Feedback Loop

A feedback loop is a process where the outcome of an activity influences future actions. For example, in learning, if you study hard and get a good grade, that success boosts your motivation, encouraging you to study even more effectively next time. Conversely, if the outcome is negative, like poor performance, it may prompt changes in your approach. Feedback loops can be positive, reinforcing desired behaviors, or negative, prompting adjustments to improve outcomes. They are fundamental in various fields, including biology, engineering, and social systems, helping to regulate and improve processes over time.
