Feedback is vital in just about all learning contexts

Feedback is one of the most powerful influences on learning and achievement.

Having methodical learners’ feedback provides us with evidence of teaching effectiveness and helps us to determine where improvements might be made. Simultaneously, teachers’ feedback to students enhances students learning in all the aspects like what are they doing well and what are the areas they need to improve.

As a teacher of little learners of Year 1, I collect feedback in various ways from my students during the lessons as well as meeting with the parents also gives me an indirect learners feedback.

Ways to acquire learners’ feedback:

• Smileys 
• Discussion 
• Thumbs up / Thumbs down 
• Mid plenaries 
• Written Feedback

Feedback is also a self-motivation tool for students and gives a clear picture of students understanding to teachers. It is essential to incorporate methodical feedback to enhance learning environment in the classroom.
