Revised Answer (140 words):
In this lecture, the professor discussed two characteristics of effective feedback. The first characteristic is timely feedback, which means that an art teacher should provide immediate feedback while students are still taking art lessons, allowing them to apply the suggestions to their work right away. The second characteristic is focusing on the work itself rather than on the student, as criticism can lead to negative emotions. Using the same example, if a student uses an inappropriate color, the teacher should suggest using a different color instead of labeling the student as a bad painter, allowing for improvement in future projects. These are the two characteristics of effective feedback.
