<strong>Generic / Specific</strong>

Generic feedback means, that the student gets standardized feedback that addresses the level of the performance. Generic feedback has to be created carefully in order to provide different types of learners with sufficient feedback. When generic feedback is developed, it can be re-used without further adjustments.

Specific feedback is given to individuals or groups. The specific feedback depends both upon the context and challenges.
