Description

This resource stems from an interdisciplinary project that examines how qualitative and quantitative student feedback and evaluation of teaching methods, at module and programme level, can help to enhance student learning and contribute to the continuing professional development of staff who teach.

Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it

This literature review focuses on student feedback; a companion piece on teaching evaluation will also be produced as part of the initiative outputs. The author hopes that the review will also prove to be a useful resource for those working in related fields. The project also developed a series of how-to guides to provide practical advice on a range of feedback approaches to staff and students. An executive summary of the literature review is also available in the supplementary files.
