Aims: To enable participants to consider the place and process of
gathering feedback and evaluation from their students. To share,
compare and critique existing practice so that participants can
identify and develop relevant and effective procedures to suit the
needs of their particular circumstances.
We will be exploring approaches to feedback in terms of theory whilst
considering the range of practice that is currently used in a variety
of contexts. We will look in particular at feedback methodologies
that might be more appropriate within the loci of Art and Design
courses. We will discuss the relationship between feedback gathered
for teaching enhancement and course development purposes and the
imperatives for the systematic gathering of evaluation for
institutional quality assurance practices and policies.
The workshop will consider the variety of feedback methods that
tutors can use and their effectiveness when employed to evaluate:-
a) individual teaching sessions;
b) projects, units or modules;
c) full reviews of courses (named programmes of study).
Participants:
The day is intended for tutors, course designers and leaders, and
staff with particular responsibilities for quality assurance
