How to Give Effective Feedback to your students
The Micro View-Oral Feedback
When and Where to give individual feedback:
Quietly, at the student's desk
At your desk; either informally or as conference time
At a specifically scheduled out-of-class time
When and Where to give group feedback:
at the start of a lesson
at the beginning of a review or reteaching lesson
during student performances
when a test or assignment is returned
An Overview
Feedback is part of Formative Assessment
Feedback is part of the formative learning cycle
The Three Lenses
Feedback is a part of grading
The Micro View-Characteristics of the Feedback Message
Feedback arose from the psychological theory called behaviorism
Feedback needs to describe where students are in relation to the learning they are aiming for
Consider:
Timing
Amoung
Mode
Audience
Consider Content:
Focus
Comparison
function
valence
clarity
specificity
tone
The Snapshot View-Feedback as an Episode of Learning
Teachers who are expert at formative assessment will address the specific needs
when learners self regulate, they set goals and then systematically carry out procedures that move them closer to that goal
Effective feedback:
Helps clarify what good performance is
facilitates development of self-assessment
delivers high-quality info to students about their learning
encourages teacher/peer dialogue
provides opportunities to close the gap between current and desired performance
The Long View-Does Feedback Improve Learning?
Feedback can lead to learning only if the students have opportunities to use it
feedback is effective if it feeds forward
Model how to give and use feedback
Teach self-assessment skills
teach peer-assessment skills
Give ground rules for peer editing
Be clear about the learning targets and criteria for Good work
The Micro View-Written Feedback
Clarity is important; students need to understand the feedback info as you intend
Feedback should be specific; not too narrow, not too broad, but just right
use correct tone; it affects how the message will be "heard"
Where to Write Feedback:
Directly on the work
Annotations on rubrics
A combination of both
Content-Specific Suggestions for Feedback
Elementary Reading/Writing
Progress sheet
circle and write on incorrect writing
Secondary writing
"your sentences read pretty smoothy
"you say your brothers all moved out. Are you the youngest?"
Textbook comprehension in science
"I see you figured out that this problem asks you to make a list of combinations of ice cream flavors and containers"
You didn't answer the second part of the question"
Consistency across area subjects
Adjusting Feedback for Different Learners
Some students who are interested and engaged in learning will hear almost any feedback message eagerly
Students who struggle may not completely understand what your assignment asks them to do or your feedback on their work
The key feedback issue for english language learners is their ability to hear and understand the feedback
Reluctant students are struggling students
