Effective Feedback
Strategies

Effective feedback practices are consistently demonstrated to be one of, if not the most, powerful influences on student achievement. This metric underscores feedback’s role in helping students make visible progress by clarifying learning goals, highlighting specific areas for improvement, and reinforcing successful strategies. Studies show that when feedback is delivered with empathy and tailored to individual learning needs, it can increase both engagement and achievement.
