- 2. Why is feedback important in college?
- 3. Why do instructors give feedback? • To help you improve on future assignments • To clarify expectations on assignments • To help students master the material and build a firm understanding of a topic
- 4. What makes good feedback? • It is educational • It can be used as a reference for future work • It is constructive • It is clear and provides a clear path for making improvements
- 5. How does receiving feedback make you feel?
- 6. Things to keep in mind when you receive feedback • It isn't personal It can be hard to hear feedback, but it isn't a reflection of your personal worth • It doesn't mean that you are "bad" at a course/skill • This provides an opportunity to improve your skills!
- 7. What do we do with the feedback we're given? • Tackle any easy problems first: Spelling, grammar, syntax, math errors, incorrect definitions, etc. • When it comes to clarity: Try reading your work out loud to hear what it sounds like to others. • Return to you notes/sources to find details to include • Look for additional help from friends, tutors, or other instructors • After making changes, check back in to get more feedback
- 8. How do you ask for feedback? • Some instructors don't provide feedback for all assignments; so how do you ask for that feedback? • First, double check that feedback isn't "hidden" on BbLearn • Sometimes you have to click through several pages to see the feedback • Send an email or drop by office hours to connect with the professor • Be specific with your request: • Be clear about what assignment you'd like feedback on • Don’t wait till the end of the semester
- 9. How do you ask for feedback? • Need feedback on more than just your past assignments? • Check out the Writing Center to get feedback on your writing • Meet with a tutor to get feedback on assignments before you turn them in • Connect with Career Services to get feedback on materials for jobs • Seeking out feedback is a great skill to learn in college! It will come up all through life.
- 10. How do you provide feedback? • Some classes require you to give feedback for your peers on assignments • Ensure that your feedback is constructive • Provide clear tips on how your peers can improve their work • Be mindful of your language: think of how you'd like to hear feedback • Concentrate on things that can be fixed: • Grammar, syntax, word choice, math errors etc. • Lack of evidence, confusing language, unclear work/methods
- 11. Example language: • There is some confusion about what you saying. Consider changing your wording to make your argument clearer. • It looks like there are some spelling and grammar errors. I've highlighted/circled them. • Great work! I enjoyed how detailed your story was. • Overall the paper was well written. Adding a bit more detail to your methods section could really take it to the next level. Can you explain the process you used in more detail?
- 12. So why is developing this skill useful? • We give and receive feedback every day. Learning how to use the feedback were given, and give good feedback to others, will help us in many aspects of life. • Let's check this video out to hear more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtl5UrrgU8c
