Tools for developing Learner Autonomy and Self-reflection

1.6. Feedback discussion

Sometimes teachers can opt for an open discussion with a class and ask for as well as provide feedback to the learners. This is best done in a class where there are good relationships and where the teacher cultivates a culture of trust and support. Some learners might not feel confident to speak specifically and at the same time, they might not feel comfortable if the teacher offers some feedback to them in front of the others. However, there are a lot of circumstances where even general (not addressed to an individual) feedback can be helpful and eye-opening for some students.
