STUDENT REFLECTION ON FEEDBACK AND ASSESSMENT
In the academic year 2020-21 we are asking you, as the starting point for your
summative assessments, to complete this individual Student Reflection on Feedback
sheet when you submit your work.
This coversheet invites you to think about feedback you have received at earlier points
in your course and how you have responded to it in this new piece of work. Thinking
carefully about the feedback you have received previously can help to improve your
performance. It is helpful, too, for the marker to know what feedback you have had
previously on similar pieces of work, and how you have tried to act on it. Knowing the
range of different kinds of feedback you have had can also help us to use more those
kinds that are most helpful to you.
Either in a comment on what you write here, or in their feedback to you, your marker
will engage with your reflection. The extent to which you have improved on previous
pieces of work will NOT affect your mark. Your work will be marked on the basis of its
own merits as a piece of academic work, NOT on the basis of the answers you give in
the box below. Instead, your response will help us to work with you to make feedback
helpful.
