General Guidelines for Providing Constructive Feedback It is descriptive rather than evaluative Describe what you observed…stay clear of personal judgments Vague, focused on the person, and based on opinions or feelings Should never be given in anger or be judgmental It is specific rather than general Better testing.…vs The tests did not seem to be representative of the material covered. It focuses on the facts and/or behaviors rather than on the person Clearly not a detailed-oriented person!…vs Syllabus needs to be proofread. It requires an awareness of the needs of both the receiver and the giver of feedback That presentation you just gave was useless and a waste of my time…vs I would have liked to have heard about…in your presentation It is directed toward an issue or behavior which the receiver can do something about Voice is too soft and doesnt carry vs. Using a microphone might be beneficial. It is well thought out before being offered…
