Implicit feedback is when you tell someone what you like without actually saying it out loud.
Imagine you’re playing with your favorite toy, and every time you see a new toy, you pick it up and play with it, that's implicit feedback! You're not telling anyone "I like this toy," but by choosing to play with it, you're showing them what you like.
Like Choosing Your Snack
Think about snack time. If your favorite snack is cookies, and every time you see a plate of snacks, you grab the cookies first, that's implicit feedback! You’re not saying "I love cookies," but by choosing them over other snacks, you're letting everyone know what you like best.
It’s Like a Secret Message
Sometimes, even if you don’t say it out loud, your actions can send a message. If you always pick the red ball to play with instead of the blue one, that's implicit feedback too! You’re not telling anyone "I like the red ball," but by choosing it every time, you're showing them what you prefer.
So next time you choose your favorite toy or snack without saying a word, remember, you're giving implicit feedback!
Examples
