Short Notes on feedback

The term 'feedback' means the return of the result or response of a particular communication from the receiver. Feedback is frequently used in communication to convey the repercussion of the receiver what he perceives from the message received earlier. So feedback is the return message or response from the receiver to the sender. It is a response from the receiver to the sender. It is a response from the receiver that informs the sender. It is a response from the receiver that informs the sender how the message is being interpreted and how the communication is received in general.

When a message is received, decoded and understood by the receiver, he is expected to show some response or reaction; he may take some action or reply or behave in a particular way as a result of message received. For completion of the communication process the communicator needs to know whether the receiver has responded in the desired way or not, he can find this out by getting feedback from the receiver. Thus feedback is knowledge of result of a particular communication; it can be used for modifying the future course of action relating to communication. No communication is complete without feedback. It completes the circle of two way communication.
