Dear Shruti,

Thank you for your question. In this part of the video, the instructor is explaining the importance of constructive and customized feedback. The example is taken from a course on Programming, wherein the question asks learners to predict the output of a program that counts the even numbers between a and b, where the value of a is 1, and b is 9.

Here, the learners would come up with different answers based on their reasoning skills, and these responses are anticipated in the form of options in the MCQ. One of the options is the value 4 (4 even numbers counted), while another option is the value 5. In a case like this, it is advised to offer customized feedback to these options, when selected, so as to make the learners understand, in a constructive manner, the logical reasoning behind arriving to the correct response.

I hope this was helpful. Feel free to reach out if there's anything else.

Best wishes,
Jeanette,
