Areas of the brain are more active in subjects who are learning tasks and receiving feedback than in those subjects not receiving feedback. It is encouraging, motivating and fills the strong emotional need to be valued.David Sousa, Educational Neuroscientist “Brain-Friendly Learning for Teachers” (2009)
Feedback is essential for individual, community and organizational effectiveness and learning.David Perkins, Author, Project Zero, Harvard University “King Author’s Round Table: How Collaborative Conversations Create Smart Organizations” (2003)
