How will my Feedback be Delivered?

Feedback on a student's progress will be given to the student throughout the course of the module. As part of the continuous assessment, students will receive feedback on their discussion contributions and question submissions at regular intervals throughout the module. The student will also have the opportunity to receive peer feedback on a draft report handed in at least 3 weeks before the final report deadline. All students will receive their final feedback within three weeks of their report submission. Students have the opportunity to receive peer feedback on their presentations from their fellow students. They will also receive feedback from the module coordinator within three weeks of their presentation. Feedback on the short in class test on the sustainable development goals will be provided online automatically by the test software.
