Feedback literacy, the process by which students make meaning and learn from feedback, is frequently low among post-secondary students, perhaps due to lack of training (Carless & Boud, 2018). We sought to determine if students benefitted from feedback literacy training integrated with mindfulness training. We created a six-lesson, online, interactive wellness resource relating to mindfulness and its application to feedback literacy and embedded it into online course sites from different disciplines (Health Sciences, Medical Sciences, Media Studies, and Law). Twenty-four students completed feedback forms and eight subsequently participated in focus groups. Thematic analysis revealed applicability of mindfulness and feedback literacy to reframing perspectives on academic, personal, and professional feedback. Students expressed greater feedback literacy and a desire to explore mindfulness and well-being for learning upon completing online course training.
