If a student says, “Your conclusion is weak,” as feedback but does not explain why it is weak or how it can be improved, why is the feedback incomplete?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It lacks a reason and a suggestion for improvement
Useful feedback should be specific enough to guide revision. Saying that a conclusion is weak gives a judgement, but without a reason the learner cannot identify the problem, and without a suggestion the learner does not know what action to take. Constructive feedback could point to a missing summary or unsupported claim and recommend a precise improvement.
