Powerful Learning Podcast
Series 2. Episode 12. Three Misconceptions About Feedback in Education with Luke Rowe, Ph.D.
Have you ever heard of the ‘feedback sandwich’? What about the idea that the best feedback is often given immediately after performance and without delay? And if feedback is simply a transfer of information from one person to another, then why does the research suggest that feedback given is often vastly different from feedback received?
In this episode, we'll discuss some of the topics in which educators tend to habour wonky beliefs and misconceptions about feedback. And these aren’t just benign beliefs – they often taint our thinking and undermine our efforts to improve student learning. The aim is to put these assumptions to the test by drawing upon the research literature from the science of learning to examine and scrutinize some of the more common misconceptions about feedback in education.
If you haven't done so already, you may also want to listen to the previous episode (Episode 11) and an earlier episode (Episode 7) with educational feedback expert, Dr. Luke Mandouit, who shares his research on what effective feedback looks like in the classroom.
Enjoy!
