TitleUpward Feedback: Exploring learner perspectives on giving feedback to their teachers. SummaryFeedback from learners is known to be an important motivator for medical teachers, but it can be de-motivating if delivered poorly, leaving teachers frustrated and uncertain. Research has identified challenges learners face in providing upward feedback, but has not explored how challenges influence learners’ goals and approaches to giving feedback. This study explored learner perspectives on providing feedback to teachers to advance understanding of how to optimize upward feedback quality. The datafile, Study 3_Student Feedback to Teachers.nvpx, is an NVivo file containing interview transcripts with 16 medical student participants.
