Feedback A Comprehensive Review by Joe’l Lewis & Pat Lombard
What is Feedback? • Feedback is a channel used to communicate problems, retention, positive and negative comments to improve instruction from the designer’s and learner’s approach.
Why is Feedback Important? • Necessary to identify the performance or learning gap • Identification of problems • When contributed can add to the quality of instruction • Increases self-regulated learning
Contributors to Feedback • E. L. Thordike - The Law of Effect • Sidney Pressey – Teaching Machines • B. F. Skinner – Programmed Instruction
Instructional Design Implications • Incorporate the appropriate type of feedback into the instruction • Receive feedback from subject matter experts, instructional designers, and users • Elicit feedback that correlates with the content provided in the instruction
Elements of the Dick and Carey Model &Source of Feedback • Instructional Goals/ Instructional Materials– Stakeholders • Instructional Analysis-Subject Matter Expert • Entry behaviors – Users (surveys)
Elements of the Dick and Carey Model &Source of Feedback • Performance objectives / Tests – Instructional Designers • Formative Evaluation – Learners • Summative Evaluation – Learners
Specific Ways the Dick & Carey Model is Incorporated: • Feedback is a major component in the Dick & Carey Model. It is an extremely important part of the educational experience when the medium of instruction does not consist of real-time face-to-face human interaction. By receiving and acting on feedback from formative and summative evaluation (feedback) a system can fill the gap between what is taught and what is learned. Feedback helps the designer and learner to identify problems in the learner arena. Feedback helps to examine the success of the learner in achieving the goals and objectives. • Feedback allows for timely intervention when problems occur, and it can also help with the formative evaluation of a product.

Approximately 90% our our daily activities include incorporating, eliciting, or evaluating feedback. Since this area is so important to the quality of instruction, we should be very familiar with the various approaches and types of feedback in educational settings.
