Feedback Techniques
- Base feedback on criteria for success.
- Address what was done correctly and elaborate on how to improve.
- Give immediate feedback.
- Allow students to revise their thinking or work.
Criteria for Success
Explicit communication of how to meet learning targets.
Students need to see what good work looks like. Share one or two exemplars of the completed task so students can see what is expected.
Also use a criteria list or rubric as a resource for students to make sure they meet the criteria to do the task successfully.

If you say "great/excellent" follow it up with "because."
Look at this example of giving specific feedback on what criteria was done well for writing a conclusion in science.

Allow for revisions
To meet the criteria
When students show their learning in a digital work environment they are more able to make revisions and edits to improve their thinking/understanding.

Use these feedback techniques in Google Drive
Use this student's conclusion about pendulums to practice giving feedback using comments in Google Drive.
Since this document is "view only" you will open the document to "make a copy" under FILE.
Use the copy to practice giving feedback. Remember to refer to the criteria when giving feedback back on what was done well and how to improve on certain criteria. By using Google Drive the feedback is done in real time and is immediate.
