Critical Feedback Cycle
The critical feedback cycle is the most important component of the Simcoe County Student Film Festival. Our festival covers Kindergarten through Grade 12. We will have submissions from a variety of courses and grades including communication technology courses where the focus is on the media creation skills, subject area courses where the focus is on the subject content and English or language art programs where the focus is on the literacy skills developed. One set of skills that bridge all grades and subjects are those required to think critically, provide supportive feedback to help others improve and to respond to feedback from others to improve their own work. By setting high standards and asking students to go back and edit their work based on feedback from others, students will need to move out of their comfort zone and push themselves even further.
We are basing our critical feedback process on the Adobe Youth Voices critical response resources.

After our initial submission deadlines, all participants will be asked to provide feedback on other submissions. Then students will have time to improve their media based on feedback before the final submission deadline.
