After much experience and experimentation, I definitely believe that one cannot teach by criticizing and pointing out faults. One can only teach by encouraging, inspiring, and showing what to improve. Positivity is not sugar-coating, it is fundamental to the way we learn.
It is, of course, more difficult to convey the way forward, without passing judgment on the past, than it is to pass judgement on the past without conveying the way forward. But the returns are such that it is worth the intellectual and emotional investment
Why not both?
No, not both.
But you'd surely have to point out the faults when you see them?
Of course in a well intentioned and polite way.

Loss function? Opportunity function!
"Showing what to improve" is a euphemism for critical feedback. The notion that education should not involve critical feedback, or constructive criticism - which is also a form of positivity - seems counter to education.
But that is exactly what most educational institutions are built on (criticizing and pointing out faults). We are definitely missing professors who can inspire and encourage students. I strive for this every day!
But of course, you also need constructive criticism to promote growth. Makes no sense to be learning and you are not growing!
