Examples of Feedback  
 
These examples are from teacher educators in a previous MOOC.  The course team have selected these examples to illustrate aspects of helpful feedback.  We encourage you to use these as models for your own feedback.  

Example 1
I noticed this response because it talks about approaching the problem in a humane way which is missing in the modern curriculum, most of the time. It is not enough if the teacher transacts the course contents inside the class; he/she has to ensure that the learners grow as complete human beings. The adaptations for the OER are clearly explained but it would have been good to have a link to the original and to the adapted version. 

TESS-India TEAM comment:  This feedback emphasises an aspect of the response in line with policy and explains why it is important. It also provides some advice for a future assignment. 

Example 2
I noticed the use of mother tongue, and how the teacher can use it to enrich the class. I liked the example about the French Revolution. It would have been helpful to emphasise how it can be used in other subjects such as Maths and Science, not just the language classes. 

This feedback highlights a key feature of participatory pedagogy in the response (inclusion of all learners) and a suggestion for how it could be extended to more of the curriculum. 

Example 3
I like the way he notices the girls and tries to introduce more activities so that the student is able to express herself. He suggests how reading aloud, making gestures and giving feedback are a few key points which will help in the better understanding of the students. I would like to suggest that drama and making up songs could also be used to enliven the text and improve understanding. 

This feedback highlights the participation of girls and how the teacher is making learning opportunities available to them.  The feedback also encourages the participant to consider other ideas to support participation in their classroom.
