Hello,
I am a teacher of students with emotional disturbance and/or learning disabilities. I’m also a graduate student in special education. I’m doing research on feedback. Please respond to any or all of the following questions.
What does effective feedback look like?
How does it affect the child?
What have you found that doesn’t work?
Thanks for your time.

For my particular class frequency, consistency (or predictability) and positive nature were the key ingredients to the feedback. I kept it academic — so a kid reading aloud would try to have fewer than six mistakes in his paragraph…for each less than six and my scribe for the day would put an A next to his name.
