Abstract
Feedback is evaluative and provides a student with knowledge of their
performance in a given task (Hounsell, 1987). Feedback is usually given by
academics to facilitate a students improvement (Hester, 2001), yet often it
does not have the desired effect and is unpredictable in terms of enhancing a
students motivation, self-confidence and subsequent effort in future
assessments (Young, 2000). The present study analysed social science
students’ (n=18) conceptions of feedback through the use of drawings
(Kearney & Hyle, 2003) and semi-structured interviews. Eight broad
dimensions were revealed from the data, suggesting varied conceptions of
feedback within the participant group. Delegates will be presented with
selected examples of students conceptions of feedback. Implications for
practitioners when giving students feedback, to improve the student learning
experience will also be discussed.
