Timely Descriptive feedback - Once a week students write a paragraph where they must edit themselves, then have a peer edit, then finally have the teacher edit. The sentences get edited multiple times before the paragraph is ready to be handed in. This feedback is immediate and has been VERY effective in improving grammar and sentence structure.

Feedback includes three components: what was done well, what needs improvement, and specific suggestions for how to improve.

E.g. Essay:
Positive - Overall, your structure is strong. Excellent use of paragraphs and transitions.

Improvement suggestions: remember to review MLA format and proofread your work to avoid losing marks on spelling and grammar.

A recent writing exercise focused almost exclusively on correct use of MLA format--a "manageable amount of feedback" was provided to students as a result...

This exercise followed a "diagnostic" writing assignment in which this skill had been identified as an area of potential weakness for many students...

Timing of my feedback provides students with opportunities to use the information while they are still learning and practicing the requisite knowledge and skills

Students are encouraged to concentrate on “continuing progress” rather than the idea of “playing to perfection”.  A fundamental part of my teaching is encouraging students to make mistakes and learn how to recover from them, rather than seeing mistakes as failures. This is best demonstrated when playing an instrument as mistakes are guaranteed. Coping strategies are developed throughout the semester with consistent daily  feedback routine based weekly performance evaluations, and CPTs and Exams following the same routine.

I do try to be as constructive as possible both with rough work and good copies so that students know what they did well (& why), and what they can improve upon

Outlining Criteria & Expectations with students - At the beginning of class, establishing criteria with students and how they will demonstrate their learning.

Conferencing - Meeting with students as they progress through an assessment to provide descriptive feedback on their assessments.

The shared image reflects some descriptive feedback for an essay submission for ENG11U.

The comment addresses a few items: analysis quality and passage integration.

I highlighted a particular point in the essay that can be regarded as an example of a better analysis for the student’s reference.

In English, descriptive feedback is not only critical but it is also a standard evaluating practice that students need to see as much as possible. Though it takes time to do this for all students, it is very much necessary for their writing formation.

This is the starting point for students to scaffold their knowledge. This is followed by a group demonstration of what the students have learned that involves reinforcement of the strengths that they communicate both in words and in movement.

Feedback should be ongoing and consistent. I like to utilize every teachable moment as best as I can. Luckily, during our ESL class I have many opportunities to do so. Feedback is often provided during class discussions (i.e. use of tense, proper pronouns, etc.), journal writing and review (with teacher edits, writing suggestions, and peer edits), and through tasks with small exit tickets/ feedback reflection forms. I have attached a sample feedback form for reference. A feedback form presented in such a way often acts as a form of self-evaluation for students, however, also allows room for teacher input and contribution. :)
