Teacher and peer feedback

[Charlainesi]

Thought I’d start the ball rolling and use the format suggested by Fearghal Kelly so here goes….
– what do you want to achieve?
I would like to be more competent at structured feedback, I think at the moment I tend to shy away from being too critical and although this encourages pupils I don’t feel any effect beyond my classroom.

– why do you want to achieve it?
Achieving this would allow pupils to become better learners in the context of my subject and hopefully transfer their learning into different areas

– what would success look like from the pupils’ perspective?
Pupils have more specific target on how to improve their learning

– how do you intend to make the change?
Peer assessment requires pupils to have language which can be critical but not criticise and I need to structure and model good practice in this. I feel that quality success criteria may be a good start linked with AifL to gauge learning

– what difficulties might you encounter?
In using AifL to gauge learning, sometimes I feel pupils give what they think you want rather than where they are in their learning
.
– what would help address these difficulties?
I need to be more inventive in how I collate responses of how pupils are feeling about their learning so I intend to become better at using quizdom etc to capture data.

-what am I doing now?
More thinking about this than actually doing anything about it to be honest!
