The Sandwich Method of feedback consists of:

The Sandwich Method of feedback consists of:

• A. Positive feedback, then corrective feedback, then final negative feedback
• B. Positive specific feedback, constructive feedback on what is wrong, positive feedback with cues on how to correct
• C. Global praise, general feedback, then no further feedback
• D. None of the above

Answer: (B)

This question tests how feedback is typically structured to support improvement while maintaining motivation. The description that fits the Sandwich Method is to begin with positive, specific feedback about what was done well, follow with constructive feedback on what needs improvement, and finish with positive feedback that includes clear cues or steps on how to correct the issue. Starting with specific praise reinforces what’s working and builds confidence, which makes the learner more receptive to the upcoming critique. The middle part targets the exact area to change, expressed in concrete, observable terms so the learner knows precisely what to adjust. Ending with supportive feedback that also offers actionable guidance gives a clear path forward and leaves the interaction on an encouraging note, helping the learner stay motivated to implement the change. The other descriptions miss one or more of these elements: they either end with negative or vague feedback, or they omit actionable guidance altogether, which reduces usefulness and can dampen motivation.
