“Can I talk to you?” she whispered: Enhancing student learning with formative feedback tutorials

摘要

This poster presents the story of how formative feedback tutorials became a meaningful and efficient way to engage postgraduate students in formative assessment practices on an M-level course. Tracing the development of how these face-to-face feedback tutorials emerged as a support for international postgraduate students to talk about their feedback, the poster illustrates the processes of reflection on practice, the implementation of the new formative assessment practices, and the evaluations made by students and tutor. The experience depicted in the poster demonstrates how formative assessment and talking about feedback can become embedded in the postgraduate student learning experience.
