This will be Half-day workshop with mixed participation (including selected presenters and interested delegates).
This workshop brings together scholars and practitioners to explore interesting examples of effective feedback, demonstrate the use of supporting tools, and explore what and how data can be used to improve the process and richness of feedback for both learners and educators. The workshop has three primary goals:
- Provide a multidisciplinary theoretical foundation for practitioners and researchers in LA for the effective provision of data-informed feedback practices in HE;
- Showcase current implementations of tools and methods which enhance feedback practices, especially around personalisation;
- Promote reflection on both pedagogical and technological approaches to improve feedback practices targeted at the improvement of student learning and their ability to self-regulate learning.
