Accumulating studies suggest including multiple feedback components such as evaluation and suggestion within one feedback unit is beneficial, yet how various feedback components are formulated and their learning effect remain understudied. This study examined the formulation pattern of different feedback components in the feedback given and received by groups with different levels of learning improvement. In social studies classrooms in Singapore, fourteen groups of secondary schoolers (n=61, female=61) participated in giving peer feedback during collaborative argumentation activities. Collaborative argumentation and feedback components of each group were collected and analyzed. The result reported that more improvement groups tended to give and receive feedback that included an evaluation or position component before giving suggestions. No-improvement groups were more likely to give and receive feedback that started with a supportive standpoint of the reviewed content before opposing standpoints. The findings provide insights for the implementation of effective peer feedback in authentic classroom settings.
