What is Constructive Feedback?
Definition: Constructive feedback is providing a positive and specific response to one’s work that highlights their strengths, identifies areas for improvement, and provides actionable suggestions to help one grow and learn.
Elements of Constructive Feedback:
- Focus on effort and progress: Acknowledge their hard work and highlight how they've progressed, not just the final result.
- Be specific: Instead of saying "good job," point out aspects of their work that were done well, like "I like how you explained the steps in your math problem clearly."
- Offer actionable suggestions: Provide concrete steps they can take to improve, like "Next time, try adding more details to your story to make it more engaging."
- Positive tone: Use encouraging language and avoid harsh criticism.
Examples of Constructive Feedback:
- Your digital story design is very creative! Your use of images and sound effects supported the message.
- I see you put a lot of thought into your digital story. Next time, you might add some sound effects to make it more interesting.
- I can tell that you did a lot of work to make this digital story interesting, and it shares a clear message.
