Principle Definition
Offer feedback to help learners evaluate their progress and performance, identify knowledge gaps, flag misconceptions, and correct mistakes. Feedback can also provide guidance or suggestions for reflecting on process and improving future performance. Feedback messages can be text-based, conveyed through tone, or come from teachers, peers, or be self-generated. Effective feedback must also consider the learner’s ability, instructional context, timing, and other structural factors.
Limitations
Feedback, while powerful, is a double-edged sword that can sometimes negatively impact learning outcomes. Feedback perceived as overly critical or controlling may demotivate learners and hinder their performance. Similarly, feedback that lacks specificity or is coupled with grades or normative comparisons tends to impede learning. Conversely, overly lengthy or complex feedback risks overwhelming learners, diluting the intended message, and reducing its effectiveness.
