7 Things to remember about Feedback
1 Feedback is not advice, praise, or evaluation. Feedback is information about how we are doing in our efforts to reach a goal.
2 If students know the classroom is a safe place to make mistakes, they are more likely to use feedback for learning.
3
The feedback students give teachers can be more powerful than the feedback teachers give students.
4 When we give a grade as part of our feedback, students routinely read only as far as the grade.
5 Effective feedback occurs during the learning, while there is still time to act on it.
6 Most of the feedback that students receive about their classroom work is from other students and much of that feedback
is wrong.
7 Students need to know their earning target= the specific skill they're supposed to learn- or else "feedback" is just someone telling them what to do.

Things to remember about feedback! Feedback shouldn't just be a mark. It should tell students where they are in their learning and how to move forward 😀
