Abstract

Ways of working details the development of workshops for primary age children focusing on the giving and receiving of feedback during selected tasks. This is the first stage in work on peer coaching skills with this age group. The paper discusses the rationale for the chosen tasks and the changes made to the workshops through the experiences with different groups of children. The paper ends with reflections on the process by the researchers from different backgrounds and suggests ways of moving forward with this area.
