What to do with Feedback
What to do with Feedback
Summarize and share results of assignments, assessments, and feedback using percentages
Tell students what you will do. This encourages students to reflect on and adjust their own learning strategies.
Model lifelong learning and resiliency. Admit when something did not work. “I’m going to try this…”
Make an FAQ. Use it in future courses as a channel
Seek out feedback from colleagues. Consult with peers, administrative, or faculty development specialists to get outside perspective.
Document your teaching practices. Take notes in a teaching journal after each class.
Look for patterns. Find common errors, and what needs to be reviewed or re-taught. Act on student achievement data throughout the semester.
