Descriptive and Non-Descriptive Feedback
              Descriptive feedback is a detailed analysis in written or oral that helps the learner understand strong and weak
              points. Descriptive feedback is a very powerful tool for students in achieving successful learning. It helps a student
              find out strong points in academic and non-academic areas, areas where they need to improve and steps to follow
              to improve their weak points. For example:
                 • A Science Teacher giving a descriptive feedback to the students by explaining the mistakes done by a student in
                his paper with detailed analysis and suggestions for each mistakes, “Question 3 and 4 are not written properly. You
                need to make a diagram along with the answer and elaborate on the points more related to the functions each
                part performs.”
                 • An Employer giving a detailed analysis of the project report submitted by its subordinate, “The report needs
                more focus on the marketing areas, data analysis  charts with areas highlighted in terms  of maximum  and
                minimum sales made by you. Also, specify the scope of improvements and inputs required by the management”.
              Non-Descriptive feedback is written or oral communication that provides meaningful information but does not
              contain detailed analysis and description of the feedback. For example:
                 • A Teacher explaining the number of mistakes done by a student in his paper but not giving any suggestion and
                detailed analysis of the mistakes, “Questions 3 and 4 are not written properly. Please write more.”
                 • An  Employer giving a verbal  feedback  of  the  project  report  submitted  to his  subordinates  but  no  detailed
                description. “The report needs more focus on the marketing areas and data analysis charts.”

              Specific and Non-Specific Feedback
              Specific feedback focuses on the specific points of utmost importance and should be conveyed to the sender.
              Following are the specific feedback given by a teacher to her students:
                 • “The article you submitted for the school magazine is very well written and I like the way you portrayed the
                image of a girl child facing social injustice.”
                 • “You have not done well this time in questions related to Profit and Loss in maths.”

              Non-specific feedback is a general feedback that does not focus on any specific point. For example:
                 • “The article you submitted for the school magazine is good.”
                 • “You have not done well this time in exam.”

              Positive and Negative Feedback
              Positive feedback focuses on the sender's strengths, achievements or successes. It also takes care of the areas of
              improvement and creates a positive attitude for the sender. For example:
                 • “Nice work done by you.”
                 • “You were really good on stage but if you work more on your voice modulation, then you can do wonders.”

              Negative feedback it highlights the weaknesses and problems of the information that the sender has conveyed to
              the receiver. It should be genuine or true to bring a positive change in the process of communication. For example:

                 • “You did not submit your assignment.”
                 • “You wrote your answers very badly.”



                       Effective Communication

              Effective communication is a two-way process of exchanging ideas and information between the sender and the
              receiver in such a way that the message sent by the sender is same as that received by the receiver.
