Teachers’ Feedback: How Do Ibri College Students View it?

Abstract

Feedback is considered an essential part of the educational process. It is important for bridging and narrowing the gap between giving and receiving information. When utilized in the proper way, feedback reinforces students’ motivation and increases their attention to teachers’ comments. Thus, a crucial question to be asked in this regard is whether students are benefiting from the feedback they receive from their teachers and to what extent. Bearing this in mind, while attempting to revealing one side of the story- students’ perspectives- a questionnaire was distributed among (30) students at Ibri College of Science and Technology (IBRI CAS) in the Sultanate of Oman. The results are positive and show that students do benefit and are grateful to the feedback and comments they receive from their teachers. Explanations, discussion, recommendations will be discussed deeply and in detail throughout this study.
