Description

Create feedback processes that move student learning forward

Feedback is one of the most widely used tools in education and also one of the most misunderstood. Despite teachers' best efforts, common beliefs about feedback often lead to wasted time, student confusion, and little real progress in learning. In Classroom Feedback, the authors examine nine persistent myths about feedback—from the idea that more is always better to the assumption that grades and feedback should go hand in hand—and replace them with clear, research-based strategies that reflect how feedback can become part of an ongoing process of learning and improvement. This engaging resource includes:

  • Nine feedback myths, each explored through classroom vignettes, key studies, and teacher perspectives gathered across six countries
  • Concrete implications for practice that help educators adapt feedback to the learner, task, and context
  • Structured reflection activities designed to build evidence-informed feedback processes over time

Educators will learn to identify which feedback practices truly support student growth and which are quietly working against it, helping create classroom conditions in which students can interpret, use, and act on feedback information in ways that move their learning forward.
