Feedback on written assignments
This training focuses on how to provide effective, efficient, and constructive feedback on students’ written work. You will explore different types of feedback (feed-up, feedback, and feed-forward) and levels (task, process, self-regulation, and self) to enhance your feedback practices, identify blind spots, and keep feedback feasible.
