TLC 2 - Feedback (Kirsty, Mich, Mark and Richard)

We chose to look at e-feedback in this session and shared different methods with colleagues. 

We discussed various apps/websites and how they could be used, such as:

Edmodo (written feedback, clear workflow)
Explaineverything (class feedback, great for differentiation- allows students to work at their own pace)
Showbie (media-based work, great usability)
Socrative (aids planning, quick feedback)
Google Drive (peer assessment)

Furthermore, we put the ideas in practice by trying out different methods within the session, such as Explaineverything.

Colleagues noted that of course, some of these methods could be substituted by the traditional written feedback in exercise books etc, but they appreciated how many of these methods were more appealing to students and had other benefits such as being able to share the resources with colleagues and use them again in the future. Furthermore, that some were more useful than others, depending on the subject. 


Comments from colleagues are shown on the attached photo:

 

Colleagues set themselves targets to try out a form of efeedback before the next session and we have already had examples of this shared amongst the group, such as:
