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.
Dr Chung initiated the seminar by sharing her assessment design and feedbacking philosophy in her talk titled “The Art of Assessment: Effective Practices for Providing Feedback that Resonates with Students”. On top of sharing effective practices for providing customised feedback to suit individual student needs and preferences, Dr Chung also introduced a good number of online applications, together with her analysis of their strengths and weaknesses, to facilitate feedbacking for different purposes, and types of assessments.
Dr Ma then enlightened the audience with a thorough scholarly analysis of different kinds of peer feedback strategies, through her sharing titled “Using Peer Feedback to Help Students Generate Internal Feedback: The Power of Comparison”. The whole audience took home the inspiration on how to develop our students’ evaluative capacities through a wide range of in-class and take-home peer review and comparison activities.
The seminar was well attended by a diverse group of nearly 20 academic and administrative staff members who are equally dedicated to facilitating student learning. Overall, the three HSUHK Teaching Excellence Awards (2021/22) Sharing Seminar not only celebrated the award-winning teachers but also provided a platform for educators to share their effective practices and learn from one another, ultimately benefiting the entire academic community.
