Giving feedback on a text

Have AI review a text for clarity, tone, and completeness.

After this lesson

You ask for concrete feedback without AI simply rewriting the text.

In view · An improvement loop

Feedback you can use

  1. Provide the text with criteria such as clarity, tone and completeness.

  2. Request a passage and a short explanation for each point for improvement.

  3. Adopt useful suggestions and compare the result.

Remember: Targeted feedback points to a place in the text and a reason. Open het volledige schema ↗

Ask for criteria

For example: clarity, tone, missing information, length.

Ask for examples

Have AI indicate per point what could be improved, with a short suggestion.

Maintain control

You decide which feedback to adopt.

New practice example

From explanation to a usable result.

Useful feedback mentions a visible problem, a criterion, and a concrete change.

Fictional practice situation

A fictitious newsletter concept first says participation is free, but later says everyone pays 10 euro. The source mentions exclusively free participation.

View a possible solution

This is how it can be done

Give feedback: “The sentence about 10 euro contradicts the source. Remove that price and maintain free participation. Afterwards, check if any other conditions have been added.” Show both the error and the desired correction.

Why this works

You can test the change afterwards. “Make it better” does not say which problem needs to be solved or which information is reliable.

Make it slightly more difficult

Give three feedback points on your own fictitious concept: one on facts, one on readability, and one on the next step for the reader.

Extra practice, at your own pace. You do not need to submit anything. This does not count towards an automatic assessment.

Your workplace · learning by doing

Make something. See what changes.

Ende, your light pink practice buddy

The fictitious source is included. Only when selecting ‘Let Ende answer’ do you send your assignment to the AI service. Do not use private data.

Checking the AI connection… You can already view the written example.

Your result

No answer yet

Present your assignment to Ende.
Read the answer, change one thing, and compare.

You remain in control

What do you want to improve in your next attempt?

My own check

On this device only. AI answers remain only in this page memory. This is self-review, not a grade.

Why this approach works

You can test the change afterwards. “Make it better” does not say which problem needs to be solved or which information is reliable.

A step further

Give three feedback points on your own fictitious concept: one on facts, one on readability, and one on the next step for the reader.

Try & discover · no obligation

Place source and concept side by side

Adjust the values in the concept. See what difference you would give back to the writer.

Targeted feedback you could provide

  • End time: This value deviates from the source. Check whether the change was actually agreed upon. Ask to retain the source value "11:00", unless a change is confirmed.
  • Contact person: Information from the source is now missing in the concept. Ask to retain the source value "Noor", unless a change is confirmed.

You are only changing three fixed fields of a fictitious concept. This is not a full document analysis or a check of a real upload.

A prompt to get you started

Provide feedback on the text below. Assess clarity, tone, and whether the next step is clear. Provide a short suggestion per point. Do not rewrite the text completely. Text: [tekst].

Apply it

You want feedback on an invitation. The AI only responds: this is a very good text.

Which approach best fits this situation?

  • Request concrete feedback on clarity and the desired action, using text examples.
  • Consider the compliment as sufficient quality control.
  • Have the AI only count the number of adjectives.

With JavaScript, you can check your approach and receive immediate feedback.

Test your insight

Why is it useful to have AI provide feedback instead of rewriting directly?

  • It is faster.
  • You maintain control over what you adjust.
  • AI is always better at writing.
Extra practice

Write a prompt to ask for feedback on a text of your own. Mention at least two criteria.

Criteria: clarity for someone unfamiliar with the subject, and whether the call-to-action is clear.
