Theme Assessment, feedback and 2012
• We have been a more autonomous faculty for just over 3 years
• In that time, driven by external and internal factors, we have made a conscious effort to improve the quality and timeliness of assessment and feedback
• This has gone hand in hand with a desire to improve the student learning experience through more and better formative assessment

Ways of providing feedback
• There are numerous ways of providing feedback to students
• I’m going to ask a few questions and then we’ll have a discussion

Discussion points (20 minutes)
• Is feedback important?• Is it needed on all modules?• Do students need to be taught how to use
feedback?• Do we want a unified “faculty” approach?• How do we reach out to the “average”
lecturer; should we?
