Teaching and Learning Conference 2019: Exploring students’ perceptions of assessment feedback and moderation processes in higher education: A key to enhancing evaluation practices

Research reveals that students’ perceptions about assessment feedback and moderation significantly influence their approaches to learning. We aim to provide insights into how assessment and feedback procedures are perceived by undergraduate Psychology students at the University of Manchester. We will discuss findings collected via mixed methods and will reflect on students’ perceptions of assessment procedures to improve both our educational practices and enhance our students’ learning. Finally we will introduce an innovative practice which aims to enhance students’ perceptions and knowledge of assessment procedures from question setting to marking and moderation.
