Assessment and feedback are inextricable components of the learning process, yet providing feedback that is both effective and engaging can prove to be a formidable challenge. To address this challenge, the Centre for Teaching and Learning hosted the third sharing seminar “Feedback that Fuels Success: Enhancing Learning through Effective Assessments and Peer Feedback” on 27 April 2023 where two more winning teachers of the HSUHK Teaching Excellence Awards (2021/22) were recognised: Dr Holly Chung, Senior Lecturer and Dr Maggie Ma, Assistant Professor, both from the Department of English, School of Humanities and Social Science.
