I won't respond to queries for this information. And I can't pass messages along to these folks for you either.

Messaging forums are also available for a variety of communications. A list of forum categories appears on the right. I monitor these, respond when I have something to offer, and let others respond when I don't. Forums are superior to email for getting general queries answered on a variety of topics.

No matter the method you choose, I look forward to hearing from you

Thanks,

Patrick.

Of course children benefit from positive feedback. But praise and rewards are not the only methods of reinforcement. More emphasis should be placed on appreciation—reinforcement related explicitly and directly to the content of the child’s interest and efforts.
