Feedback

Feedback is an important part of the learning experience. It creates an environment where it makes it okay not to be perfect the first time around. A wiki can be used in a variety of ways to foster positive and effective feedback to help students.


 * 1) Student Portfolios
 * 2) Peer review of assignments
 * 3) Peer edition of assignments
 * 4) Teacher Feedback during the Assessment as Learning phase

I find that feedback is more effective when it comes from peers. Allowing students to post their work and have their peers be allowed to edit and comment would be very beneficial. It might also encourage those "reluctant writers" to produce more elaborate pieces if they know that their work will be displayed and critiqued openly. - Heather G.
