Using feedback to adapt instruction for individuals. This article describes the different types of feedback. Feedback is an essential component of the instructional process. Its most common mode of delivery is through teacher-student interaction in a classroom setting.
Feedback is also an important aspect of computer based instructional programs.
This article describes various types of feedback available to a learner using computer-based instruction. AUC has the advantage of engaging learners in active processing following an error, and of ensuring that the last response the learner makes is the correct one. AUC feedback also has the disadvantage of frustrating a learner who does not know the correct answer but must continue to respond until they get it right, which theoretically may never happen. Verification is the information as to whether the answer is correct or incorrect. Verification is provided by KOR, KCR, and AUC feedback.
