Exploring the different types of feedback in e-learning 

Feedback in e-learning is a vital tool for guiding learners and enhancing understanding. From the Minimalist “Correct/Incorrect” approach for quick recall tasks to Short Explanation feedback that clarifies why answers are right or wrong, each type serves a purpose. Direct Consequence feedback highlights immediate cause-and-effect, while Long-Term Consequence feedback reveals the ripple effects of decisions over time, promoting strategic thinking. By tailoring feedback to match learning objectives, instructional designers can create engaging and impactful experiences that help learners make better decisions, both in the moment and with future outcomes in mind.
