    Study Notes

    Characteristics of Constructive Feedback

    • Feedback should be individualized and relevant to the student's learning style and needs.
    • It should be goal-directed, providing assistance and increased understanding of what is expected or required.
    • Feedback should be well-timed and expected, given as soon as possible during or after the action or behavior.
    • It should be behavior-focused, rather than personality-focused.
    • Feedback should be positive and encouraging, balancing comment on strengths and weaknesses.

    Disadvantages of Written and Oral Feedback

    • Handwritten feedback can be hard to read and threatening when critical.
    • Written feedback can be slow and time-consuming to write individually.
    • Students may not act on oral feedback or take it seriously.
    • Students may feel exposed by public feedback and may not have time to reflect on it.
    • Instant responses from the teacher may not always be well-considered.

    Types of Feedback

    • Feedback can serve multiple purposes and take various forms.
    • Feedback can be provided as a single entity or a combination of multiple entities.
    • Informal feedback occurs spontaneously in the moment or during action, requiring rapport with students.
    • Formal feedback is planned and systematically scheduled, usually associated with assessment tasks.

    Importance of Feedback

    • Feedback should be positive and developmental, giving students time to reflect and respond.
    • Teachers should take responsibility for the feedback they offer, leaving the recipient with a choice.
    • Feedback should not demand change or be imposed heavily on the student.
