Feedback
Information about performance or behaviour
that leads to action to affirm or develop that
performance or behaviour
![Page 3: Delivering and Receiving Feedback](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070404/56813aea550346895da3504c/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Purpose of feedback
• Enables the receiver to recognise what
they do well so they can continue doing it
• Enables the receiver to understand where he/she needs to develop and change

Does feedback work?
Black and William 1998 – meta analysis of >250 studies of formative assessment with feedback since 1988 from all educational sectorsFeedback resulted in positive benefits on learning and achievement across all areas, knowledge and skill types and levels of education

Conditions for successful feedback
For students to benefit from feedback, the student must1. possess a concept of the goal/standard or
reference level being aimed for2. compare the actual (or current) level of
performance with that goal or standard3. engage in appropriate action which leads to some
closure of the gapSadler 1989

Conditions for successful feedback
Often point 2 is the focus of feedback and falls
short on point 3

7 principles of good feedback practice
1. facilitates the development of self-assessment (reflection) in learning
2. encourages teacher and peer dialogue around learning
3. helps clarify what good performance is (goals, criteria, expected standards)
4. provides opportunities to close the gap between current and desired performance

7 principles of good feedback practice
5. delivers high quality information to students about their learning
6. encourages positive motivational beliefs and self-esteem
7. provides information to teachers that can be used to help shape the teaching

Tips – Before giving feedbackalways ask yourself:• What is my intention behind giving this person
feedback?• How am I feeling about giving it?• How is the other person feeling; if they have
had a stressful day, might be best left for another occasion. It is important they are in the right frame of mind to accept it
BOTH PEOPLE SHOULD FEEL CALM

Tips –Feedback rules
• timely • selective • balanced• suggestions • descriptive • specific • directed
![Page 11: Delivering and Receiving Feedback](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070404/56813aea550346895da3504c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Tips –Feedback rules
• timely: given as close to the event as possible (taking account of the person’s readiness etc)
• selective: addressing one or two key issues rather than too many at once
• balanced: good and the bad• suggestions: not prescriptions
![Page 12: Delivering and Receiving Feedback](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070404/56813aea550346895da3504c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Tips –Feedback rules
descriptive, non-judgemental, based on behaviour not personality
"I notice that you don’t look at people when they are talking to you. You said you couldn’t understand why people don’t listen to you. Do you think this might have something to do with it?
"I think you’re selfish in that you don’t listen to anyone else".
![Page 13: Delivering and Receiving Feedback](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070404/56813aea550346895da3504c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Tips –Feedback rules
specific or focussed, in order to focus developmental feedback
avoid personal comments/avoid mixed messages/avoid diffusion
![Page 14: Delivering and Receiving Feedback](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070404/56813aea550346895da3504c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Tips –Examples
“you fool! Cant you remember that I needed these accounts for the meeting yesterday?’

‘Some of you are not achieving your performance goals. You have to improve.’
‘Richard, you have not achieved your performance goals this week. Can we talk about it & work out some plans to improve?’

Tips –Feedback rules
directed towards behaviour that can be changed
‘I really don’t like your face/your height/the fact that you are bald etc’
‘It would help me if you smiled more or looked at me when you speak’
![Page 16: Delivering and Receiving Feedback](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070404/56813aea550346895da3504c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The Impact of FeedbackThe person receiving the feedback can react with:• anger – ‘I’ve had enough of this’• denial – this reaction often accompanies the initial
shock of feedback ‘I can’t see any problem with that’• blame – ‘It’s not my fault. What can you expect when
the patient won’t listen?• rationalisation – finding excuses to try and justify their
behaviour ‘I’ve had a particularly bad week’ ‘Doesn’t everyone do this?’
• acceptance• renewed action

Feedback formats
• written/verbal individualised eg a particular assignment
• written/verbal general feedback to a group eg on most common errors/successes on an exam paper
• checklists/proforma eg headings of assessment criteria, with comments below
![Page 18: Delivering and Receiving Feedback](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070404/56813aea550346895da3504c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Feedback formats
• assessment criteria grid, showing where student is placed against each criteria
• model answers
• computerised eg multiple-choice questions
• "Off the cuff" comments from others eg "You're really good at”
![Page 19: Delivering and Receiving Feedback](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070404/56813aea550346895da3504c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Record verbal feedback
Ensure it is written down
• IRCP comments• Student takes notes for PDP
