Formative feedback through conversations: “Now we’re talking!”
We have introduced a comprehensive process of verbal feedback into a core second year module to complement the written feedback we provide. We have adopted a collaborative approach where both academic and professional services colleagues have worked together to provide feedforward through conversations with students. We have learned that making scheduled appointments for feedback meetings encourages participation. This makes our practice more inclusive because it brings in those students who have no draft to discuss and who would not therefore be able to benefit from a traditional formative feedback opportunity.
