What is constructive feedback?

Constructive feedback is specific and seeks to provide clear feedback on things that are working well and areas for improvement. It will reference specific actions/experiences (for example, specific course content or project) then elaborates on why it was helpful or how it might be improved (for example, this specific project helped me to understand the safety protocols for when I am working in the field.
