Abstract
The study attempts to examine the impacts of feedback and external knowledge on learning and motivation of underprivileged students. This study preliminarily analyzes the type of feedback and external knowledge needed to help students learn and motivate in their study of science experiments and education. It is part of human learning. This study is the extension of the pilot project which began in 2016. This project highlights the use a science experiment to develop a product while tackling waste, and water and soil pollution surrounding schools and students’ communities. The initial findings show that feedback in terms of recognition of student’s activity through an opportunity to display and purchase of their products from science education, visit by international business committees, and indirect financial support to assist students’ activity have reinforced the continuous improvement in learning and development of students. More studies are needed to specifically look at how these feedback and external knowledge have played a role in single- and double-loop learning of students.
