This video is relevant for both learning partners – teachers and students, but also for policy makers, teachers trainers and mentors. Feedback is an important part of the learning process, in order to make students responsible for their own professional and personal development.

There are assorted types of feedback, different techniques of delivering such feedback, and all of the structural elements which are important for teacher training curricula, too.
