Making a Positive Impact

How do we as instructors tell the difference between encouraging a student or enabling them?

Encouraging is allowing students to make mistakes and helping them to find ways to not make them again. Enabling is somehow rewarding the mistakes by not holding students accountable.

How do you feel about this distinction?

I tell my students No Excuses Baby! they must do the work!
