[Academic] Student Feedback

[Brian]

Dear All,

There are sometimes comments in student surveys and module evaluations 
about feedback, or perceived lack of it. There is a document online 
which gives University guidance on what constitutes feedback (and 
assessment) and what students should expect:

https://www.strath.ac.uk/media/other/learningteaching/Making_the_most_of_your_assessment_and_feedback.pdf

As you can see this defines wide range of feedback types, some probably 
not considered as feedback by many students.

I will be sending this link to students so that they know what our 
definitions of feedback are so that they are more aware of when they 
receive feedback. Please use the term 'feedback' when giving it to 
students. This may help reduce some students' perceived lack of it.

Thanks,

Brian
