formatives are responded to via Canvas and I tell the students to always check for comments]]> 2022-11-02 19:03:41 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367244727 https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245185 Feedback is on paper for paper assignments, on Canvas/Google docs for digital assignments. It is generally written, ususally in short phrases for very narrowly focused comments, and in paragraph format for  holistic feedback.]]> 2022-11-02 19:04:05 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245185 I mostly do everything in canvas. Sometime it can be generic, like "good job!", but when it's a more conceptual assessment, I try to give precise feedback on where they can make improvements going forward. https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245267 2022-11-02 19:04:09 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245267 Feedback routines https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245532 - Oral feedback in class 
- Written feedback on Canvas or Google Doc assignments for every formative 
- Warmups every few weeks include opportunities for students to provide feedback, which I respond to individually. ]]> 2022-11-02 19:04:21 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245532 Canvas comments https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245630 always look for comments even if it is EE]]> 2022-11-02 19:04:27 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245630 I have a meetings with individual students or groups to go over their projects. I often show them as they progress which sections work and which sections we need to add or focus https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245851 2022-11-02 19:04:38 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245851 https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245859 Typically, I use Canvas to give feedback. I always start with something positive and then end with something they can improve on. I include this on summatives and formatives connected to the summative for that topic. If I think of it in the moment, I will also say something when I see them in person regarding the feedback as well.]]> 2022-11-02 19:04:39 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367245859 Where do I include feedback? vincenzogreco2 https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367246321 For formative work, I always leave comments on Google Docs. For summative work, I leave comments on Canvas. For summatives, I copy and paste rubric indicators as well. ]]> 2022-11-02 19:05:01 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367246321 When students are working on formatives independently or in small groups, I rotate throughout the room and check in, provide verbal feedback. For feedback on Canvas, the expectation is for students to look when they can. https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367246729 2022-11-02 19:05:19 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367246729 Rubrics https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367246815 - Grades are done according to publish rubrics on Canvas, which outline examples of correct or proper answers. 
- I discuss these rubrics in connection with any questions about grades or reflections of performance. ]]> 2022-11-02 19:05:24 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367246815 For my NHD projects, I conference with each individual/group and give them verbal feedback. The students add the feedback to a Google doc for reference. I also add feedback to their notecards in NoodleTools. https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367247039

Before reassessment (and at any time) they are invited to meet one on one about any assessment for feedback as well. ]]> 2022-11-02 19:05:37 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367247074 On Canvas - utilizing the rubric to guide the feedback.

I also go over other rubrics with them to have a meaningful discussion on where they and I meet on how each of us think they fall on the rubrics. https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367247935 2022-11-02 19:06:19 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367247935 I give a lot of group feedback at the beginning of the class focusing on issues that I see groups of students all made. I also give individual feedback on most formatives in canvas. For big projects I will be meeting with students individually. https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367248460 2022-11-02 19:06:41 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367248460 Narrow https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367248517 I privilege very focused feedback - in other words, I tend to limit the number of things I give feedback on, focusing on a few things they did well and on only one area of improvement. This makes the feedback more approachable for the student, and leads them to improve in the most significant way possible. Ex: I'd rather give them feedback on the quality of their thesis than their use of the Oxford comma. One will result in dramatic improvement, the other not. Prioritizing what I give feedback on results in greater improvement in the long run.]]> 2022-11-02 19:06:44 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367248517 Rubrics/standards vincenzogreco2 https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367248576 I try to include rubric indicators as comments to let know students where they ended up and why. Then I also add additional feedback on how they could have achieved higher marks on the rubric. ]]> 2022-11-02 19:06:47 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367248576 https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367248748 - Feedback on Canvas

- I like to encourage a classroom that is open, in which students are welcomed to question my teaching style, the content, or the curriculum itself. Ideally, I try to reshape the course to the needs of the students at the end of each year. ]]> 2022-11-02 19:07:36 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367249576 I use an IB rubric on every formative and summative assessment, so students are aware early on what they look like and what they need to do, and to make sure assessment is based on the standards. https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367249622 2022-11-02 19:07:38 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367249622 In LTS, we train students to provide each other with relevant, critical, targeted feedback (no compliment sandwich). Before doing public pitches, I highlight the focal point or skill that we are targeting with our feedback. Then, I try to stay in the background so that the students learn to manage their own learning and development cooperatively. https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367249721 2022-11-02 19:07:43 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367249721 Carefully. https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367249878 2022-11-02 19:07:51 UTC https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367249878 "Open door" vincenzogreco2 https://padlet.com/vincenzogreco2/x974zlu1g5jjk7lg/wish/2367249991 I want students to ask for clarification on the feedback I provide them and ask questions about how to apply that feedback on future assessments.
