Giving critical feedback and receiving critical feedback helps students become better "Problem Solvers", critical feedback is all about finding a better, stringer, or more proficient way!

The Power of Critique and Redrafting

Non-Negotiables

1. Be Kind: Always treat others with dignity and respect. This means we never use words that are hurtful, including sarcasm.

2. Be Specific and Truthful: Focus on particular strengths and weaknesses, rather than making general comments like “It’s good” or “I like it.” Provide insight into why it is good or what, specifically, you like about it. 

• “This part is very clear, yet this part is unclear….”
• “I notice the details are not very clear….”
• “I suggest….”
• “I notice….”
• “I wonder if this way….”
• “If this were my work, I would….”

3. Be Helpful and Supportive: The goal is to positively contribute to the individual or the group, not to simply be heard. Echoing the thoughts of others or cleverly pointing out details that are irrelevant wastes time.

4. Participate: Peer critique is a process to support each other, and your feedback is valued!
