This is an interactive session designed for you to share any concerns
you might have or support you might need to help with designing and
providing effective feedback. You will have the opportunity to assess
and evaluate examples of staff feedback to students with peers and
reflect on the experience. This workshop will give you the space to
share best practices in feedback and explore what could work for you.

Outcomes:

1. Identify the purpose of feedback and methods to provide feedback.
2. Identify effective ways of providing and delivering feedback.
3. Identify actions you could take and improvements you could make with
future feedback.

This synchronous session will build on the asynchronous Foundations in
Teaching content on feedback in your teaching. This is an online
session, held via MS Teams. You will work in breakout rooms to discuss
experiences, challenges, and concerns around designing feedback
opportunities and providing effective feedback. These discussions will
allow you to share best practice and identify actions you can take with
your own future practice.

Learning and Teaching Methods:

Participants will be guided on how to share their reflections in
facilitated breakout activities, and how to use those discussions to
develop actions.
