Learning-Centred Feedback (or how to be helpful)

As part of each mini-cycle, you will be involved in either giving or receiving constructive, learning-centred feedback. This is an important component of the ISW process, and has been shown to have great impact on our participants.

There will be a series of “feedback forms” for you to choose from. These have been created using Microsoft Forms so you can easily duplicate the form you would like to use for your own session. Some forms offer open-ended written responses, and some are more focused on specific components of the mini-lesson – everyone has their own reasons for choosing their own feedback forms. Once you duplicate the form (instructions to follow), you will be able to give the link to everyone in your group to provide feedback, and you will be the only one who can see the results.

Learning-Centred Feedback Lesson Plan

B:  Feedback has the potential to be the most useful teaching tool.  And . . . we are going to give and receive feedback a lot during this workshop.

O:  To identify characteristics of helpful feedback and use them in our small groups.

P:  Question: How many of you have given feedback in the past?  How many have received it?

P:  Helpful feedback:  What works?  What doesn’t?

S:   Refer to page 1.28 for more details.

Post-test?  This will happen during the lesson cycles later.
