In the context of Scrum, this dimension reflects the framework's collaborative nature, where feedback sources are not limited to the traditional instructor-student dynamic but include peers and self-reflection [22]. 2. Feedback Timing: Timeliness in feedback is highlighted by Hattie and Timperley's [19] model of effective feedback, which emphasizes the importance of immediate feedback in learning processes.
