Custom Feedback Layers: Show feedback tailored to learner answers

Deliver personalized, layered feedback based on what learners actually choose — for deeper understanding, not just “right” or “wrong.”

What It Is

Custom Feedback Layers are smart features that deliver tailored messages or content based on the learner’s specific answer — beyond just right or wrong. Whether it’s a detailed explanation, a relevant resource, or a scenario consequence, each response triggers its own unique feedback layer.

Unlike generic quiz feedback, this lets you coach learners through each decision, guiding deeper understanding and practical application.

When to Use It

  • In scenario-based training, to reveal consequences or rationale behind every choice
  • For compliance and policy training, to explain the “why” behind rules, not just the “what”
  • In sales and service simulations, to reinforce best practices for customer interactions
  • For technical training, where different errors need distinct remediation steps
  • In reflection activities, where subjective answers gain from personalized guidance

Why It Works

  • Promotes deeper learning by clarifying why each choice is correct or incorrect
  • Reduces repeat mistakes with targeted, contextual feedback
  • Increases engagement by making every decision meaningful and impactful
  • Supports long-term retention through personalized reinforcement and repetition
  • Improves ROI by minimizing retraining and clearing misconceptions early

Impact Insight
Imagine a learner making a wrong choice — then instantly getting coaching that clarifies what went wrong and how to improve. That’s more than feedback; that’s transformation.
