The Feedback Knowledge Base
Welcome to the Feedback Knowledge Base
Feedback is at the heart of what we do in the classroom.
Every piece of feedback you deliver, written or verbal, is rooted in your knowledge and understanding.
Your expertise is essential.
When you open that up for learners, you give them a little piece of your insight.
Something that helps them better understand what they are doing, or which helps them target their future effort more effectively.
It’s no wonder feedback can have such a big impact.
When we get high-quality feedback, and have the space and time to act on it, we can change things.
We can use the expertise of the teacher to improve. To move forwards. To take the next step.
And that creates learning gains.
It speeds up learning.
Which makes life better for the learner, and easier for the teacher.
Here, you’ll find over 50 articles covering everything you need to know to think critically about feedback, to use it with impact in your classroom, and to achieve the outcomes you want for your learners.
Most of the articles are short, sharp and to the point.
Practical ideas you can quickly adapt and apply.
If you want to go deeper and develop your thinking further, you’ll find blogs and articles clustered together in groups.
Reading a group is like reading a chapter of a book, giving you scope to dig deep into a particular topic.
