Feedback Strategy/Strategies

• Feedback individually to students, post-assessment

How will my Feedback be Delivered?

Feedback on MCQ in the form of correct answers to the quizzes will be released online two weeks after each quiz ends, and once any in-term resits have been completed. Students are encouraged to review all their answers, and to take particular note of the correct answers to the questions they answered incorrectly. The end-of-term project (Digital Poster) will be assessed using a qualitative rubric attached to the letter grade awarded. Any exceptional comments that concern issues around academic integrity or late submission will be recorded individually and separately. Any student who fails the assessment will receive an explanation as to why.
