Introduction
evident the distinction between 'internal feedback' that refers to the 'self-regulatory'
actions and 'external' feedback that refers to teachers, peers etc. Under those
assumption she came up to conclude seven principles of good feedback practice
that can be seen also as strong motivators:
1. helps clarify what good performance is (goals, criteria, expected standards);
2. facilitates the development of self-assessment (reflection) in learning;
3. delivers high quality information to students about their learning;
4. encourages teacher and peer dialogue around learning;
5. encourages positive motivational beliefs and self-esteem;
6. provides opportunities to close the gap between current and desired
performance;
7. provides information to teachers that can be used to help shape the
teaching.(Nichol and Macfarlane-Dick, 2006)
There is further area of development in the field since mos of the concepts are new
to the e-learning paradigm. Specifically the use of new technological inputs and
new methods of delivery should recognize more highways of feedback
contributions in even a fuzzy manner.
