Why Feedback Matters
Feedback is a critical part of learning. When paired with formative assessment—frequent opportunities for students to practice and apply knowledge—feedback helps students recognize strengths, address misunderstandings, and plan for improvement. Effective feedback not only guides academic growth but also supports motivation and a sense of belonging.
Strategies for Meaningful Feedback
Effective feedback practices support student learning by:
- Encouraging self-assessment and reflection.
- Clarifying goals, criteria, and standards for assignments.
- Creating opportunities for dialogue between students, instructors, and peers.
- Providing chances for students to close the gap between current and desired performance.
- Supporting positive motivation and confidence.
