Abstract: Feedback information of different forms, such as peer feedback, teacher feedback, or generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) feedback, represent a potentially rich stimulus for development. Feedback literacy fuels improvement in academia, the workplace, and daily life. Academic feedback literacy is important because higher education staff need to develop continuously for their own professional growth and to meet the intensifying demands of academia. This article summarizes key feedback literacy concepts, focuses on the underexplored dimension of academic feedback literacy, and illustrates it through an example of how feedback literacy can inform teaching enhancement.
