Assessment feedback is consistently listed as one of the main concerns of Southampton students completing the National Student Survey. Feedback represents an important way for teaching staff to communicate their thoughts and feelings on how successful, or otherwise, an assessed piece of work has been to their students. From the student perspective, feedback should ideally provide an indication of the level they are operating at within the grading criteria, as well as offering clear and constructive guidance on how they can improve their work in the future. This one hour pilot session aims to bring together teaching staff from across the faculty as a means to discuss feedback. It will identify student requirements and expectations, compare staff approaches within the disciplines present, and reflect on methods to make the provision of useful feedback easier and more effective.
